Jackson and all its variants
It seems there are so many Jacksons these days and with different spellings. Which do you like?
I don’t mind Jackson or Jaxon but Jaxxon and Jaxson are too much. I’ve also seen Jacksyn for a girl.

Jackson isn't really my style of name, so I wouldn't chose it personnally. Not saying it's awful or anything, it's just not one of my favs.If some parents would chose that name for their child, I'd go with the traditional spelling ''Jackson''. I'm boring like that, but I feel that it seems more serious once the person grows up and becomes an adult. I really do not like Jacksyn for a girl.

I like Jackson and don't really like any variants, but some are worse than others. I don't like it on a girl at all. I've seen Jaxon, Jaxson and Jaxton.

I like Jackson and Jaxon. Jaxxon and Jaxson are excessive. I don't like any on a girl, even of Jaxyn and Jacksyn look less masculine. I also like the NN Jacks or Jax. I think it's cute.

I like the sound, but Jackson looks too much like a surname for me to like it. Also, definitely not anything with XX or YN.I do really like the spelling Jaxon.

I actually quite like the name Jackson for a boy. And I at least understand the minimalism of Jaxon. My younger cousin, however, is named Jaxson, which I think is a terrible way to spell it, but he's not my kid, so...I also used to know a girl named Jaksen; and while I can't imagine her with any other name (we went to school together), I've still always thought it was odd.

I like Jaxon better than Jackson - it's clearer, less popular and also a modern twist without being overdone (unlike Jaxson and Jaxxon, which are atrocious).I don't like Jacksyn either. Jacklyn would have been better.

I like Jack as a nn for John. I don't enjoy lnfns at all, and if I never met a Jackson with any spelling, I'd be quietly happy.

I definitely prefer Jackson, and because I like names with an 'x' in them, I can go with Jaxon too. While both Jaxxon and Jaxson are a bit too much for me too.I don't like any versions on a girl.

I only like Jackson

I don’t mind any of the variants. I prefer most of them to Jackson, actually. Jaxon is probably my favorite, but I put Jaxxon on my PNL because I feel bad that no one likes it.
