Jensen

[Threefaries]

We are likely to have another girl but need a boys name just in case. My DH really likes the name Jensen but I'm not at all convinced. Please can i have opinions on this name thanks.

Fabulous name, love it!

I quite like. Feels like the American surname-as-first-name vibe, like Carter or Wilson. Only association I can think of is Jenson Button, which is ok

It's cool. My boys would love to have a name like that.

Love it!

I love it.

My mum suggested it to me for DS2 but someone I knew had already used it.

I like it- Jensen Ackles, Jensen Button etc

I love it, my friend is called Jensen but she is female, she lives in the states :)

I'm sorry but I don' like it, I just think Jenson Button and it is also very American sounding. Reminded me of standing in the playground before half term and hearing 'Ayrton (as in Senner I assume) come 'eeeeeeeerrrrrre!'

Poor child.

I like it! I think it's pretty cool. I might wonder if you loved F1 though. Do you?

Horrible. Sorry

Hideous.

Thank you for the feedback so far.

My girls names are all feminin and fairly english traditional. I'm not sure I fancy somethibg that sounds American. Lady, Ihave no interest in f1 at all, my dh is not really a fan. Blue, I would hate m child to have a name that results in your reaction. Hmm, some thinking to do.

Sorry for my typos, .ew phone

I just think there are thousands of normal names out there. Why saddle a child with something off the wall?

Awful

Love it, I know 2 super cool Jensens 😎

I like it but wonder if it will become over used in a few years. I know two local Jensens already. (I'm slightly obsessional about not using popular names)

My daughters uncle is called Jenson. She is three and he is a year younger. I hope that answers your question

Seems to be a bit of a marmite name. These negative comments are helpibg me. I will be showing my dh this thread

Son of Jen

Jenson Button

Jensen Interceptor

We had this on our list for a while but I'm not sure now. DH still loves it. It's nice but I know of 3 babies that have been called it in the last year- I wonder if it'll become more common and therefore lose its appeal.

I'm not keen, but I think you'll get a 50:50 reaction to most names. If it 'feels' right to you go for it

I really wouldn't use Jensen as a first name.
Jensen is one of the most common surnames in Denmark, and seen as a very boring one because of that. It literally means 'son of Jens'.
Calling someone 'Jensen Smith' is giving him two surnames and no first name.
