Jersey for a girl

[KaraokeQueenOfTheNorth]

Just wondering what people think of the name Jersey for a girl?

I live in England and would think cow, jumper or island. It really isn't a name.

No way. That's not nice at all. It's actually weird.

I know of someone with a baby girl named Jersey.

I don't really like it though.

Thank you for the replies :)

Surname Royal?

Well, initially I thought NO....then I thought Why Not? Then I thought Jersey Cow.

Potatoes. New ones.

Is this another joke thread, in the worthy cause of cheering MNers up?

Perhaps connected to the thread from a couple of weeks ago about the poster who was not, nor had ever been a cow?

Call her Mitmoo, OP.

It's bloody awful. Sorry, but it is.

Children will call her cow.

I think COW

The only Jerseys I've ever known were nicknames that because they are from there.

My first thought when I saw the OP was MOOOOO.

I'm from Jersey, god no!

Ye gods and baby goldfishes, are you serious?
Potatoes, cows, cream, jumpers.... Why not Gurnsey, Alderney, Channel?

Pity the poor child.

Some quite mean replies on here

I don't think its that bad but there are thousands of much nicer girls names, why not just use Jessica / Jessie?

I like Jessica but would always think of Jesse as a boys name.

Some of the replies on here are hilariously rude!

To be honest I assumed you were joking about jersey as a name

Moo!

I know a lovely guy who has a daughter called Jerzie. Its fine.

Why not, if Brooklyn and Madison and Sky are fine?

I like it

I know one (aged 8). Not a fan (of the name, not the child.)

Brooklyn, Madison and Sky are not fine.
