Hello! For those who didn’t see my last post, my roomie is changing their name. They’ve gotten a bunch of awesome suggestions, and have got them narrowed down to a top two…
Which name do you prefer?
Also, which spelling of Jo(e)?
Thanks!

I prefer [name_u]Jo[/name_u] as a full name, and I think [name_u]Jo[/name_u] is more gender neutral, whereas [name_u]Joe[/name_u] is more masculine. So it depends whay they’re looking for.

love [name_u]Jo[/name_u]! that would be my personal pick. but I agree [name_u]Joe[/name_u] gives a slightly more masculine feel on paper if that’s something you’re after. the name also lends itself easily to [name_u]Joey[/name_u] as a nickname if they’re interested in that (:

I prefer [name_u]Jo[/name_u] in general but [name_u]Jo[/name_u] is quite feminine in spelling and [name_u]Joe[/name_u] is quite masculine. I could see [name_u]Joey[/name_u] going both ways. MJ feels mostly neutral.

[name_u]Jo[/name_u] for a girl. [name_u]Joe[/name_u] for a boy
In my opinion, MJ is the best option! It feels very gender neutral and also is a lovely tie to their birth name. I also like Jo/e, that would also be a good option! [name_u]Jo[/name_u] feels very feminine to me so I would say go with the spelling [name_u]Joe[/name_u]. Good luck!!

MJ without a doubt. Joe/Jo just feels very dated and boring to me, [name_u]Joey[/name_u] is a bit better

Jo/Joe is my favorite of these two. [name_u]Jo[/name_u] is my favorite spelling and it feels more gender neutral to me than [name_u]Joe[/name_u] (although [name_u]Jo[/name_u] tends to slightly lean feminine for me because of associations).
