So I thought I would ask you all the question I ask nearly every one of my friends and family members..

My husband's maternal grandfather was named Jack. He was a huge influence in my husband's life and he has always wanted to name our son Jack, but felt he couldn't with his last name. His last name is Hoffman.. So our son would be named Jack Hoffman. I absolutely love the name Jack, but I can understand how this name could lead to teasing and wouldn't want my child to go through that. So what do you think? Would that be irresponsible to name our child this?? I wonder if in say ten years the slang would even still exist? I'm not sure. Tell me what you think!

TIA!

Oh. Well, I know what jacking off is, but I didn't make the connection right away. Jack HOFF would suggest it, HOFFMAN, doesn't. :D

it took me a few minutes, but that is probably because i am not a prepubescent boy. first i thought "jack off" and then i realized its actually "jack off, man"

what a shame. :(

I read it as, "Jack-Off-Man!", like Superman or Batman or Spider-Man.
