Baby Names

JJ?

The hubs and I like Jacob even though it's so popular. But we like the middle name Jude for personal sentimental reasons. This weekend at a wedding while DH was very intoxicated and talking about how many babies he wants(a million apparently) he mentioned the nickname JJ. I think I like it which is odd because with our Benjamin and Bradley we refuse to shorten their names and always call them by their full names. 
I cant ask the fam for opinions because it would be a pain to hear about it for the rest of our pregnancy. 
Any opinions from the name experts?

Re: JJ?

  • My brother called me JJ until he was about six because he couldn't say Jennifer. Personally I really dislike JJ as a nn as do I DJ, CJ, MJ etc but as far as one kid having a nickname and two not that's a non issue IMO

    I personally am not crazy about nn being JJ but if you and your husband like it, go for it.

  • I know a 2 year old JJ and I think it's cute. it's just a NN so if you decide it doesn't fit, you can just call him Jacob. :)
