Kit Harris or Jenson Kelvin (as first and middle name)

[sarah13xx]

Kit or Jenson?
Kelvin would be after my grandpa but I think Kit Kelvin is too much together! Harris is one of our favourite names but we feel it’s too popular in our area (Scotland) to use as a first name.
Kit is 372 on Scotland’s 2020 list
Jenson is 193

Please help, going round in circles with all these names 🙈 x

Jenson would indicate you are formula one fans to me. I have a pet hate for shortenings as actual names so I would suggest Christopher but Kit as a nickname, Kelvin would be fine with Christopher as a middle name (depending on last name of course). Giving children a formal name on their birth certificate means they have options as an adult, can't imagine putting Kit on a cv - I have work in hr in an industry that would get 300+ applications for a single job so we filtered them prior to giving them to the recruiting manager and my boss discarded anyone with "silly" names that wouldn't be appropriate on business cards!

I don't like either first name, but Kit is better than Jenson. Harris is nicer than Kelvin.

Kit!

Suggestion: log on to LinkedIn and search the name Kelvin. Search Jenson. Kelvin is very popular in America

@sarah13xx could you go with Jenson Kit or Jenson Harris I think they sound good together

To be honest as long as you love the first name the middle name doesn't get used that often so if Kelvin is really special to you you could make it work 😊

I don’t know why but the middle name to go with Jenson seems hard to pick. Kelvin has the same ‘n’ ending as Jenson so maybe not great. It will only be a big thing til we’ve picked it then no one will ever know the middle name anyway 🤷🏼‍♀️ My girls name is fully picked for future and the middle name is in memory of someone in my family so feel like his middle name should have some sort of meaning too. Luckily for me I only have one male family member who we’ve lost though, hence the Kelvin. Think I need to get a definite first name first!

I get that but we are just not the type of people to go with a name like Christopher. I much prefer the nickname names as full names. I’m sure some employers do that but I don’t think they are technically allowed to discriminate people based on whether they think their name is ‘silly’ or not. I have a VERY unusual first name (that I’m not a fan of) and have never applied for a job without getting it 🤷🏼‍♀️ Depends on the line of work I suppose

Yeah I like it too, we know a girl Jett though

Sorry but JK is awful.

Why don't you use Kit Jenson .

I prefer Kit Harris

Jensen - not keen.
Kit- much prefer.

Middle names- I really really think that it doesn’t matter as they are never used together.

Is Harris not slang for arse?

Kelvin is dreadful.

I love the name Kelvin but am biased because it was my dad's name.

Kelvin Harris sounds good. I've never heard of Calvin Harris.

But as others have said, who actually knows people's middle names? I haven't got a clue about any of my friends middle names apart from one, because she uses that name instead of her first one.

Much prefer Kit Harris.
Jenson Kelvin is too n-yy
And I just don’t like Jenson.

@Onlinedilema

Why don't you use Kit Jenson .

It’s a possibility, only thing is we might wish we hadn’t if we have another boy and still only like the same few names 🙈

@OysterMonkey

Much prefer Kit Harris. Jenson Kelvin is too n-yy And I just don’t like Jenson.

Think Kit Harris is the best name (as long as you’re not a big Kit Harrington fan, which I’m clearly not 🤷🏼‍♀️)

Kit Harris for me... though I like Jenson, too. Not with Kelvin though.

Kit is great - though if I were Scottish I would make it short for Kester, ace Scottish version of Christopher. Mainly because Kit is getting v fashionable and it will give him options, but also will sound less like a Kit Harrington tribute.

Harris is meh but fine in the middle.

Kelvin is fine but I agree you can’t with a K first name - you could have say Kester James Kelvin though?

No to Jenson - it’s the Ryan of the 2020s. If you are the lady that posted before I know you said it isn’t popular in Scotland yet, but my guess is it will spread up from the South East as most popular names do. Don’t do it to him.

Yes it’s me who posted about it before 😂 haven’t heard of the name Kester. I know I wouldn’t use Christopher as the long version so maybe that’s an option. There have only been 9 registered boys called Kit in Scotland in 2020 but a wee boy at my school is called it so I’m guessing most are registered as Christopher or something else

Kit is much nicer than Jenson.

Jenson is the polar opposite of posh.

Out of those I would pick kit.

All awful!

I much much much prefer Kit - think it's a lovely name. Jenson does absolutely nothing for me.

I genuinely don't think middle names get used outside birth announcements so use whatever names have meaning for you.

I've never watched GoT and never remember any famous names so that wouldn't come up as an issue for me at all.

@Toddlerteaplease

All awful!

What a helpful comment 🙃
