To be pronounced to rhyme with maze?

I prefer Jaze as it's simpler but my DP thinks Jayze looks more solid as a name. We don't like traditional names so James is off the menu. We liked Jay but it's a bit overdone and more boring.

Good fucking grief. Neither.

Only celebrities can get away with "unusual" names for their offspring. Us mere mortals need regular, boring names in order to be taken seriously at job interviews and such like.

Not a great name.

Could you do it as a nickname for Jayson?

crumpet · 14/08/2022 17:49

Not a fan, but is up to you. Will face a lifetime of Jay-zee pronunciations mind you.
