Saw film with leading character with this name (A Star Is Born).
Really liked the name. What do you think?

Patti Smith had a son called Jackson and wrote the most lovely song about him when he was small, I've consequently always felt rather warmly towards the name!

I know a couple of Jaxon's that were named after sons of anarchy character. I quite like it.

It's a bit modern for me but if you like it use it.

Sounds like the troublesome child in the class

I love it

CherryValance · 01/03/2019 20:43

I like it more than other surname names. Famous artist with the name too, so it's not just completely 21st century. Can be shortened to Jack if wanted. Also I know someone with a nice one.

Stonewall?

Not a fan of the surnames as first names thing - sorry.

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 01/03/2019 20:26

No sorry. It’s a surname for a start.

Bellaposey · 01/03/2019 20:17

It's really common and (sorry) it sounds it.
