I had cut [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] out of the running due to it’s increasing popularity, but it is my hubby’s favorite and I do like how it sounds with our last name. [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] is the other contender (nn [name\_u]Cory[/name\_u]). It isn’t very popular right not, but since it is a C name that ends with -in, I can see it blending into that category of high frequency names. What are your thoughts on the two? [name\_m]How[/name\_m] much more popular do you think [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] will get after the Duck Dynasty fall-out? We really loved [name\_m]Gavin[/name\_m], but it is SUPER popular right now and I hear it all the time so we said no to that one. Thanks so much! ---

[name\_m]How[/name\_m] about [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u]? I think [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] is a handsome combo. ---

[name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] is popular in Romance novels, it has been for years. [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] as far as I know is not very popular. Only one I have heard of is the actor [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] Bernsen. I do have to say I am not a fan of nicknames. I say if you like [name\_u]Cory[/name\_u] then use [name\_u]Cory[/name\_u]. [name\_u]Corey[/name\_u] is a great boy name. I went to school with a [name\_u]Corey[/name\_u]. ---

I’m not a huge fan of either one. [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] is going to get “lost” in a sea of his peers with similar names, and I don’t think [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] has enough substance to work by itself. (Not to mention the ridiculous number of “jay” names that are popular right now.) I would just use [name\_u]Cory[/name\_u] if you plan to call him that anyway. [name\_f]Do[/name\_f] you like [name\_m]Cormac[/name\_m] or [name\_u]Cortland[/name\_u]? Maybe even [name\_u]Casey[/name\_u], [name\_u]Asa[/name\_u], or [name\_u]Trace[/name\_u]? ---

I actually really like both names. [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] is on my list as well if we end up having a son but I have the same popularity worries that you do. I agree with the previous poster that suggested [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] but if you don’t like that combo then my vote is [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u]. Good luck! ---

I like [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] a lot more than I like [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u]. [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] sounds cooler, fresher, and a lot more modern. Honestly, popularity shouldn’t factor into the name choice if you and your husband legitimately love it. Go for what you love and you won’t regret it. ---

I really like [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] without any nicknames. It does blend in with the popular -in names but still stands out, too. I don’t know anything about the Duck Dynasty fall out. ---

I have never watched Duck Dynasty in my life so I didnt even know that the name [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] was associated with that. Instead of I thought of The Mortal Instruments book series. Personally, I like [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u] better than [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u]. [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] sounds a little bit nick-namey and also I think will end up sounding more dated later on. ---

I prefer [name\_u]Corbin[/name\_u], I think [name\_u]Jace[/name\_u] is going to get very trendy.
