Any thoughts?

Awful

Alwaystired2023 · 10/05/2024 21:22

Yes it's a lovely name, as you see names are very divisive so the only thing that matters is what you think OP

SleepyRooster · 10/05/2024 21:20

Jaxxxon

DoloresDelEriba · 10/05/2024 21:20

Ghastly

Angelof29th · 10/05/2024 21:19

I know a lovely little boy called Jaxon.

AgnesX · 10/05/2024 21:15

Loathe it. With the X it makes me want to grind my teeth.

A simple Jackson is manageable.

sanityisamyth · 10/05/2024 21:14

It's awful.

sunnydaysanddaydreams · 10/05/2024 21:13

Really awful

OldTinHat · 10/05/2024 21:05

Hate it. The only baby I knew with that name went one step worse...Jaxson!

JoJothegerbil · 10/05/2024 21:04

Awful. Don't.

0wlQueen · 10/05/2024 21:04

Not my style but I don't hate it.

I'd find Jason more interesting choice.

112orbust · 10/05/2024 21:02

That name always reminds me of poor little Jaxon Strong who lived such a miserable life, courtesy of his deluded parents, before dying at 5 years old.
Go with Jackson.

Moreteaandchocolate · 10/05/2024 21:00

I know a teenage Jackson and it suits him. It’s not my usual style of names but I don’t dislike it at all.

RogersOrganismicProcess · 10/05/2024 20:56

If you like the sound, Jackson would be a better spelling for the child’s future.

stormonaspringmorn · 10/05/2024 20:54

I know a Jaxon, Jaxson and a Jaxxon.

All awful.

Jackson is bearable

Eggmoobean · 10/05/2024 20:52

No. Awful.

skippy67 · 10/05/2024 20:52

No, don't like it at all.

Toddlerteaplease · 10/05/2024 20:50

Awful and very common now. We get at least one a week at work. Not as bad as Jaxxon though.

Charlie2121 · 10/05/2024 20:50

Absolutely appalling chav name. Wouldn’t look out of place in a Vicky Pollard sketch.

Sunnnybunny72 · 10/05/2024 20:49

Bad

IncompleteSenten · 10/05/2024 20:46

It's not the worst I've heard. Do you love it?

Glitterbiscuits · 10/05/2024 20:46

Spelled Jackson is better.
The one I know is Jaxson. X and S.

RaininSummer · 10/05/2024 20:45

Not keen. Didn't even realize it was meant to sound like Jackson as I kind of said it as 'jacks on'. I do like Jax however so Jackson known as Jax seems good .

justmyluck1234 · 10/05/2024 20:42

I'm going to go against the latter here... I really like the name. (Mumsnet definitely doesn't on the other hand 😂)

User284732 · 10/05/2024 20:40

It's extremely popular, so I wouldn't worry about people thinking it unusual, I've met at least 5. I prefer Jackson.
