Nash or Jack

[Hrjelin]

My husband is obsessed with one syllable “manly” boy names lol. I love Nash. Jack seems too popular.
Thoughts?

[MummytoCSJH]

Never heard of Nash...

[ErrolTheDragon]

Sounds exactly like Gnash so no, I don't think so.

[Katgolde]

Nash sounds like gnash. Reminds me of Gnasher the dog or gnashing of teeth.

Jack was No1 boys name for several years running. Personally I think it's been overdone too recently.

How about Josh, Ash, Max or Nick?

[sanityisamyth]

Nash is awful. Sounds like something you do with your teeth (gnash)

[Peachbubble]

Jack, yes. Nash, no. How about
Nate
Tate
Jude
Rex

[RishiMcRichface]

I met a little Clarke the other day that might be an alternative.

[ChickenDoughnut]

Nyash is a slang word for a woman’s arse in some circles.

Jack is better.

[Scarby9]

Cash
Dace
Hank
Jake
Luke
Max
Rafe
Seth

[Nacomi]

Jack

[CharityPecksniff]

Nash will be teased.

[Kote]

Nash sounds like a cowboy to me

[Uhtredmumofuhtred]

Gnasher? No.
Jack.

[Mamadothehump]

I never comment on baby name threads as each to their own but Nash is awful in my opinion.

[LittleTiger007]

I know of a Nash and he’s American. It’s ok, unusual here which may be a plus. jack is timeless and lovely.

[BananaDaiquiri]

I like Nash, but can see others point about Gnasher.
Agree about Jack being overdone.
How about:

Hugh
Jed
Zac
Ted
Abe
Flynn
Finn

[frustrationcentral]

I know a Nash, he's a teenager and has never been teased for his name.

[pinkpanther84]

Jack, a hundred percent!

[nutellatoast]

Nash is awful, definitely Jack. Nat or Nate are ok.

[Quizeerascal]

Nash is a surname so I guess it could technically become a first name. Sounds quite harsh though and reminds me of gnash/Gnasher. Cash is nicer although I don't love it, Ash is a great name and I think Jos works well as a short name for a boy or Frank perhaps

[RuthW]

Nash is a dog's name surely?

[user1493494961]

Nash is awful, his mates would probably call him Nasher.

[PoorMansPaulaRadcliffe]

I love it when people roundly reject a name, and then proffer half a dozen much worse examples.
I loved a spot of 'Nash Bridges'. And the theme tune is right up there with the best. Go for it, OP.

[MikeUniformMike]

Nash - Gnasher, Nesh
Jack - Jacko, Jacksy.

If you have other children are they called Crosby and Stills?

[ulanbatorismynextstop]

Nash! Awful....
