All for my friend. Thanks. :)

I only like Sebastian. Justin was WAY overused in the 1980s so it seems outdated to me now. And Jake seems too nickname-y, though I'd take Jake over Jacob any day.

I think that Justin Sebastian would be positively fabulous!

Justin has never been popular here, which should be a good thing ... Except it's now a one-person name, that of Justin Timberlake. I'd assume anyone here who named their son Justin was doing so in his honour, and I'm not into Hollywood names. Otherwise I'd like it. As it is, I prefer Justus.

I like the names, though they are pretty common. I like Justin better than Jake. And of the Jake combo's I like Jake Thomas the best. I do not like Sebastian.

No love what so ever for Justin. It makes me cringe because Justin Timberlake *vomits* comes to mind.
Jake Sebastian gets my vote. I have no love what so ever for Thomas. A certain person I know ruined it for me.

Justin is nms, it sounds too trendy and Justin Timberlake like! As for the Jake combos, Jake Sebastian gets my vote.

Justin is ok. I like Jake Thomas but prefer Jacob Thomas better.

hehe, I'm sorry too ...

Eh, just being silly because at a glance it looked like you meant Sebastian is the only name on the planet you didn't dislike. 'scuse me... :slinks off:

You're not the only one

I was imagining Sabrina Fair having a whole bunch of sons and naming them all Sebastian. Like that Dr. Seuss book where the mother named all her children Dave. It amused me greatly for about thirty seconds.

(The above is not intended to be a slam, by the way. Sabrina, you are hereby entitled to mock me mercilessly the next time I make a typo.)

I like Justin. The Jake combos flow well although I'm not into nns on the bc.

Saint Justin seemed like a really neat person, but other than that, I don't personally care for the name. It just seems so dated and generic. I do like Jake Sebastian, though Jake seems a bit insubstantial for a stand-alone fn. Would you consider Jacob Sebastian?

I dislike Justin- it has always seemed weak and boring to me. I prefer Justice or Justus, but none of them are really my cup of tea.

I don't like Jake as a full name (I know too many dogs named Jake), but Jacob is nice. Jacob Thomas would be my pick.

Justin = very 80s here. I knew several Justins my own age, and that puts me off the name, whatever virtues it might possess.

I dislike Jake as a full name, but I'd rather see Jake Thomas (because I can't stand Sebastian). It flows decently enough.
