So we’ve changed our minds on our daughters name sooooo many times I can’t count. One thing that’s for sure is her middle name James. It’s my FIL’s name and we like it a lot.
For me personally I would like her name to start with with a “J”. Our first daughter has R.R initials so this baby would have J.J.
There’s many names I loved and he hated and vice versa.
My debate now is that we have kinda agreed on a name but I’m nervous that it’s a bad name… the first name is my dad’s name so it would be both our dads names as hers just spelt a little different.
Jessie James
I’m sure people google names to see if there’s anything incorporated with them and in this case there’s the outlaw jesse James and sandra bullocks ex husband? Idk but I think jesse James was a racist and I’m scared that people will get the wrong idea about why we named our daughter that…lol should I be worried or say eff it, it’s literally our family names?

It’s a cute name to me just not very feminine for a girl. It’s a boys name and she may get teased in school that she is really a boy. Kids are cruel. Jessie for a girl is usually short for Jessica.

^ I don't agree that it's not feminine. There's a country singer Jessie James Decker. I think it's cute! If James is her middle name, she could just go by Jessie at school

@Raven kids are definitely not cruel like they were when we were in school. I'll tell you that much.
I like the name you've picked out, and if you love it, you should stick with it!
I know James isn’t very feminine but we just like names that can be used neutrally. I mean our first daughters name is Ryan and we love that for her lol plus kids won’t know her middle name is James unless she tells them so I’m not worried about that.
Jessie I’ve never heard short for jessica. Jess, sure but Jessie is a pretty common name and I think the spelling is common for a girl. Makes me think of Jessie from Toy Story lol

She asked a question and I gave my opinion. And I don’t know where you live but where I live and where my friends kids attend school, public and private there are still some cruel children. I’m entitled to my opinion just as you are. Have a great day.

All that really matters is if you love the name and are comfortable. I just gave my opinion without judgement. No one else’s opinion really matters but you and your husband 😊💕

@Raven I'm not attacking you lol. Some people are soo defensive. I'm just saying, kids really overall aren't as cruel as they used to be. Have your opinion and have a nice day. 👍

I can only think about the outlaw

I think it's super cute! As a millennial who was OBSESSED with Pokémon growing up, I think of Team Rocket as well. But I love that!

girl 😂 go play with someone else today. No where did I state you attacked me 🤦🏻♀️ my hormones are not in the mood for your passive aggressive comments. Don’t @ me again please.
omg!! You’re right!! How could I forget!! Lol I love Pokémon 😭

MY passive aggressive comment? 🤣 you're too fuckin much. Again, have a nice day. 👍

wow, such a woman of God. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm sorry to OP that this person wants to bully you out of a name you genuinely like with shitty gender norm stereotypes and then claim it's because people will bully your child, and also sorry you have to read this person's shitty responses to what was supposed to be an innocent comment from me. Jesus fucking christ.
