Just getting opinions.. I like both but love one and I wonder general consensus. I realise not to everyone's taste but more 'traditionally' chosen boy's names aren't for me ('traditionally' meaning more commonplace I guess, as of course, Jesse is very 'traditional' in a biblical sense..) Thanks in advance...

It would appear to me OP...that you LOVE Jesse!

So go for that..you don't need us lot to convince you Grin Grin

Definately Jesse I live this name. I am expecting a DD but if she turns out to be a he then I will be pushing DH to use this as I love it. Monty is awful in comparison.

Jesse is lovely!

Montgomery very try-hard, getting pretty popular now.

Sorry MONTY. I assume a lot of them are Montgomerys. They could be Montmorency of course!

Monty is Boden wearing loud parenting twattery. Poor bastard, it's a vile , vile name FFS!

Agree. Although I do love Monty Burns Grin

I am not a big fan of Jesse but if the only other option is Monty, please call him Jesse.
Sorry, but Monty is just wrong.

I don't like either.

Def Jesse but I am biased Wink

Jesse is too girly for me (too close to Jess/Jessica), I'm afraid. I quite like Monty though.

Definitely Jesse - think of Jesse Spencer (Dr Chase in House/Billy from Neighbours).

Our pet mouse was called Monty...... Marshall Montgomery, Monty Burns...nope...
