Unlike others who are looking for unique name, I would like to name my son something relatively common that won't get made fun of easily (My name was unique and got made fun of a lot)....so just wondering what people thought of the choices Ryan Eric or Jack William

  1. i love traditional too! i love all 4 names you have chosen AND would like them as Eric Ryan and William Jack. Great choices though.


  2. I reckon they are both great names!!

    I prefer Jack William.. it sounds more fluent, Jackson William sounds good too =]

    But Ryan is good too.. it's a good first name, but as a combination I think I like Jack William better.

    To me Jack WIlliam sounds like a strong name that would be the name to a very confident, happpy boy that would maybe grow up to be very succesful and have a good family.

  3. I like Jack William.

  4. JACK WILLIAM

  5. Thank you for considering the effects of the name you choose!  I guess you failed the airhead test!  :D

    May I suggest you pick a name that has some meaning?  Like, naming him after some special person?  Family?  Old friend?  Something like that?

    It's a wonderful opportunity to do something very special for someone who has meant a lot to you!

  6. I like the name Jack. It is very strong and masculine. Also, it will never get pronounced or spelled incorrectly.

    Good for you to step out of the "norm" and name your kid a normal name.

  7. I like Ryan Eric better

  8. Jack William works much better, as Ryan Eric is sort of hard to say.

    I love the name Jack. It's common, but somehow still original. You don't meet many boys with the name Jack.

  9. I like Jack William, and Ryan is nice but Eric? How about Ryan Erickson or Ericsson?

    Jack William or Jackson Will is really cute!

  10. Of your choices, I'd have to go with Jack William ... may I suggest -

    William (Liam) Eric

    Jack Ryan

    Ryan William

    Blessings

  11. I like Jack William more.  I think if someone tells me it's their name, I would remember it.  

  12. Ryan Patrick

  13. LOL I thought that said Jackson William.. I like it..you could still call him Jack. Jackson is a southern name.

  14. I absolutely love the name Jack for a boy - it is really strong and solid.

    (That's interesting - my dad goes by Jack (given name: John) and his brother's name is William - 2 great names!!  They are both very successful!!)

  15. Ryan Eric - love those names

  16. I like Ryan Eric, it also seems more unique. Jack williams is more common.

  17. LOVE Jack William!

  18. Finally someone with common sense. I like both, just wondering are you going to name him jackson or just jack. I actually like Ryan William and Jackson Eric. Another name i like is jason

  19. they suck thyer popular lazy names ike bob and dave. Try somehting really diff. like Kamen.
