we thought we named our son....

ecochicwife · May 2013

until we found another name we love!

Either Jett Emery or Crew Emery

It seems like people on the name board hate both names- EEK. (guess all that is important is we love them)

esf60 · May 2013

yeah, Emery is the only one I like out of those 3. but you're right, if you like it, it's your choice.

AJCagle82 · May 2013

I met a guy the other day with a son named Ozzie. He said people either love it or hate it and there doesn't seem to be an in between. Choose the name you like best. That's one of the perks of being the parent! ;

I'm not a huge fan of Jett or Crew, although Emery is nice.

It is important that you and baby's dad love the name, but it definitely isn't "all" that is important. Choosing a name for another human is an big task - so it's also important to consider what it would be like for your child to go through life with potential names. What will other's first impressions be if they saw the name on a job application/resume? Will he/she have to correct people on the pronunciation/spelling on a regular basis? Just some other things to consider.

out of the two i would say Jett, but neither are my style, but you're right: you're the parents it's your decision!

keljackson · May 2013

I really like both names. Both are pretty new names meaning they haven't been around very long and there aren't many people that have those names.

tryston123 · May 2013

they arent as bad as Rayn pronounced rain WTH... my sister in law is wacko

kimmycup · May 2013

They're NMS but if you love them that's all that matters.

rbtrumpet · May 2013

Assuming you wanted opinions (because you posted here), I know of one other Jett born this year. It's NMS, but I like it much better than Crew.

WashingtonQueen · May 2013

What is wrong with people today?

And, I know a couple who named their oldest son Camden and the youngest Crew... I can't take them seriously. I really can't.

OP, what about Cruz?

Mauidmama · May 2013

Jett is adorable

firstbaby55033 · May 2013

I personally love names that I have rarely heard or never heard Jett Crew would be adorable I think.

brea311 · May 2013

I have a friend who named his firstborn Jetty. I didn't get it (wasn't sure if it was short for something), but I like different names. And how can a name be improperly spelled? Do you know how many people just make up names? I mean really...look at all those names with "high commas" in them...totally made up. It doesn't make it wrong. Advice: never tell anyone what names you are thinking about (its hard enough to decide between you and the husband!) and when the baby comes and you tell everyone the name, they will love it and fawn all over how unique it is because there is a beautiful little baby boy attached to that name

I love Jett! It's actually on my short (ok..it's kind of long) list. Not a big fan of Crew, but I don't hate it or think it's horrible. I don't see either of them being names that will be made fun of.

cbm3228 · May 2013

Honestly I don't care for either- but if I had to pick I would say Jett. But truly neither are my style.

runblondie26 · May 2013

Lol, my Dh is a pilot, so I could just imagine the ribbing we'd get if we named our kid Jett or Crew. Even worse, what if DS decided to become a pilot later in life himself. And on our flight crew today is Jett/Crew....

I do like Emery though.

Liz4444 · May 2013

Am I the only one who's not sure if you are trying to name a boy of a girl?

Yes, names can be spelled improperly. Just because someone makes something up and attaches it to a human doesn't make it a proper name.

I'm dying at high commas.

The fact that PP doesn't think names can be misspelled does not surprise me at all. High commas!! Hahaha

FTR, I kind of dig Crew. It would be on my guilty pleasure list with Beau and Boyd.

cbm3228 · May 2013

high commas might be the most entertaining thing I have read today...and that includes posts about Wynsdai and Au'BreaLei (or whatever) as names.

They are both way too trendy for me, personally.

SMH. Please go back to school.

NMS at all. I've never understood name polls. Who gives a $h!t what a bunch of strangers think about the name you've chosen?

amberrrjade · May 2013

I really dislike Crew... it doesn't sound like a name to me. However, I have a friend named Jetson, people call him Jet for short, and I love his name and so does he.

babymama619 · May 2013

I'm not really into them either. But if you go with Jett I like it spelled with the TT at the end.

The good news is if none of us like it, you know your son won't be in a classroom full or kids named Jett or Crew!

cwl3530 · June 2013

Jett Emery is way cute!!!!

ClomidCrazed · June 2013

It's your kid who cares if anyone else likes it. They can F off! Think about what makes you and The Daddy to be happy and that is all that matters.

we thought we named our son....
