Jade

What are your thoughts on this name?

I like it! I don’t think I would use it, but I find it very strong and feminine. However, I couldn’t really see this on a shy or really quiet girl; so I don’t think it would work for every single girl in the world, but that’s just personal opinion.

It’s a great name though.

I think it’s very sleek and streamlined and modern. It evokes the idea of a beautiful green stone. I have an overall positive impression of it. It maybe feels mildly dated to the 1990s but that won’t last forever. I wouldn’t use it, but I like it on other people. I sometimes think I like it as a middle for me. My taste is just not toward modern names usually, so that’s my struggle. But among more modern names it’s one of the better ones - word names are nice!

I love it! I was almost named this, and I kinda wish I was. It’s so beautiful, strong, and exotic, but people can spell it right. I like it more than [name]Jada[/name], but if you’re looking for nicknames [name]Giada[/name] carries the adorable [name]GiGi[/name].

It has a very high importance in Chinese & [name]East[/name] [name]Asian[/name] culture.

But in the US, it’s become a stripper name. Google it and you’ll see.

Honestly, as a fn it feels trashy but I strangely like it as a middle name. I like it for a boy’s fn

Noooo! Damn strippers!

I really like the name [name]Jade[/name].

While I like the concept and even the sound of [name]Jade[/name], I think that it has quite the reputation in the US - I prefer [name]Giada[/name], the Italian form, though [name]Giada[/name] does not have the appeal of being simple and single syllable like [name]Jade[/name], does. I would suggest [name]Jane[/name], but I do not think it has the same exotic type feel to it.

I like it although it does seem a little dated. I don’t think it is a stripper name. It used to sound uncommon and refreshing but now with all the Jadens/Jaydens running around it has lost that specialness.

I love it on a boy…

it’s my daughter’s mn—so we like it! :wink:

I think it would be really fresh and interesting on a boy.

We have a cousin that goes by [name]Jade[/name] almost exclusively (a male in his 20s). On a girl, I agree with the previous comments that it has fallen into the unfortunate “Should come with clear heels” category.
