So refreshing after some of the shite names that have been suggested on here lately.
John or Johnny…or Jonno as my ds’s very cool friend goes by!

Dacadactyl · 22/03/2024 15:56

Definitely a yay from me. A strong, solid and timeless name.

No

JustMaggie · 22/03/2024 15:26

I love it, a timeless classic

Berlinlover · 22/03/2024 15:25

Very dull.

Love John, it was a strong contender for DS who was born last year. Classic and very underused these days.

Love it. Classy. About time it had a popularity surge.

KirstenBlest · 22/03/2024 15:22

I like it and Johnny. I'd rule out Jonathon though - it looks like a typo. Jonathan is fine but it ends up being Jon.

MissusKay · 22/03/2024 15:22

Classic and not overused. I like it

Topseyt123 · 22/03/2024 15:21

I do like it. I think I prefer Jonathan or Johnnie, but John is good.

TotalDramarama24 · 22/03/2024 15:20

There are a lot of lawyers at work called Jon or Jonathan. It's ok but I'm not overkeen on John just because I work in the US a lot and John is what they all call the toilet.

Underhisi · 22/03/2024 15:17

I like it.

yellowrosee · 22/03/2024 15:17

Love it. Can be Jonathon, John or Johnny ... versatile, timeless and classy

Overtheatlantic · 22/03/2024 15:15

Adore it!

Moreteaandchocolate · 22/03/2024 15:13

Love it! A brilliant classic that’s so underused at the moment.

Orangeandnavy · 22/03/2024 15:13

Perfect. So understated and classy.

ForNaiceHiker · 22/03/2024 15:11

impossibly sensible and safe and dull
