Jackson and Jensen too similar?

[TLuza2249]

Due with baby boy in a few weeks and we like the name Jensen Louis. Our first born is Jackson James. Are Jensen and Jackson too similar for a sibling set?

Love the name Jensen (and Louis). I say go for it.

Ooooooh no. Sorry, I think it’s really awful.

I’d have Louis as his name . Break up the J’s.

Louis is nicer

They are very very similar names.

They are very similar. I wouldn’t do it myself. But they’re both ok names so you must use them if you love them..

Way too similar to me. It's not just the same initial, they have the same ending and the same number of syllables. They're the ultimate definition of matchy.

I'd reverse it. Louis Jensen.

Yeah, they're too much the same.

sorry

Too similar. I know girls with very similar names and everyone gets them muddled - must drive them mad

I think a bit too similar. Akso to me Jensen is a type of car.

Jackson and Louis sound really cool together

Jensen Interceptor.
They're OK, but a bit matchy-matchy. They're basically both 'son of John'.

Jackson and Louis sound much better to the ear.

Jackson James and Louis Larkspur

It's a Danish name.

Also Jensen Button.

Larkspur??? 🤣

Yes.

In the uk it was also the name of Jensen Motors so will make some people think of that. I knew of the car before I knew of a person called Jensen so to me it’s first and foremost a car make/ brand name.

What about Louis Jensen instead. Or go with your plan officially but switch to Louis as a nickname if you feel it’s too matching after a few days/weeks.

Mr Button is Jenson.

Thanks all! We're really stuck. I don't want to use Louis as a first name because it's a family name that frankly I don't want to use all the time. My husband is a teacher so all common names are basically out the window because they remind him of someone else.

I'm a fan of the surname-style names that are not overused and would age well and obviously something that would pair well with his sibling Jackson James. Any other ideas?

Benjamin is a surname
Spencer
Fletcher
Lincoln (someone in greys anatomy is called Link I think) - a lot of the ones that come up on a Google search feel quite American to me.

Harrison but I think probably better to avoid another “son” ending.
McKenzie?
Barton?

Fletcher
Carter

Fraser

I am loving Louis Larkspur!
