Trying to find boy/girl names that start with "J"

jeremyclemieux

So heres the issue. I come from a family that all their first names start with 'J' (Joe, Janice, Jen, and myself, Jamie). It just so happens that my boyfriends name is Jeremy and he also has a son, by coincidence, named Josh. Well I feel like I should just stay on the 'J' Train, but im having issues with finding ones that I like. I need some opinions cause I feel like ive come to a dead end. I have a girl name that I like, but im still not to sure about it but have no idea for a boy. If anyone can think of anything, it would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!

Josie is an adorable name for a little girl.  

Have you looked at the long list of J Duggar names from that TLC show 18 kids and counting?  You might find some inspiration there??

I'm not a fan of the whole family having the same first initial and I find J particularly difficult to fine appealing names.  I always give the side eye to the "M" or "J" or "S" etc. family.  With that said,  if you must....here are a few suggestions:

Jordan

Jackson

Josephine (Josie)

Jessica

Jaden (gasp, ugh)

Jonah

Josiah

Jasmine

Josie and Jocelyn are my fave J's for girls. Jade?

The first name in my mind for a boy was Jude. I like the name though I'm not a huge fan of biblical names. I love James if you don't think it's too close to your own name.

My DS's name is Jameson.  I'm biased, but I love it.  I've also seen it spelled Jamison (usually for a girl) or Jamieson.

My husband's family went with "J" names.  And it's the same circumstance as you.  His name is Jesse, and his siblings are Jordan and Jeremy. 

OpieMarie

Jade, Juliet, Juniper, June, Juno

Jasper, Jude, Josh, Judas (gasp!)

My favourites are:

Girls - Juliet, Josephine, Jewel

Boys - Jude and Julian 

Having said that, I really hate it when families use the same first letter for all of their children's names.

Jairus (biblical) sounds like Chair-us but  with a J (boy)

Juliet (girl)

Jovi (girl)

Anything but Jana or John, because the Duggars' firstborn son is Josh (like your boyfriend's son), and their second-born twins were Jana and John. So if you use one of those names, it will really seem like you are copying them.

If you are interested, and you don't want to look them up, here are all of the Duggar children names in order: Josh, Jana, John David, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joseph, Josiah, Joy Anna, Jedidiah, Jeremiah, Jason, James, Justin, Jackson, Johanna, Jennifer, Jordyn, and Josie.

My favorite girl J names are Jaqueline,  Jeanette, Jelisaveta, Jolanka,  Josephine,  Jovana, Juliana,  Juliska, and Junia. And my favorite boy J names are James, Jason, and Josiah.

My sister's name is Jolene, I've always loved it.

I've always liked Jacinda.

Also, Juliet/Juliette, Juliana, Jillian, and Juno for girls; and Jude, Julian, Josiah and Jack for boys.

Thanks everyone! I know its corny but Ive always been partial to J names. I really like the name Jillian. My boyfriend came up with Jenelle, so we'll see. Still havent talked about boy names, maybe thats a sign!
