I knew I'd read similar to the other jackson/jaxon thread!

i quite like it . but honestly hun what other people think really dosnt matter.

when i was considering brodys name my sister said oh Brodys a horrible name ( we had pretty much settled on it at that point) and it swayed me fo the next 2 weeks we tried to think of another name as perfect as Brody until i realised that if Brody was perfect for us then why should we look for a different name. it was a name we had disscussed years ago before even TTC and no matter what else we thought of we always came back to it.
you will know what to call your baby forget everyone else

I LOVE it hun

Its one of the names we have on our little list.

If we chose it it will definately be spelt Jaxon with James as a middle name so if he wants to shorten it when he is older he can be JJ

We wanted a name that was slightly diffferent to go with our 2 other DS's Benn and Blake.

When Blake was born and we told people his name we had some funny looks, but he just is Blake now, he goes to nursery with some children with very different names and kids just accept themas their name, its adults that cause the problem.

Its your choice and if you love it then go with it x

Yay

My friend was going to name her baby Jaxon Craig.. and I have another friends son named Jaxon.. i think its cute..

 

[DizzyMoo]

Thanks ladies, i seriously love it & where i am nobody seems to of heard of it as a 1st name. Must admit i'm defo getting some strange looks, I told my grandma & 1st thing she said oh i like jack !!!! FFS i didn't say jack i said jaxon ..ok so she obviously didn't know how i was spelling it until i said but even so if it was jack i would of said fecking jack so i said "no grandma he wont be spelt that way, I don't like jack so he'll be either jax, jaxon or j.t" she then didn't like the fact i want ted as part of his 1st name, ( double barrell ) because its after my bio grandad (my mums dad) not my grans 2nd hubby.
But i just said it was what i really liked, wanted & had decided on so basically tough shit lol

 

[Mumof42009]

I love it so unusual and his middle name, people dont like my little mans name but stuff them cause i love it xx

 

[DizzyMoo]

Yep i guess it doesn't do for everyone to like the same eh hun xx

 

[jlosomerset]

Fair play to you hun, you go with your gut instinct

One of our other name choices is Zane and again people say you cant call him that, umm actually I can, its our child and we will call him what we like

Have really given up telling people our choices now because it gets so disheartening so they wont find out now until he pops out!!!

 

[DizzyMoo]

Thanks hun x

i think it's a little sad though that ladies like yourself feel they have to keep the name to themselves because of other peoples opinions .. I mean do they really think we're gonna listen to em anyway lol Sod em hun x

 

[jlosomerset]

Thanks

I know I'm usually like I couldnt care less what other people think, but must be the old pregnancy hormones kicking in and mellowing me out, lol!!!

When we announced Blakes name no one had any idea, we didnt find out the sex with him, and you get the "ooh thats different", umm not really!!!

Kids all just grow into their name anyway and as long as we all like the names we pick thats all that matters. x

 

[DizzyMoo]

Defo hun , Thing is after you give your child a name nobody can ever imagine them not to be called that lol. When people say oh no i don't like it, it sticks in your mind more than when someone says oh yeh that's nice. I kinda smirk inside now though when someone says urgh no, because i'm thinking "well whether you like it or not i couldn't give a toss really", lol . I'm sure there is something about them that we don't like or agree with i wonder how they would feel if we suddenly said URGH your arse looks big, Or urgh your not wearing that are you pmsl !! Imagine their faces hahahahahahaha

 

[genkigemini]

Honestly, I do not really care for it spelled Jaxon but it is not terrible or anything. I think you should stick with whatever name you love. If you love Jaxon then go for it.

 

[DizzyMoo]

Thanks hun

I really really like it now & i'm beginning to feel it sounds right with Joshua too

 

[Squidge]

I like it!

 

[PieMistress]

I would just go for Jax (rather than Jaxon and it being shortened all the time?). I like names that can't really be shortened and if they can (and will probably be shortened all their life) then just call them the shortened name from the start ie/ Sam (not Samuel), Tom (not Thomas) etc etc

I think Jax is really funky and unusual and not a name that would cause any probs in the playground!!

 

[shiawase]

Jaxon is in my top 5! I love it no one else really does though...but its my baby!

Well he will get jax for short which is fine as i like that, which is why i was finding it hard to get the correct name which i still liked once shortened.

My son is joshua-lee so gets josh,joshua,joshy & joshua-lee..he can pick what he likes when he is older,
So the same with Jaxon-Ted, can get jax, jaxon, j.t , ted or the full jaxon-ted, Enough choices to pick & i like them all

I'm a little opposite to you i like names which can be shortened but also have the full lol

 

[MrsN]

Love it, and do does DH which is not something that happens very often. TBH i much prefer it spelt that way too!

 

[DizzyMoo]

Woop!! Thank you !! xx
