26 Days of Unique Boy Names - J

Boy Names
1

Posting a list for each letter of the alphabet, a new letter each day. The names are mostly inspired by surnames used as the first name. There may be many names that begin with this letter, but the names on these lists are the more uncommon boy names that begin with this letter. Uncommon names but not terribly unrealistic; they feel sophisticated and somewhat original, but still useable. Some can be spelled in different ways but I am not including all of the spellings. Some may not be that unique necessarily, but still feel sophisticated enough to me to make the list.

The lists are to help others as they try to come up with name ideas for their child, or just for fun and the challenge of it. If Berries want, you can make a game of it and answer the questions below. Thank you!

  1. Which names stand out to you from today’s list?

  2. Which name might you choose?

  3. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any names that you feel could be added to today’s list?

TODAY’S LETTER: J
(this letter was also challenging. It seems many J names are either spelling variations on regular names, or rather biblical, or somewhat “made-up” names, for lack of a better word. And nothing is wrong with any of those, they just don’t fit this topic.)

[name_f]My[/name_f] favourites are: [name_u]Jasper[/name_u], [name_m]Jago[/name_m], [name_m]Jarret[/name_m], [name_m]Jethro[/name_m], [name_u]Jett[/name_u], [name_u]Jem[/name_u], [name_u]Joss[/name_u], [name_u]Jory[/name_u], [name_u]Jonah[/name_u], [name_u]Jules[/name_u], [name_u]Jennings[/name_u] [name_u]Jude[/name_u] and [name_m]Judson[/name_m].

I’d probably choose [name_u]Jem[/name_u] out of these, though [name_u]Jory[/name_u] and [name_u]Joss[/name_u] would be considerations too :slight_smile:

[name_m]Jonty[/name_m], [name_m]Jared[/name_m] and [name_u]Jacoby[/name_u] are ones I’ll add
