Oh dear… The Ripper (sorry!) :see_no_evil:

I actually really like the name though. The pirate is a big association too, as well as many other good Jacks both real and fictional.

Jack [name_u]Sparrow[/name_u] is my first association! :grin: I also think about [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Pearson[/name_m] from This is Us. :blush: I think both are good associations.

It’s my favourite name, but everytime I read/heard [name_m]Jack[/name_m] I sing in my mind: “[name_m]Jack[/name_m] and [name_f]Jill[/name_f] went up the hill, to fetch a pail of water, so they say the subsequent fall was inevitable…” Which is a song from [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] the musical (and I loved this musical years ago)

Also [name_m]Jack[/name_m] from [name_m]Jack[/name_m] and the Beanstalk, an [name_m]Jack[/name_m] from The Idhun’s Memories (a book I read when I was 12 or so)

Jack Whitehall was the first celebrity I thought of, but my first thought was [name_m]Jack[/name_m] from Titanic.

Jack and the Beanstalk for me too! And [name_m]Jack[/name_m] the Giant Killer. [name_m]Jack[/name_m] is one of my favorite names because it’s so prevalent in folk tales, fairytales and fiction in general.

First celebrity I thought of was [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Nicholson[/name_m] and ironically enough, the first character I thought of was him as [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_u]Torrance[/name_u] in The Shining.
