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

Question

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??

Answer 1

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.

Answer 4

Jacob Stephen Kerr is a nice name!

Answer 5

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.

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.

Jacob Patrick is great! Jake is a nice nickname for a young boy, but Jacob is far from "too old" for a child.

Jacob Stephen
Jacob Kyle
