My dad was called Gideon. He always used his middle name instead. He got so much stick for it at school, then the hotel bible thing finished it off.

Name swap didn't stop him from being a cheater, wife beater, child abandoner, gambling addict, bankrupt and all round lying cunt weasel though

I love Gideon

Gideon really is a bad name IMO.

I really like Jadon. Also like Isaiah if you want something biblical that has a modern feel.

Giddy is not good.

Jadon isn't usually well liked on here, OP, because of similarity to Jayden and variants. So we have a frying pan or fire situation. Grin

I think Jadon is probably preferable here.

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.

Yes! Lazy language too.

Love Gideon. Jadon, right or wrong, looks like an 'indervijewel' spelling of Jayden. Which is horrendous.

Seems like I'm in the minority but I like Gideon.
