[Opinions] Re: Jack
in reply to a message by Martha
I used to feel that it was too popular but once I realized that names in the top 50 aren't as common as names used to be I started paying attention more to what percentage of the population has a name rather than what number it is on the list. Remembering how common a name was in my own classes as a kid I realized that when a name is at least .5 percent or higher of the children born that year then it is too common imo.
Jack hasn't been .5 percent or higher for a long time except for one year in the early 2000's so I don't feel that it is too common. It's definitely a well known name that often seems to get used more often in tv shows than in rl.
I really like the combo Jack Edwin. It's vintage feeling but with a cool vibe. It feels neither too formal nor too laid back.
