With the surname 'Jones'? I can't decide whether I quite like the similar sounds, or whether the poor boy will be a laughing stock Confused

I think it's absolutely fine.

Whatslovegottodo · 29/12/2016 14:33

It's fine OP.
But if you prefer give him a middle name to break it up.

KeepCalm · 29/12/2016 14:34

All good. I love George

ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual · 29/12/2016 14:45

Oh I am very pleased by these responses!

It's our ds2 and this is the only name we can a) agree on and b) gives me the feels.

We will def have a middle name, though not sure what yet.

I actually know a person named George Jones. Never thought it sounded odd!

TaggieRR · 30/12/2016 18:42

I can't think why there is anything wrong with it?

Theres a radio DJ called George Jones in northern ireland, it sounds fine!

originalmavis · 30/12/2016 20:28

You probably couldn't have Jack Jones , or a George, brother of Mildred.

Yep

Like the country singer? I wouldn't.

Beebeeeight · 03/01/2017 10:33

I find that very difficult to say- it's like a Tongue twister in my accent.
