Alex

Much prefer the name Alex, plus I know three Jasons:

One assaulted me
One I considered a very close friend until he told EVERYONE we knew one of my darkest secrets
One is a cat Hmm

Oh no, four sorry! One is my old next door neighbour, and he was horrible too!

Casey123 · 08/06/2014 16:37

I prefer Jason.

Definitely Alex!

Jason, since it's less common nowadays and I prefer Alex as a nickname for Alexander.

RAFWife12 · 08/06/2014 18:54

I prefer Alex, but I would use as a nickname for Alexander. Never really liked Jason as a name.

Angelto5 · 08/06/2014 19:06

OH is a Jason but insists on being called jay as he hates his full name. Personally out of the two-Alex or Jason ,I prefer Alex.

Alex

JaycesMummy · 08/06/2014 19:16

I'd choose Jason, I've always loved the Jason, I know 2 people with the name and I can them Jayce, and that's why I decided to call my son.

SomethingAboutNothing · 08/06/2014 19:18

Alex, definitely!

devoncreamtea · 08/06/2014 19:19

I like Alex best.

Alex

Jason is not nice imvho.

MirandaGoshawk · 08/06/2014 19:25

They are both classics, both Greek heroes. I do love Jason though.

RoseberryTopping · 08/06/2014 19:27

Another vote for Alex.

restandpeace · 08/06/2014 19:29

Alex

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/06/2014 20:34

Neither, sorry. But if I had to - Alex.

Pebbles0934 · 08/06/2014 20:43

Alex.

I really don't like Jason. Sorry!!

almapudden · 08/06/2014 20:46

Jason. I think it's due a revival.

MarianneBrandon · 09/06/2014 11:18

Jason

squoosh · 09/06/2014 14:08

Alex. Poor old Jason has a fine heritage, it's just seen as a bit 70's and naff. It will definitely have a revival at some stage and people will think 'ugh Alex is so 2014. Jason is much cooler'.
