Boy Name Poll

We really need help and since we're not telling anyone we know IRL the names, I'm posting a poll here.

Jace has been our favorite name. But if you say it out loud with our last name it loses the S sound at the end and sounds like Jay instead of Jace. Let's say my last name were something like Smith. Middle name is Carmine, if it matters. Which boy name do you like best with the last name?

Re: Boy Name Poll

Mason or Jacob. I voted for Mason.

Mason has been really growing on me lately; it's a cute name.

I like Jacob and the nickname Jake a lot.

Jace is actually really cute too, but I don't know about it.

Nathan or Jacob. I really like both, but love Jake as a nickname to Jacob. Nathan & Jake are both on my list.

I really like both Mason and Nathan. I think Nathan sounds better with Smith but I like the name Mason better. But both names are very nice.

Re: Boy Name Poll

Since you like Jace, stick with it. How often will he be called Jace Smith?

"Smith" is the similar-sounding last name.

Knowing your last name, I agree with how Jace sounds - it will definitely sound like Jay. Your concerns are not unfounded!

Of your other choices, I really love Mason. It was one of my choices, but DS knew a student with the name and nixed it. Chat Icon

I got that, but seriously how often is a child called their first and last name? First couple of days of school? I think she will regret not choosing a name she loves.

What about Jason, with Jace as the nickname? Im actually going through something similar- like Chase/Jace, but have an "S" last name, so I understand the issue. Jason is one of the choices we came up with in light of this. Nathan/Nate is also on our list!

Re: Boy Name Poll

Haha, thanks for the help everyone! We've been so torn I was hoping for a landslide for one of the names.

I was hoping you'd respond! And I'm glad you confirmed I'm not crazy about how the names flow together. I LOVE the name Jace, but it just doesn't flow.
