BOY: Jace or Nolan?

EmmaNut

Last name is Nutley (yes- its bad!) Our daughters are Addison and Taylor, and hubby's name starts with a J.

I think Nolan has too many N's going on. Thoughts?

candrew05

I don't like Jace. 

Nolan is nice and don't think it sounds so bad with Nutley.

JaysonandKristin

I wouldn't care if Nolan had 3 more Ns in it.  Jace is TERRIBLE.

Please, please...  Nolan.  It's a fantastic name!!  

StephenW4

Not a fan of Jace, so I would go with Nolan. I love the name Nolan, so even though your last name starts with N, I would still pick Nolan over Jace.

EastCoastBride

Nolan, hands down.

KikiSmash12

Anything but Jace.

Nolan is so much better than Jace on it's own but Nolan Nutley sounds ridiculous. Like some crazy book character. I like a one syllable name though, just not Jace. 

Shane Nutley... I think this works well. A name that ends with "n" will sort of throw off the harsh sound of "nut".

Nolan > Jace x1000000000000.

Totally agree...I love the name Shane!

I like Jace with your last name.

BethPSU

I really don't like Jace. Nolan Nutley doesn't sound great, but it is better than Jace. What about Chase or Rowan? Owen? Cole? Grant?

WashingtonQueen

I think you need new names. I really dislike Jace and Nolan does not go well with your last name at all.

Nolan. Jace reminds me of Teen Mom.

jess9802

I love Nolan (see signature), but it doesn't sound right with your last name.

PPs have given you some good alternatives.

Loganswife

I really dislike Jace, and I don't like how Nolan sounds with your last name.

Please, please...  Nolan.  It's a fantastic name!!  

While Nolan Nutley isn't the best (and Nolan is NMS)...I still agree with this.

I really can't stand Jace.

 I have to agree with this. 

Icarusalsoflew

I agree with the people who suggested that you find new names. Pleeeease don't name your son Nolan Nutley. That's awful.

I'm not crazy about alliteration in names.

This is what I was goi g to say. I'd keep looking. 

Fletch82

Nolan. Even with all the Ns it's still sounds better

scorch

I dislike Jace. I like same initials. Nolan is a good name.

Yes to Cole Nutley!

mrs_tacos

Nolan by default, since I really dislike Jace.

ETA: I also love Cole or Grant. Great options.

luminousbluestar

I love Nolan but not with your last name. Maybe as a middle? And sorry I just don't get the appeal of Jace. Its definitely trendy and I think it sounds like it's trying to hard to be cool or something. 

thetheisens

I like Nolan. I strongly dislike Jace. It reminds me of teen mom and hillbillies.

g8trkim

I'm not a big fan of Jace but I don't like Nolan Nutley together at all so I would probably do with Jace for that reason.

mjune3881

OK I love Nolan, but I think it sound terrible with your LN (please don't take any offence!, it just doesn't work, too many n sounds).  Jace is really NMS. 

caittozer

Although I really like the name Nolan, I do not love it combined with Nutley. If you're not set on one or the other I'd say its time to get back to the drawing board. Maybe Jason Nutley and use nn Jace?

kaswanson

I love Nolan, but don't love it with your ln.  Jace is not nms.
