Justin = Mr Tumble, sorry.

Best name? Jo, obvs not just cos it's mine no

Dljlr · 22/09/2018 19:51

*Joe, of course.

I love Jonathan.

I always thought Justin was a bit wet but I'm warming to it a bit now because of Justin Trudeau.

happytobemrsg · 22/09/2018 19:52

I love Jack

Crystalblue13 · 22/09/2018 19:52

Jesse is one of my favourite boys name. I also really like Jacob, Justin is quite nice.

violeticecream · 22/09/2018 19:53

Jamie

littlemisssunshine81 · 22/09/2018 19:54

Just to add some context, I like Jake and failing that Jay and but DH won’t agree to diminutive so I’m looking for J names instead :-) eg for Joe it would have to be Joseph....

J names are very marmite I find. I love Joseph, Jack, Johnny and James. Lots of others I really dislike. Justin falls into the latter category for me, sorry.

Justin is a definite no from me. Along with Jeremy.
I like Jack & Jodie.
I also dislike Jayden for the opposite reason from Justin/Jeremy.

@Crystalblue13 I actually posted about Jesse earlier on here and got really mixed reviews! Also surname is Rose so some people thought it a bit girly!

Definitely not James as we have lots in the family already. Julian and Jeremy are too ‘posh’ for me...

Crystalblue13 · 22/09/2018 19:56

I think Jesse Rose is a fab name!

converseandjeans · 22/09/2018 19:57

Julian and Jeremy are also both awful.
Yes to Jesse and Jacob.

Jy (rhymes with ‘tie’)

Shockers · 22/09/2018 19:59

I have a Joseph and a Johnny.

If I’d had any more boys, they would’ve been called Jethro and Jude Grin.

Rockclimbingtigger · 22/09/2018 19:59

I own a Joshua Harry (generally referred to as Josh). Named as he was 3 months premature and it means "warrior".
