I posted a while back for my sister. She is expecting her second baby in March, and she is unaware of the gender.
The whole family is leaning towards a boy, and she is set on a girl name as of right now (she asked that I keep it secret). Her first baby girl is Lydia Pearl “Liddy”, and she has just recently fallen in love with Jaxton “Jax” for a boy. The middle name will be Daniel. The combination just gives me Jack Daniels, and I am not sold on the idea.
Does anyone have name ideas in the same genre of Jaxton that I could offer up???
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f] [name_f]Pearl[/name_f] is a lovely name. [name_m]Jaxton[/name_m] feels a bit … out of step next to it? It’s a very different style. Not that it wouldn’t work, but when you add in the [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Daniels[/name_m] reference (which I agree with you about) it might be better to explore other ideas.
Here’s some names that echo Jaxton’s style but might work a little better as a brother to [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and with the middle name Daniel; J names first and then other initials:
[name_m]James[/name_m] or [name_m]Jameson[/name_m]
[name_m]Julian[/name_m] or [name_m]Julius[/name_m]
[name_m]Jacob[/name_m]
[name_m]Jordan[/name_m]
[name_m]Jude[/name_m]
[name_m]Jesse[/name_m]
[name_m]Jared[/name_m]
[name_m]Jethro[/name_m]
[name_m]Jason[/name_m]
[name_m]Justice[/name_m] or [name_m]Justus[/name_m] or [name_m]Justin[/name_m]
[name_m]Jericho[/name_m]
[name_m]Josiah[/name_m]
[name_m]Ajax[/name_m]
[name_m]Maxwell[/name_m] or [name_m]Maximus[/name_m] or [name_m]Maximilian[/name_m]
[name_m]Xavier[/name_m]
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] or [name_m]Xander[/name_m]
[name_m]Zachary[/name_m]
[name_m]Huxley[/name_m]
[name_m]Ezekiel[/name_m] or [name_m]Zeke[/name_m]
[name_m]Felix[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaac[/name_m]
[name_m]Elijah[/name_m]
[name_m]Lennox[/name_m]
[name_m]Rex[/name_m]
[name_m]Ozias[/name_m]
[name_m]Maddox[/name_m]
[name_m]Isaiah[/name_m]
[name_m]Axel[/name_m]
[name_m]Saxon[/name_m]
Yeah before I even finished reading the sentence, my brain was like “Noooo, she can’t name a baby [name_m]Jack[/name_m] Daniels!” I also agree that [name_m]Jaxton[/name_m] is not at all the same style or vibe as [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], if that’s something your sister cares about. It would drive me a little crazy, tbh, but I also hang out on name nerd sites, so I understand that not everyone cares as much.
Anyway, some suggestions (sorry for repeats):
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m] (I feel like this is more classic like [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] but still has a lot of the same sounds as Jaxton.)
[name_m]Jude[/name_m]
[name_m]Jett[/name_m]
[name_m]Jameson[/name_m] (Also a brand of whiskey, but I don’t think [name_m]Jameson[/name_m] [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] is going to immediately make people think of alcohol.)
[name_m]Cassian[/name_m]
[name_m]Landon[/name_m]
[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_m]Alston[/name_m]
[name_m]Charleston[/name_m]
[name_m]Easton[/name_m]
[name_m]Preston[/name_m]
