It is very interesting and classy. Maybe it would be better as a middle name though?

In Firefly, there was a character named Jubal Early for the Confederate general. I will always think of that!

---

It has appealing syllables. Jules, Julian, Jude, Jubal... I don't dislike the sound of it. But I think it belongs in the realm of characters, a little too out there for real life.

I immediately thought “Jubal Early”. Partly because of the Confederate General, and partly because of Firefly.

All the same, it’s not the worst.

well, i like it less now that i know it was the name of a Confederate general, and that'd be the biggest association outside of the Biblical character (though i don't know yet how well known he is- i grew up in NY and now live in MD). the name and story behind it is sweet though (i really like musical associations and meanings, and they're a little hard to find).

i also like how it sounds so simple, and yet it stands out so much. based just on sound of it, it makes me think of fruit, warm colors, and summer.

I want to like it, but it feels incomplete. Even though it's pronounced different I always want to say Jubal-ee. It is kind of cool.

It sounds like an adjective version of jube (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jujube_(confectionery)) - describing something as being like a jube?

It doesn't do anything for me.

It sounds really African to me. I don't like the sound of it, or the Jub- beginning.

It reminds me of Jobal Naberrie from Stars Wars, but she didn't make it into the final cut of the movie, so probably not a common association.

I used to like Jubal for a girl, but even then I preferred Jubilee.

---

I think it reminds me of Jewel, and thinking about it for a guy, I imagine someone chubby.

I think it’s nice and usable. I think of the figure from the Torah and don’t really think of the confederate general. The meaning is also nice.

I knew a family with a little boy named Jubal. I think it's an ok name.

I know of a man named Jubal, he's in probably his 50's. I dislike it. For me it comes down to it reminding me of tubal ligations and so it's a weird thing for me.
