J names I’ve never ever heard

Boy Names
1

We’re expecting our 6th baby in [name_u]March[/name_u]. All of our children have middle names beginning with J. [name_m]Innocent[/name_m] coincidence with our first two, thought it would be cute to continue the tradition with our third, then along came four and five and we shuddered at the monster we had created lol. Needless to say, we are really in a funk with finding a J name for number six.

At this point I feel like we’ve exhausted every J name in the books, and need some outside help! We’re looking for the unheard of, the invented, the place name, the obscure surname… the ultimate J name!
For reference, our kids’ middle names are
[name_u]Jayden[/name_u]
[name_m]Javier[/name_m]
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m]
[name_f]Jorja[/name_f]
[name_f]Juliet[/name_f]

What a fun tradition!
I’d avoid [name_u]Jay[/name_u]-souding names because a couple already have them. Might be good to even out the vowel sounds!
