Gideon or Jadon?

[user1491070688]

Thank you very much.

One is chavvy and one is pretentious, so neither.

Please not Gideon - that's awful Rob Archer's fake & pretentious name for his son Jack.

Gideon

Is it really GO's real name? You learn something new every day...

Gideon if I absolutely had to choose.

How is Jadon pronounced?

Yes it is George Osborne real name. As someone already said upthread, he needs a more normal name because Gideon sounds like a twat.

I like your names, OP! But it seems that I may be the only one...

My impressions only.....

Gideon is so awful even the awful Osborne couldn't stick it

Jadon is chavvy, regardless of what bible it came from/how you want to spell it. These two are like polar opposites. I think I would rather everyone think my baby was a chav than a Gideon though, if you put a gun to my head.

I don't really like them but Jadon is marginally better I think. Gid/Giddy would be awful nns!

Gideon. Jadon is too much like the over-popular Jayden, Caiden, Aiden names.

Are Jadon and Jaiden/Jayden pronounced the same?

Gideon is George Osborne's real name.

Aiden is no way in the same category as Jaiden/Kayden,l/Brayden.

Jadon. Nice name.

They are just disliking it in here because Gideon us more typically middle class. Don't be swayed by that.

Gideon, although does make me think of Gideon from Criminal Minds (the criminal psychologist) not George Osbourne. I really am not keen at all on Jadon.

relaxo - posters normally say 'Aidan' isn't but Aiden is.

See, I like Jadon. I don't see that it's any worse than Jacob or Jamie, and not in the Kayden/Brayden league at all.

Gideon, though... yup, Osborne.

Have you consudered Judas?

Go with your heart!

I hate all this thing on MN about putting names down and calling them 'chavy' or ''poncy'. I used to think the same many years ago but a combination and expierence has taught me to be open minded.

Jadon.

But people will associate it with Jayden, rightly or wrongly.

I think Fabian would be lovely. Or John.

Gideon. Jadon is positively horrendous! In a baby book I once had Jadon was a 'bell tone' name

Neither

Jadon. I don't like the "giddy" sound in Gideon.

both are really bad for different reasons.

Both horrid

Neither. Not keen on either OP sorry!
