Jade is out. I dislike jewel names in general, and this one sounds like Jane with a bad head cold. Plus, the first Jade I knew was a boy, of Greek descent, with a sister named Amber. This did not make a good impression on me, though he was a perfectly pleasant kid.
Jasmine is also out. Such a very fragrant, dainty, delicately lovely flower! Asking for trouble if its bearer should turn out to be plump, beige and boring; and Jazz is not a nn I'd want to go through life with. Probably better than Jasmine, though.
Hello Jessica! Still very lovely, in spite of its recent time in the spotlight, and more interesting than, say, Jennifer.
