Baby Name: What do you think of this boy name??

My husband and I haven't settled one bit on the babies name. Our most recent that we both agree on is Jacob. Are most Jacobs you know nice boys/teens/men/elderly men? Usually people grow into their names in my opinion.





It would be Jacob Patrick Kerr most likely. Or Jacob Stephen Kerr.





What you think??

Baby Name: What do you think of this boy name??
Hi :)





My nephew's name is Jacob Stephen and he's a sweetheart. He was born with one blue eye and one brown eye because he has Horners Syndrome but he is perfectly healthy!


He's a sweet boy and very cute. A lot of the girls fall head over heals for him. He's a blonde boy with a kind of Mohawk haircut. He's only 6 years old.





I thought it was cool when you said Jacob Stephen, because that is my nephews name! I thought I better write to this mom and tell her I love that name! :)








Good luck with your little one. The name Jacob is a great name for a little boy and when he grows up he will love it!

Jacob is a slug-a-bed,


A child of many dreams.


Can he come out to play instead?


Oh, no! He's prancing in his head,


Bestride his golden steed.





P.S. What is a slug-a-bed? I have never heard that before?

Reply:Nothing against Jacob, its a good name..I just prefer the name ``Jared麓麓 Jared Stephan Kerr??


it's a biblical name aswell.


Its just as good and masculine as Jacob and will carry him into adulthood well, its just a little less old fashioned than Jacob;
Reply:I like them both.


He will be called Jake Kerr, tho. Maybe JP Kerr


We named our son John David thinking to call him JD-well it was silly for a baby, and now he is "Jack"
Reply:Either one is an excellent choice.
Reply:i think jacob stephen kerr
Reply:Jacob Patrick is great! Jake is a nice nickname for a young boy, but Jacob is far from "too old" for a child.
Reply:Jacob Stephen


Jacob Kyle


Jacob Miles


Jacob Ian





Good luck! My cousin named her son Jacob and he is such a great kid; very well-mannered. Jacob is also a good Bible name.
Reply:I love the name Jacob and it's very respectable for when he grows up into a man. I would have named my first son Jacob, but we already have a Jacob in my husband's family. Our Jacob is a very kind, warm child.
Reply:I know a bunch of Jake's. They are all really nice, friendly guys. Keep in mind he will be a Jake, not a Jacob - that is really inevitable.
Reply:I like Jacob Patrick Kerr.
Reply:I like the name Jacob and most Jacob's/Jake's I know are good people. Of the two names you're considering, I like Jacob Stephen best.
Reply:I like both of them....But what about: Jacob Allen Kerr


Jacob Sean Kerr


Jacob (w/e dad's middle name is...)Kerr


Jacob John Kerr


Jacob Jack Kerr


Jacob Henry Kerr.....
Reply:I like it and considered it for my son but we went with Joseph
Reply:Like the name, but keep this in mind. Jacob has been on the top ten boy names list for several years running. We live in a town with 4,500 residents and out of the five second grade classes in my son's school last year, there were 2 Jacob's in each class. So, if you don't mind him being known as Jacob K, then go for it.
Reply:I like Jacob Patrick myself...





Congrats!
Reply:I have always liked the name Jacob! I like Patrick better than Stephen, it flows better imho.
Reply:I don't like either one really, to old fashioned. Most guys I have met with either name were kinda on the nerdy side, bald, and overweight as adults. But if I had to pick one between Patrick and Stephen, I would say Patrick.
Reply:Jacob Stephen Kerr





Jacob was the number one name last year
Reply:Jacob Stephen Kerr is a nice name!

Reply:Jacob Patrick Kerr. Good strong names, easy to spell and pronounce and good for child and adult. Suggests to me someone happy, intelligent, good with other people, polite, and hard-working.
Reply:JACOB STEPHEN
Reply:Jacob is a great name, which is currently popular, but that doesn't stop it from being a great name! I know a lot of men named Jacob and some kids, and they all tend to be good people.





I love the combination Jacob Patrick Kerr. What a great name!
