    Another "what do you think" thread!

    Ok so we still don't have a name for this boy - but came across this name the other day. I think I like it.

    Jad

    What do you think?

    It means 'benevolent' so I think thats kind of a cool meaning for your child

    It makes me think of either Chad or Jed being mispronounced. Not a fan, sorry

    Yeah I agree. I think he'd just get a lot of people calling him Chad.

    Yeah I agree. I think he'd just get a lot of people calling him Chad.
    And thats when he corrects them and says "no my name is Jad!!"

    Its all good! Thats why I asked!! All opinions welcome

    I think if Jad was just the shortened version of a longer name it would be better...

    Im still not totally convinced against it yet!

    I think it sounds more like a nickname. I don't know if I'd use it. I don't love it, but I don't dislike it.

    It looks like Jade with the "e" missing. We affectionately call a friend "Jad Jad" but I'm sorry I think it's part of a name.

    First thing I thought was..... Whoops someone really spelled 'Jared' wrong!

    Not a fan, it just looks unfinished

    Sorry, I don't like it either.

    But I really like Jed, short for Jedediah, meaning "Friend of God"

    DH says no
