Jaze or Jayze

[cactusses]

To be pronounced to rhyme with maze?

I prefer Jaze as it's simpler but my DP thinks Jayze looks more solid as a name. We don't like traditional names so James is off the menu. We liked Jay but it's a bit overdone and more boring.

Neither

Your bubs your choice hun

😂Indeed.

However if you ask on an anonymous forum for opinions on two God awful names that will have teachers rolling theirs eyes and other parents sniggering, it's hardly surprising that posters are giving honest opinions.

Coming to an estate near you

What about giving your child a name that you didn’t just make up 5 fucking minutes ago?!

Jay-z please

Zade makes you think of a shortened version of Lucozade.

Ray, perhaps. Like a 60s hard man name, but also nature inspired, as in ray of sun.

As a short name, Leigh might have a cool appeal.

Ooh, what about Lyte short for dioralyte?

Zade (among other various spellings of the name) is a very common Arabic name, so if you want something original then this ain't it.

There's about 10 in my school.

That really want meant to sound snippy 😂 it's just there really are a lot of them!

John is quite unusual enough.

Zade?

I think you’re determined to go down the made up name with ‘ay’ sound route. I guess we may as well be creative then and see if we can come up with something you like.

Tayz
Scayp
Layx
Wayne - no sorry, that’s real.
Flayne then.
Kaith
Dabe

I’m just playing around with the key board, but I think they can all compete the Zade and Jayze.
Does it have to be one syllable?

Oh hell to the no for both.

Tell me you're joking !!?!

Also, to the PP who used the word "bubs"???

WHYYY?

instantly reminds me of Jay z what an awful name

Flayne 😅 brilliant

Agree with PP on Zane. Could that be a goer?

No no no no

I'm another one who immediately thought of Jay-Z

there are a lot of names in between "made up" and "traditional" to choose from though. I don't think this is a good name at all.

Jizz ?

Heath is quite a nice one syllable name, with nature-inspired associations.

There is Ace, from the list of one-syllable names, but sounds a bit short and simple. Heath is better.

I quite like Jace. Secret teen mom fan though

Your child won’t thank you and will probably be changing it as soon as possible. If you like names like that change your own

Kade or Kayde are short, and have a nice cadence ( 'scuse the pun) and the hard consonants counter the soft vowel.

Also, if they set up their own fashion merchandising company, later in life, they could call it ' Mayde by Kayde' or 'Made by Kade'.

I prefer Jaze as it's simpler

Do you, aye?
