Honest answers please. My husband and I would just like some outside opinions on the name.
And thank you to those who answered my first question about the first name :)

Jesse is a fine name, but Gunnar is a little strange, sounds like gunner. I would look for a better middle name.

I like both names
If it flows well with your last name than go for it. It's the 2 syllable names in a row that can make it hard to say.
Jesse is a great name and Gunnar is different with out being embarrassing.

gunnar sounds like a dogs name and jesse sounds like a girls name. so that kid will probably be made fun of in school so i wouldnt name him that how about:
jayson jesse
tyler jesse
justin jesse
jacob jesse
dylan jesse
austin jesse
good luck

I hate it
Jesse sounds like Jesse James
Gunnar sounds like Guns
Sounds kind of violent to be honest

love it!!!! congratz!!! JESSE GUNNAR - it is a diff name not every boy will have it like matthew or johnathan. . . it will be his own name . . . but in the end it just be careful that the last name is not way out their from the first and middle cause it can make i world of difference. . . best of luck. . .

I understand that both names have meanings to you, but the name comes off as being sort of a criminal name. I love Gunnar and Jesse, but please don't use them together :) Good luck and God bless!

Sounds great for a soldier's son, or one who might need the strength of a warrior.

I say go for it. My first name is Donald and my middle name is Paul. I am not sure actually what Paul means but I know that Donald is Conqueror or Chieftain.
