Thoughts on the name Jerry for a baby boy or Meadow for a girl?

Not if you already have a daughter called Margot

I really like Meadow for a girl, but prefer Jeremy over just Jerry.

Moreteaandchocolate · 24/06/2025 21:44

I like Jeremy nn Jerry.

Meadow is a guilty pleasure name to me - I love it but wouldn’t be brave enough to use it!

Meadow is pretty. I am not a fan of Jerry

Jerry is another word for a po. Fine if you want to name your child after a khazi. It also has the obvious ww2 connotation.

Mumofgirls2017 · 24/06/2025 22:27

Love meadow. Not Jerry. Sorry!

naomicrobiome · 25/06/2025 00:18

I quite like Meadow. Not keen on Jerry as a given name.

ninjahamster · 25/06/2025 00:20

Jerry sounds very dated to me

hereismydog · 25/06/2025 21:58

I actually quite like Jerry! Very refreshing amongst all the Noahs, Olivers and Arlos.

Meadow is a cow’s name for me, I’m afraid.

theunbreakablecleopatrajones · 26/06/2025 01:01

I like Jerome and Jeremiah, Jerry might be Ok as a nn but odd as a full name

Meadow reminds me of the kid in the sopranos.. it’s a bit Crystal and I suspect would have a naughty girl vibe for teachers.

No.

McTootsBagpipes · 26/06/2025 02:57

Jerry Can.

Meadow is a laundry fragrance, or reed diffuser, not a name.

Dandelionsand4leafclover · 26/06/2025 06:33

No to both

mummysmagicmedicine · 27/06/2025 22:25

I love Meadow but just not a fan of Jerry, seems very middle aged in my opinion x
