I don't hate it...I kind of like it but I think (and I mean nothing mean or ugly by this) it would have to go with a girl that isn't white or some thing like that. You know? I like it.

I like it for a boy maybe.

I've always liked it for a boy. There is a 7ish year old boy at my church named that.

And even though it makes absolutely no sense etymologically (sp?), I like it for a girl too. *shrug*

Jackson for a girl? wow...next thing you know there'll be little girls named George and David. I really don't like how people use lots of boys names on girls nowadays. Jordan isn't too bad, but the rest....no...not my style at all.

Ugh!

I love it for a boy, but it's SO masculine! O_o How could you ever consider it for a girl?!?

Excuse me while I go kill myself. I thought I'd picked a SAFE name, one that wouldn't be taken by the girls.

Jackson James (Who has a penis) does NOT approve.

Jackson. JACKSON?? How can you even nickname that without being Jack? Jackie? Maybe? Oh ew.

I am so sad now.

We call our son JJ (Because his name is Jackson James) or Jayson (because we call his daddy Jay) or li'l James (cause his daddy's name is James)...not that any of those would work on a girl.

Well, with any luck, maybe this girl's middle name is James. Or John! Or Jaxsin! Jackson Jaxsin nn JJ would be a great name for a girl!

I wonder how you make a vomit smiley...

Your "Happy Jack" is very cute, though!

Haha! Jackson Jaxsin. (Oh, funny story: When our "Happy Jack" (that's another I forgot--we sing him the Who song) was born, the nurse tried to push me into naming him "J-A-X-S-I-N". Haha stupid twit.)

And thanks! I like him. :)

Seriously, there's nothing cooler than having SIN as a part of your name! :(

two words: michael jackson.
first thing i thought of.
:( although, i guess depending on the kid it could work though.. i mean i could see a long-haired rocker chick who's 17 or something named Jackson being this edgy cowgirl thing/ or maybe a tough girl i dunno but nms

i guess she could have the nickname jax... like apple jax.... or jumping jax... or something. or jackie, which i guess works.
and maybe the city of jackson is a happening place? i have no idea

It's funny, my son has been around (and named) for 19 months now and we've only heard the Michael Jackson thing once or twice. I expected to hear it more often, but I wasn't prepared to give up a name I adored for the sake of other people. :-P

Ug. I'm sorry, but no. I just can't see that on a girl.

I agree with Depeche810. It's so hard to find a good male name because all the good ones are being taken by girls. Nothings sacred anymore:( And once a name goes over to the girls side, there is no turning back.

i love it for a boy, and while i never really thought about it until now, dont really mind it on a girl. if forced, i would actually probably use jackson before madison, on a girl.

I hate Madison. (not enough to use Jackson, but I still hate it.) I'd use it before I'd use Addison, though.

I hate all 'son' names on girls. I mean, did their parents really want a boy or something?

Haha. Jack is sooooooooooo masculine, even without the "son"...

All I can think of is when little kids call her "Miss Jackson" when she gets a bit older and people start singing. :)

Unusual, interesting, and I actually quite like it for a girl.
