    No. I've never been to New Jersey, but I've heard it's really dirty. I wouldn't want to name my daughter after a place that people think is dirty. You have a lot of great names in your poll.?
  • Nope.  Not a cute name for a girl.

  • Would it help if I spelled it Jersie?
  • Not in my opinion. Now it just looks like a made up spelling.

    IMO, Jersey is a nickname for a state, or a kind of fabric. Not a name.

  • I don't like it at all, sorry. It would not be a good name regardless.

    No. That just looks worse.?

  • Nope.  Not for a girl or a boy.
  • Cute for a dog, not for a child. 

    If you want to honor NJ, why don't you name her after a city, like Elizabeth, or Pamona?

    I think it's a cute name for a dog, that's about it.

  • as a Jersey girl I have to say that yes it has a bad rap- but there are some gorgeous parts to the state-  it is just the major highways go through some industrial areas

     

    that being said-  i agree with the PP.  good name for a dog, awful name for a person (regardless of spelling)

    Jersey is a type of cow.  Do not name your daughter after a cow.  Don't.
  • If the others didn't sway your opinion to no already...

    Jersey is also a specific breed of cow. They are brown and cute and gentle...but it still doesn't make a great baby girl name!

    Jersey = FAIL.

    Jersie = EPIC FAIL.

    Please don't.

  • Please, please, please don't name your baby after a cow. Or a state.
  • Oh man, that's really bad. 

  • I don't know that its a great idea.  You didn't get the idea from Coyote Ugly did you?

    LOL. New Jersey is a state, and as with most states, it has many, many beautiful towns as well as some not so nice ones.

    Of course, I don't doubt that. I have family in PA and they talk about Jersey like it's a dump. That's the only thing I've ever heard about it, but I'm sure there are pretty places in that state. ?

    The first thing I thought was actually how cute that name would be for a pet.  I'm not trying to insult you, but I really thought that at first.  I don't think it's an appropriate name for a human child though.
  • No.  You should not do that to your child.  Think Jersey cow.  Not a good connection there.
  • why o' why would you do that to a child? you're just kidding with this whole question right?

    Sibling names: Dairy, Moo, and How Now Brown.
  • No, just, no.?

  • LOL!!! You guys are so funny!  I did not plan on naming my kid Jersey.  My mom recommended it and is obsessed with it and I just wanted to see the responses here - if it matched my response.
