Short names for Jethro?

[goomum]

What do you think of the biblical boys name Jethro? Do you prefer Jett or Jeth for short?

I agree.
There isn't a sensible nickname - so get used to Jethro.

Jethro is a great name (on the list for dc5), and agree with pp - the nn are rubbish, just use Jethro, its not like its a really long name that needs to be shortened for ease of use!

don't like it really....i would call him Jay for NN as otherwise it will end up like Jeff which i really do not like. What about the biblical name Josiah - Jed for short....my nephew is called this and its a really cool name imo

My brother is called Jethro, ignores the silly name comment, and is called Jeth for short by family and friends - though people in school (he's in his late 30's btw) sometimes used to call him 'Jeff' which he didn't really like I don't think.

He also gets called 'Jet' sometimes.

I have a good friend called Jethro - it is shortened to Jet.

I have known him for over 20 years and it never occurred to me that it was seen as a silly name by some until recently because I'd known my friend for so long IYSWIM.

Was gonna say Jet too.Nice though.

woops...that absolutely wasn't meant as"jet2"which i realized it sounded like as soon as i'd sent the message...sorry!

Tull?

I love the name and would avoid shortening it.

I always think of the comedien Jethro.

He's fantastic, I love him.

you could always go for simply Jo/ Joe.

J? as in Jay?
