How about [name_m]Bastian[/name_m], [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] or [name_u]Jude[/name_u]?

[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] [name_m]Edward[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] [name_u]Gabriel[/name_u]

I know [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] and [name_m]Bastian[/name_m] aren’t Jewish names but they’re classic but with some flair.

Boaz [name_m]Jonathan[/name_m]
[name_u]Benjamin[/name_u] [name_u]Jesse[/name_u]
[name_u]Benjamin[/name_u] [name_m]Jethro[/name_m]
[name_m]Ben[/name_m]-[name_u]Zion[/name_u]

Love [name_m]Boaz[/name_m]! [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_m]Bram[/name_m], [name_m]Joah[/name_m] or [name_m]Jeb[/name_m]? [name_m]Just[/name_m] wanted to say that there might be teasing potential with initials BJ so I would try and avoid that!

Benjamin
[name_u]Jonah[/name_u]
[name_m]Judah[/name_m]
[name_m]Josiah[/name_m]
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u]
[name_m]Bennedict[/name_m]
[name_m]Bertram[/name_m]
[name_m]Barnaby[/name_m]

I know it’s not a j or a b but [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] [name_m]Joshua[/name_m] I think would be really lovely and is a Jewish name.

Don’t give your child the initials BJ. [name_m]Even[/name_m] if you don’t immediately think of what that stands for, guaranteed more than a few people will and in school the jokes will not hold back.

I’m going to “second” @PRSing and @Ameliaanwen on the initials…

Thank you everyone!! Leaning Towards [name_u]Jordan[/name_u] [name_m]Brody[/name_m], what do you think?

Not a fan of [name_u]Jordan[/name_u] [name_m]Brody[/name_m]. With [name_u]Jordan[/name_u] I think of the country and it’s also a somewhat common name. It’s also unisex so if you want a definitive boy or girl name don’t use it. [name_m]Brody[/name_m] sounds like a middle school jock that peeked in 9th grade and goes by Bro.
