What are your real, true feelings on...

Jackson?

awful.

Awful

I don't like it.

Horrid. Sorry.

didn't Charlize Theron just adopt a boy named Jackson? get in quick before it gets too popular!

It's a surname.

I like Nathan but Charlie Brick is a very cool name.

Makes me think of the johnny cash song

I think of Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie, who kind of makes me like the name even though it would not normally be my style. I am not really into surnames as first names. I'd say I am neutral on Jackson but do like Jack.

Too American, Jack is lovely though

[Michael] Jackson

Yep. That's my association.

The more I think about it, the more I like it. Jackson Brick is a great name, and if you love Jack, it's a fab nickname.

I wouldn't go too much by UK reactions to the name (in the nicest possible way). :)

I love Johnny Cash and that's what I first thought of when I read your post. I do like Jackson as a name. Kate Atkinson has a character called Jackson Brodie.

If I'd been a boy,would have been called Jackson,after my dad's hero,the American jazz trombonist,Jack Teagarden. Sounds fine to me!
