Jesse or Jonah?

[PinkFing]

Who are they? What do they look like and what is their personality?

Which one is best?
Humour me, I’m very bored and pregnant!

The Jesse I worked with was impossibility good looking in a blond scruffy surfer way but boy did his feet stink!
Not met a Jonah but I instantly think Jonah the moaner. Sorry OP.

I adore both! Both strong, biblical names. Jesse maybe a slightky better namesake than Jonah, but I love and would use both names. Someone on MN always makes the 'big Jessie' comment but in all my life I've never heard anyone say this. I can't imagine the 'woke' kids of today saying anything like this.

As for Jonah meaning 'bringer of bad luck' - maybe sailors in like 1750 might have said this - it's specifically related to sailors - but unless you're planning to sail back in time, I think it's not going to be an issue

Jonah is really beautiful. It has a cool and artistic vibe - I imagine a quiet, bit of a dreamer but popular and kind.
Jesse is also nice - I imagine a cheekier, funny boy.

Jesse and Jonah sound like two old women at a Florida nursing home.

@EishetChayil
@Flutterflybutterby thank you so
Much. That’s made a lot of sense for me and what beautiful descriptions

Another who knows an adult Jesse who really didn't like being called a 'big Jesse' throughout his life.

Jonah on the other hand, I do like. 'Known enough' but not used much. Easy to spell and to read if you see it written on a list. Nice name.

Jonah.

Love Jesse, but Jonah is nice too.
