Thoughts on the name... Jerome

[Aliway]

Rafael a previous option i now no longer one. I have come up with this any distinct opinions about it that I should be aware of or dodgy stars called Jerome!

I have a negative connotation with this name as a Jerome I know is an egocentric, conceited, obnoxious jerk. Sorry.

love it

Great. A strong and distinctive name. Go for it!

Well, there's Jerome Flynn. Not that dodgy, although sometimes a little cheesy.

And Jerome K Jerome who wrote the book "Three men in a boat".

I had a gorgeous French boyfriend called Jerome as a teenager.

I nearly called my son Jerome 16 years ago but I hesitated and named him Jamie instead.

I also had Jared in mind.

I love the name Jerome.

Jerome Flynn springs to mind - but that's showing my age.

It's a bit of a ch-you know what-y name round here. Not keen on it, sorry.

oh i do like it
the patron saint of libraries you know
dp vetoed it, i suppose it is a little bit wnaky

My dad is called Jerome (he's Irish) but he's always been known as Jerry. I like both.

Robson.

ByTheSea, do we know the same person or is it just a Jerome thing?

Love it!!!!!

St Jerome wrote lots about virginity. Criticised for misogyny.

sorry - not my cup of tea.

It reminds me of the word mushroom.

Like it!

i like it too

How would you pronounce it? I know of one pronounced Gerom, which I think, sounds slightly better than Je Rome.

Thanks for all the feedback, am still undecided but feel it will go well with my firstborns name not due till april so plenty of time yet!

It's good - unusual without being outlandish. I know a Jerram too. Or Gerram. Not sure how it's spelt.

Robson to me too

Its ok
