User Comments about the name Jackson


Comment left Apr 14, 2008: "I love, love, love it!! My 6 1/2 year little boy is named Jackson and I still love it. It is a strong name but so sweet too. I was inspired by the Julia Roberts movie, Steel Magnolias. The Jackson in the movie was SOO cute and I just thought it would make such a beautiful name. My little boy has never gone by anything else and I have never let anyone shorten it to Jack, although I do like that name also. A couple of times someone said Jackie and I was like, NO! Other than that, it is pretty straight forward, people usually dont mispronounce it or anything. I do have to say I didn't know any other Jacksons when he was born but it seems to be pretty popular now." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Nov 27, 2007: "Jackson is a strong solid name. I was fortunate enough to have Jackson as a last name. My father didn't have any boys, and I am pleased to announce that I gave my oldest son the first name of Jackson." (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Aug 31, 2006: "Why would you torure you children by naming them last names? Seems to be inspired from deep intellectual talks that began at barnes and noble. The oohs and ahhs came while drinking a mocha latte right before the yoga class, which brings out the "freedom" in you. How unique. Madison is one of your nieces I bet." (Report as inappropriate)
