We've just found out that baby no. 2 is going to be a boy, which has kind of thrown out all our name planning (we'd got girl names all decided, but no boy names).
On the way home, DH said he would like baby to have his favourite grandfather's name as a second name - it's Afrikaans and rather unusual so wouldn't really be suited as a first name. Thinking along the same lines (and so that we don't offend my half of the family!) both my grandfathers were called John, but my favourite grandad was known as Jack.
It's a good solid name, would go well with our surname, would go well with our DS's name (no confusion with first initials), there isn't another one in the family... but are there just too many Jacks out there for this to be a good idea?
Help! obviously we've still got weeks and weeks to decide on a name, but DH would so like to use his grandfather's name, and I feel like I'd like to remember my grandad too....
