Jackson

[heartoftheocean]

Saw film with leading character with this name (A Star Is Born).
Really liked the name. What do you think?

It's really common and (sorry) it sounds it.

No sorry. It’s a surname for a start.

Not a fan of the surnames as first names thing - sorry.

Stonewall?

I like it more than other surname names. Famous artist with the name too, so it's not just completely 21st century. Can be shortened to Jack if wanted. Also I know someone with a nice one.

I love it

Sounds like the troublesome child in the class

I know a Jaxon

It's a bit modern for me but if you like it use it.

I know a couple of Jaxon's that were named after sons of anarchy character. I quite like it.

Patti Smith had a son called Jackson and wrote the most lovely song about him when he was small, I've consequently always felt rather warmly towards the name!

My little boys called jackson its gotten a bit more common over the years we call him jax for short

Have you considered spelling it Jaxon or Jakson?

I don’t mind it as long as it’s spelled Jackson and not Jaxon or Jaxson.

Oops cross post!
Would have been tres awkward had I been being serious...

Prefer Jack.

There’s a trillion Jackson’s where I am.
And Harrisons too.

I vaccinate a lot of babies.
Would avoid this name like the plague.

Michael Jackson?

It's a surname.

Loads of baby Jackson/Jaxons around atm

Massively popular American name

Please don't spell it with an x!!!

Will always make me think of Michael Jackson and not in a good way.

I don't really have strong feelings on it either way, I know a few of them. If you like it use it.

Prefer Jackson to Jaxon though.

As in Michael the paedo? No.

Jackson is ok but please don't use alternative weird spelling like Jakxon, Jaxon or Jakson. All in use locally
