George Jukes ?

Both love the name but where i think it rolls off the tongue and sounds fab Df thinks it sounds weird... We already have a Grace.. are 2 GJ names too much ?

The other option is Samuel

IMHO i prefer Samuel with Jukes. I like the name George but with Jukes it puts me in mind of a 50's comic actor?!

like the name but odd.

Samuel works better. It's the G sound at the end of george that makes it a little cumbersome to say IMO.

Its a minefield isnt it

there are do many g/j sounds in it imo, it's a bit of a mouthful
