The person who is considering it pronounced it Jolly On. I've only ever seen it written down. We are northern though 😀

There's a lot of negativity here - it's such a fab name op.

Bloody awful. Looks like combo of Joleen and Jog On.

LOVE. Was on my list. Classic but not overused. Plus I'm a big fan of the Forsythe Saga.

Its ok if you're terribly posh and he'll go to Eton or Harrow.
