Help[Opinions] Re: Jack
in reply to a message by fern.avalon
It's not too common for me. I don't know any Jacks, nor have I ever. For that reason I like it, it's snappy and scrappy but it has a warmth to it. I also like Jackie on a boy.

I'm amazed you don't know any. In the UK it was he number one name for boys from 1996 to 2008! I would have thought it would have shared similar popularity levels elsewhere.
Having said that, it is very handsome.

I'm surprised too! I've known many Johns and Jons, but none went by Jack.
I wonder if it's because "jack" is a slang word in North America? "Jack sh**" meaning "nothing" is a pretty common phrase... Maybe people don't use the name because of that association.
