[Opinions] Re: BA and Help with a twin name...
in reply to a message by Joiya
First, I wanted to share a thought. With many popular names, I hear people saying they can't use them because so-and-so had a child and chose this name. While I can understand, I don't think it's terrible. If you really like a name, and it's in the top 100 (you are not using, say, Persephone a month after your cousin used it) I don't think it's a big deal.Lots of baby Jacksons out there.
So, my first recommendation would be go with Jackson if you like the name.
Anyway, I could see Jake and Josh, or Jake and Jonah. I like Joaquin but it's not in the same popularity bracket so probably not the best match.

I get what you are saying. From what I believe, the mom-to-be is really close friends with the mother of Jackson, who was just born last week. Since she is due with the twins next month, she was uncomfortable using a name for her son when it was highly likely her son would be friends with and around the other Jackson a lot.
I am totally for using names that others have used. But, not if I am really close with the family or actually related to them.
