Jameson vs. Dexter

Or any other suggestions? Wondering if dexter will be constantly referenced to the tv show? Also, [name]Lila[/name] is a girls name I would love to some day use and I know that was a character on the show…but I love the name with nn [name]Dex[/name]!

I don’t watch the show but I prefer cheeky [name]Dexter[/name] to a whiskey brand. [name]Lila[/name] and [name]Dex[/name] sound like a fun pair of siblings.

I love [name]Lila[/name] and like [name]Dex[/name].

[name]Jameson[/name] doesn’t do anything for me. I have one guilty pleasure alcohol name, and that ain’t it.

I prefer [name]Jameson[/name]… I cant help but think serial killer [name]Dexter[/name]… ( it doesnt help that I am watching it at this exact moment)

I’ve always had a thing for [name]Jameson[/name] since there was a suoper cute one in my 4th grade class!lol!

I prefer [name]Jameson[/name], but I think it goes all the way back to when I was a kid watching [name]Jamison[/name] [name]Collins[/name]. [name]Both[/name] [name]David[/name] [name]Selby[/name] and [name]Jonathan[/name] Frakes have sons named [name]Jameson[/name], [name]Selby[/name] because of the show and Frakes because his father was [name]James[/name]. And there’s a [name]Jameson[/name] Point in [name]Maine[/name] which is lovely. [name]Dexter[/name] just makes me think of Poindexter, yuck.

[name]Dexter[/name] all the way! :slight_smile: [name]Jameson[/name] = whiskey and would definitely be shortened to [name]Jamie[/name] which I do like but [name]Dex[/name] & [name]Lila[/name] make a lovely sibset.

[name]Dexter[/name] would be a great name, but for me the seriel killer association is really strong. [name]Jameson[/name] I’m not a fan of though, mostly because of how connected it is to the whiskey, but I also don’t like the ‘son’ ending on it, unless he actually would be [name]James[/name]'s son.

I think [name]Dexter[/name] has too much history and is too handsome of a name to be ruined by one TV show. I like [name]Dexter[/name].

[name]Jameson[/name] isn’t my cup of tea as a first name. It is almost like [name]James[/name] is too common and overused, so [name]Jameson[/name] is used instead to try and spice it up and be less common. I feel like it is trying too hard. :frowning: It also follows the trend of using names that end in “son” as first names, which I don’t care for.

Thanks for your replies everyone!! [name]Both[/name] DH and I really love [name]Dexter[/name] the most and I’m glad to hear most of you agree…I just hope the tv show association won’t be too strong while he is growing up. Anyone have kids whose names are associated with a show, movie, song, etc? [name]How[/name] annoying is it for you, as well as your child?

Well I think [name]Jameson[/name] is a fabulous name and we don’t have a [name]Jameson[/name] whisky and [name]Dexter[/name] is the nerdy cartoon character [name]Dexter[/name] Bumstead so that would never figure for me!
