Jacobi, like Derek, could be cool. But why not Jacob?

For some reason, the Red Sox outfielder can pull off Jacoby, but in general I don't like it as a name.

MaKyda is just awful. That poor kid is going to spend so much time getting people to spell and pronounce it "correctly".

See, just Jacob would be okay. And I think (I could be wrong, though) that Jacoby is an actual name, but I'm not a fan of Jacobe, as I want to pronounce it the same way as Jacob and it looks like a typo.

MaKyda is probably one of the most horrific names I've heard in a long time. I never thought I'd say this, but I actually think Jayden would be better.

This is just one of the reasons 16 year-olds should not have children =)

What does the age of having a child have to do with a name? And who are you to say who SHOULD have children?

I like Jacoby, spelled this way.

I like the way MaKyda sounds, but not the way it's spelled, and I'm not really feeling it for a boy.
