Looking for Baby Names Starting with J

I have a Jackson-and I love the spelling Jaxon. Also have friends with a son named Jax. If you have a girl and use Ashton(my husband's name) as a middle name, I've seen people spell it Ashtyn. I like the choices you've come up with now it's just about narrowing them down.

My daughter's name is Jetta! Its the only Jetta we've ever heard of besides Clifford the big red dog's friend Jetta on the t.v. show. And we didn't name her after her, or the car!

J. - good luck! My name is J.. My ex is Jay. My kids are Jason and J.. J.'s kids are Joseph and Jordan. Their fathers are Jeremiah and Jason. My stepdaughters are Jana and Jena (their mother's name is Jeanine). Jana's children are Jessica and Jamie. Jena's daughter is Josephine (Josi). It gets worse. My dad is James and his wife is Jill. When I need to yell at someone it is almost impossible and I never get the name right....

I think Jordan Brooke Patterson is TOO cute! Good luck!

Hi J.! I love J names and all my boys have one! You've listed 1 of them: Joshua, my other boys are Jason and Josiah (jo-si-uh). He's almost 20 and he has always loved his name. We've never called him Joe (which I'm not fond of anyway) although he went through a period with friends where he allowed them to call him Joe, but that only lasted a few years and everyone calls him Josiah. It is the "same" name as Joshua in meaning, one is Greek and one is Hebrew, which both boys (men!) think is pretty cool as well. When I was pregnant with Josiah, I had picked out Jerusha for a girl...Billy Graham has a granddaughter with that name and I thought it was beautiful.

I like Jade - I also had a friend named Jada, which I always thought was pretty.

My son is Jace and we get compliments all the time. For a girl I like Julianna.

Julie, maybe Julie Ann

hey my kids names are Jill Lauren & Jesse good luck!

T.

How about JADEN for a girl. Don't have one for a boy yet.

All 3 of my kids have the same initials JKC. My son is Josiah Keith and my 2 girls are Jetton Kree (pronounced Ja-tawn, also spelled Jatone) and the baby girl is Jasper Kaycee. The kids are always getting compliments on their names. And none of the 3 shorted their name. Actually Josiah does not like it when people call him Joe or Sy. We also thought of Jayton for a boy or girl. We use to get out the US atlas and checked towns that started with J as well.I also work with a guy and his daughters name is Jorah. Hope this gives you some ideas! Let us know what you end up choosing! Good luck!

I always loved the name Justine, but it is too close to my own name (and I never had a girl). I have a son named Jacob.
C.

Here is one that you don't ever hear of, but it is one of my favorite names for a girl-

Janessa

I don't know about the middle name, haven't thought that far. Let us know what you choose. Have fun! When is your baby due?

Hi J.,
I know you have had so many responses, I might be repeating some names but I really love Jill for a girl or Jilllian and for a boy I like Jastin (Justin with an A).

Good luck!

I really like Jace Connor; sounds good and it's still a unique name. Jackson is becoming too popular. Girl names that I really like are Jocelyn and Julianna. I've heard the name Julianna Paige and I think it has a very nice ring to it. Good luck!

Do you like the spelling for Jade like Jayd? That is my sisters name and she gets lots of compliments. Jayd Alexys, I think that sounds and looks pretty.

ditto Jackson/Jaxon with a nickname of Jax...

Jackson for a boy, Jenna for a girl (has the first part of your name)

Johan Clare - Jacob colton

My daughter's name is Emily Jordan, but we call her Jordan. I think that name is becoming more popular for girls.

My daughter's name is Justine Rene. But could get confusing with your Justin??

My name is Jacqueline, I go by J. and I really like my name. It is unique enough where there aren't a bunch of folks with my name at church, work, etc. It's professional yet feminine. Yet, I can still get stuff off the rack with my name on it! (Thanks Mom!)

J.

Boys Jared and Josiah

Girls Joanna Faith, Jammie Elizabeth, Jasmine

Hey there! My daughter's name is "Jenna" and it is a variation of my sister's middle name "J."... which would fit for your situation. I get lot's of compliments about it. At first I thought it was an uncommon name, but I later found out it was the 24th most popular name a couple years ago!!

Good luck! and congrats!!

:)C.

Boys-Jesse James, Jericho Michael, Jazen Marshall, Jordan Anthony

Girls--Jazen Marie, Jessica Marie (Marie's my middle name, sorry :) Jordyn Marie

I say Jamie Patterson. It's unisex. You can select two middles name you like that are more gender oriented. I thought it was cool when Jamie Foxx (the actor/comedian) said that he chose that name because women were getting called up for an amature stand up night at a comedy club more than men - or something along those lines. I like Jamie Ray for a boy and Jamie Renee for a girl. (Of the ones you have listed I like Jared Marshall Patterson for a boy.) Good Luck!

You have had so many responses, and I read through a few, so I maybe duplicating some. Since your husband's name is Jay, you could very easily use that and add to it as well. When I was pregnant with my son, we had names picked out for boy or girl. My husband's father's name was Jay, and he passed away when my husband was fifteen years old. There was no question that his first born would be named after his father boy or girl.
The name we picked out for a boy, I have heard used as a girls name also.

The boy name was Jayden Lee.
The girl name was Jayna Lynn.

Both names had the "Jay" in them, but they still had their own identity.

I love Jordan Brooke! I also like Jase for a boy.

my best friend and her two sisters all start with j. their names are jenny jamie and janell. also, i love the name joey for a girl, jordyn is cute too.

Hi J. P! I'm J. too and I have 3 kids...Jordan Guy, Joseph Conner (Joey), and Jacy (Jay-cee) Lynn. We loved the name Lacy but I wanted a J name so we just changed it to a "J." I actually wanted to spell it Jaici but her dad said that since we didn't know anyone with that name @ the time we should keep it simple. Here are some more J names we concidered:
Boys: Justice, Jarret, Jaron, Jathan, Jake, Jenson, Jaden
Girls: Jenna, Jaida, Jensen, Jaydan

Congrats on the new baby. I think you guys have already hit the ground running with great names. My vote would be on just a new combination of what you already have come up with, like Jadin Elizabeth or Jessica Alese and for a boy James Ashton, James Avery, Joseph Avery, Jaden Cole, or even Joseph Tyler. Whatever the baby's name, enjoy the blessing.

Girl: Julia Anne Patterson
boy; James Michael , John Paul Patterson (or JP for short)
keep us posted on what you pick-- have fun!

For a girl there's Jami and maybe the middle name you chose Aaven. It would be easy to say when she's in trouble. :)

For a boy Jamison Andrew or Jude.

Congrats! Good luck in choosing a name. Keep us posted on what you decide.

BOY: Jaden Michael, Jack Logan, Jason Alexander, Jeremy Taylor, Jonathan Eric, Joseph Ashton

GIRL: Jordan Brooke, Jaden Elizabeth, Jillian Rose, Jovi Grace

Boy: Jackson Monroe
Girl: Julia Elizabeth

Our son's name is Javed (pronounced like David with a J). We will probably call him Jave when he get's older...It's a little different, but we love it! :)

GIRLS:
Jalyn Marie Patterson
Jenna Leigh Patterson
Joley Ann/Nicole Patterson
Jordyn Nicole Patterson
Jessica Ann/Elizabeth/Nicole Patterson
Janey Aaven/Leigh Patterson
Jeanna (G-Ana) Nicole Patterson

BOYS:

Jared Taylor Patterson
Jordan Alexander Patterson
Jayson/Jason/Jasen/Jacen Connor/Daniel/Ayden Patterson

Sounds like you have a lot of great names to chose from - this one is a little unusual but I love it - Jai (rhymes with Ty)

How about Julian Troy, he would have the same initials as Dad.

My sons name is Jaxson Dwayne. You can spell it Jackson.

Jackson David
Joseph Micheal

Good Luck..

Girl name Jamia, pronounced jaymeeuh, my cousin's name, and you can vary the spelling if you want her to be named after dad, etc.

My kiddos are Jace Daniel and Jada Marie. My nephew is Jordan Carl. We all love the J's!! :)

Jillian was in the running for our 2nd daughter's name. My husband's choice won out, but I'm holding on to this one in case we go for #3.

Hi J.,

for a boy, we used Joshua Matthew and his son is Aidan Joshua (could be Joshua Aidan)
for a girl, our granddaughter is Jordan Faith

Good luck, it is always fun picking names . . . and you know it always works out to be just right.

Hi J.,
There are darling twins at my sons preschool there names are Jolie, and Jobe. pronounces (JOEBEE)
Good Luck,
K.

J.,

I love J names too,but we use them for the middle name, my son is Landen Jakob and I am saving Lucas James if we have another baby boy one day. Anyway, for a boy I like:

Jacob(Jakob)Lane Patterson

For a girl:

I like the name someone stated earlier, Julia Paige Patterson, that flows really well.

Good luck!!

I was going to say Jaden(I have a son named Shaden!) and I see you've already thought of that! I love that and I love the Jordan for a girl.Congrats!

I love your choices of Jade Ashton and Jase or Jace Conner

Other names I like (some with middle names) include
Girl: Julianna Camilla, Jenna Grace, Jane Audrey, Jersey, and Joy Ashton
Boy: Jack Hunter, Jett Michael, Jude, and Josiah

Good Luck!

I love the name Jonah Blaine. I also like Jantzen but not sure how it goes with your last name.

Good Luck!!!

Hi. I personally like Jadyn for a girl or Jaden for a boy. We had decided before we knew what we were having that we were naming the child Jadyn Michelle or Jaden Michael. We had a beautiful baby girl, Jadyn Michelle!

I don't have any boys but I have 3 girls with J names...I have Jazmine Sachairi, Jayden Aries, and Josalyn Sue. I like Jayla too but hubby said no. I've always love the name Jacob for a little boy.
Good Luck!

J., Jean, Joanna, Jill,

Jack, Joseph

My little girl's name is Jillian Paige. You're more than welcome to use it. Our other little girl choices were Jillian Reese and Jacie Cameron.

For boys we only thought of Justin Andrew.

We knew early on we were having a girl, so that's we we lacked for boys' names.

Hope this helps! Good luck on choosing a name!

Hi J.!

I like using part of you or your husband's names in the baby name:

like for a girl:

Jaylee Grace
I like Jayna or Jaylen/Jaylin too. (The Jay part from your husband)
You could also do Jenna since your name is J..
And I have a friend named Jerica (her family does all J's too!)
(and I love Kate and Grace as middle names...)

For a boy:
Jensen (actually this is cute for a boy or a girl. I knew a guy named Jensen in high school who grew up to be an actor, on tons of tv shows... he was so cute. you can't not be cool and handsome with a name like jensen! :-) then, also, i have a friend who named her baby girl jensen... too cute.)
Jackson or Jack
Jayce (spelled with your husband's name)
Jayden
and old fashioned names like Joshua, Jacob and Jonathan
Jordan's cute for a boy too... boy or girl.

You have so much choices!!!

Well, I couldn't resist...

My name is J. (pronounced Gina) It's another way to spell it that is unique and different.

My brother named his son Jasper. (May be too old fashioned for some).

Good luck!

Get enough response! lol ;).

Since yor hubbys name is Jay..I like Jacob because it sounds like Jay Cub...Jay's Cub...cute.

Girls:
Jada Marie Josie michelle, Gracie Renee, leanee, lol just a few...

Boy: John Micheal, John Anthony ( I don't know to many for boys I have all girls)......

I love Jonathan Tyler! (My son's name) I also have a Jack Raistlin!

Julia Paige for a girl.....

Jackson Keith....

how about jasmine, jocelyn, julianna

girl - Jewel Leigh
Julia Claire

boy - Jedidiah (means 'beloved of the Lord - it was Solomon's nickname that the prophet called him, Jed for short) Lee

Two family friends have unusual girls' 'J' names: Jenise (rhymes with Denise) and Jenica (or it might be Jennica ... rhymes with Seneca). Both are great people, too, so the names must carry good 'karma.' :)

Don't you love picking out names??
Best wishes!
Geri

Girls: Jaci, Jadah, Julia, Juliet
Boys: Jeremiah, Jack, Jeffrey

I understand about the "J" name because everybody in my family name starts with a "J" but me.I have 3 boys and their names are Joseph, Julius, and James. My husbankd name is Jeffrey and I just had a little girl and we named her Jewel Elizabeth. Good Luck

Girls: Jade Arden, Jeri Camille, Jocelyn Camille

What about Jaylin for a girl and I just love Jacob for a boy. Jaylin will kinda be after your husband's name, I don't know if you want to go that route. Good luck finding a name.

Hi J.,

I have two J name kids - Julia and Jared. My husband is Jason and I am J.. We also considered Jack and have friends with a Julie Ana. Good luck finding the right J name!

My mil's name is Jeania (pronounced Gina). One of my daughters name is Julia Elizabeth. And a friend of mine has a Josie, which I think is really cute. I also like Jenna, Jocelyn, Joelle, Jillian... And my favorite for a boy is Jonah.

Good luck!

How about Jaxx Ethan?

Jeremiah
Julian
Jordan
Jack(my dad's name):-)
Jake
Jaden or Jayden

James, Joshua,Jacob, Jonathan(all common and cute)
I love the Ashton as a middle name!
My friend just named her son Jordan Monroe(she loves Marilyn)

Girls:
Jaqueline
Joslin
Janna
Julianna
Jessica is cute(but common)
Jacee or Jacie or Jacey
I love Jade, but someone told me it sounded too much like "Jade to the center stage" if you know what I mean. (I still like it though)!
J's are hard for girls!

Girl name: Jessica Lynn
Boy name: John Micheal

We are all J names too! I have 4 kids Jacob Aaron, Julie Renee, Joanna Marie, and Jodie Danielle. I am also J. and my husband's name is Jay as well! Some of the other names we considered were Jenna Nicole, Julia Marie, Jada Beth, Joshua Ryan, and Jarrett Daniel.

I know a gal, has 4 daughters, Jonnie, Jamie, Jimmie, Jodie.

Here are few randomly from names I've had to type or read

Girl: Jazzica Angelique, Julie Kay, Julia Renee, Jenea (Juh-nay), Rayna Joy, Janel Martise

Boy: Jamon Kyle, Jamison Keith, Jackson Cade Patterson, Joey Payton, Jayson Wade,

My girl names for you are: Julia and Jocelyn

My boy names for you are: Jonas and Jonah

Have fun name searching! Are you going to find out the sex?

Grandparents have any cool names? As a teacher do NOT use any names that can go for a girl or boy (Jordan,etc). You have some great names listed already... JonPaul? I love Jane!
Good luck and blessings!

Girl Jayden or Jaylin or Boy Jaydon.

Girl-Jalissa Kate, Janee Marie

If I had a daughter I wanted to name her Janee because my moms middle name is Lenee, but my husband wasn't real fond of it. However, I love the name. Also, I have a friend named Jalissa. It is very different.

I like Jayden or Jordyn for girls

Mine are all J's too...although it can get a bit confusing now that there are three of them.

Joshua Mikhal, Jakob Gabriel and Joseph Zakiel

A close friend also has named all her boys with J's...Jonathan David, Jeremy Daniel, Jayden Alexander, Jaycob Aaron and Jackson Cooper.

And one of my favorites is John Augustine.

Something to think on...and good luck keeping all the names straight when you're yelling at one to pick up after themselves! :o)

Go to babynames.com and you can search by letter, origin, all kinds of good stuff. Congratulations!

Go to babynames.com S.

Well my favorite boy name is Justin Cole and for a girl Jewelia (pronounced like Julia just a unique way of spelling it). It would go with any of the middle names you have already picked.

my daughter's name is Jaclyn Marie. We don't call her Jackie (I hate it), so we call her Jac, which is neat because she's named after my grandfather Jack Armstrong (also a terrific name).

HI, J.,

I have a frind who has twin daughters named Jasper and Jinx.

BOY NAMES: GIRL NAMES:
Jairen Jinora
Jaren Jana or Jeana
Jared Jema
I love all these names!

I'm going with J. - that's my name and I was somewhat named after my father Jules. Oh and if it helps my name I also have a son named Travis!
Since my father had no sons, both of my boys have my maiden name as their middle name.
Good Luck
J.

We have a lot of J's in our family as well. We have James William, James Rapheal, Johnathan Edeward, and Jalyn Patrick. Hope this helps.

Nicole

I love the name Jillian Marie.

Jaylon, Jaylah, Jalin, Jiah, Jaleise, Jalisa, Ja'rius (prounced Ja'rye'us), Jarius, Jayslyn, Joslyn, Jaylee, Joliet

You've gotten so many responses! My only suggestions are to pay attention to what the 3 initials spell out (you don't want it to be something the kids could be teased about) and to name them something that is fairly easy to pronounce and spell. It's very frustrating for kids when they have to correct teachers/others about how their name is pronounced or spelled for the rest of their lives.

Good Luck!

Before I knew my son was a son, we were thinking of Jolee Phalen (Fay-Lyn) for a girl and an old friend's son is named Johnson for his first name. Also my daughter's name is Georgia, could be spelled Jorja (actress on CSI). Hope this helps!

I just had to pop in with a suggestion to not go with Jaden. The names Aiden, Jaden, Caden, and Hayden have become so common! I have an Aiden, and we're always meeting rhyming peers:) It must be a good name, though!

for A girl Justice Alai,Juleah Rae,Jaslene Tatum
for A boy Jermajesty Chasce,Journey Braylon

My family is full of J's My daughter is Jasmine Elizabeth, my neice is Jayla, Nephew is Jared Edward, Joel, Jamie Joshep, and Jaylyn, my brothers are James Henry and Joe Edward.
