Having a hard time with finding a boy name with J

LindseyLooMagoo · October 2016

hey everyone!! As I'm sure some of you can tell by my previous posts that I am having a hard time finding a J name that is not common for a boy.. I found a name that sounds pretty cool but there is one thing making me think otherwise.. the name is jagger. The problem I'm having is that our last name ends in "ER" too.. I say the name out loud with our last name and it makes me cringe a little.. basically would be like saying Jagger Carner.. anyone else see an issue with this or am I just being over critical?

Jagger is pretty bad. Not a COOL name at all.

Jasper is pretty cool

I see an issue with Jagger and the rhyming surname. I really think you can do better.

I'm personally just not a fan of Jagger. Makes me think of McJagger or the word jagged. To answer your question the double "er" isn't terrible but if it bothers you I would move on.
What about:
Jacoby
Jetson nn Jet
Jarrett
Joel
Jonah

Some surnames should stay surnames.

Suggest

Janus
Jared
Jasper
Jarvis
Javier
Jeremiah
Jermaine
Jerome
Joachim
Joel
Johannes
Jonas
Jubal
Judah
Jude

Really not a fan of jagger. Plus the double ER would bother me.

Thumbs down to Jagger. The double ER would also bother me.

Jagger is a type of name people will roll their eyes about behind your back.

Jasper
Jericho
Jameson
Julius
Jacoby

Lol thanks ladies!! You have confirmed what I already thought! Thanks for the suggestions! Keep them coming.. we already have a boy named Jett which is very fitting for him.. any names sound good paired with Jett?

Are you sold 100% on a J name

saham07 · October 2016

Judson
Jared
Jesse
Jonas
Joris
Jovian
Jaris

I'd only use Jagger if you are a huge Rolling Stones fan. Even then it seems kind of silly. Also the double ER doesn't sound good.

Love PP suggestion of Josiah, JOnas, Joel. Good luck

I really dislike Jagger. It's super harsh and a surname. I really like the suggestion of Jasper but that doesn't help you if you're trying to avoid the -er ending. I think Jonas and Joel are nice. Also suggesting Jared/Jerrod.

CaboBride2015 · October 2016

With Jett, I like Jasper, Jude or Jovan

Jett and Jagger sound like the names of members of a rock band to me. I also agree with previous posters about repeating -er.

I really like Jared, Jude, Joel, Julian. Suggesting Jack and Jeremiah.

This is either a fun autocorrect or a hilarious lifelong misconception of Mick Jagger's name! Or a super obvious third option that shows my ignorance. But it made me giggle.

Jonah

I have a cousin in grade school named Jagger. I love it for that reason. His name fits him perfect. I can't imagine him with any other name.

allieshortcake · October 2016

I like Jude or Julian with Jett.

Autumnale · October 2016

Jude would be my vote!

I think the "er" sound at the end of the first and last name is too much.

Also, an occupational hazard of being a teacher is having bad associations with certain names. I have taught one kid named Jagger and he was pretty difficult. It'll be a while before I don't have negative associations with the name.
