A girl from high school is five months preggers and recently shared the name:

Jason and Jade are welcoming baby boy Jude Christian.

Jade is actually her middle name, but few people know that (first name is Stephanie).

I don't really like the name all that much, but considering she's 22, I'm impressed with the normalcy and timelessness of the choice. Although "Jade and Jude" are a bit too close.

And as usual, I really hope any future babies have names that DON'T start with J...

I like the name ok but I just can't with matchy matchy names. Obviously, it doesn't apply to the parents because they had no control over that. So if that were me, I would specifically AVOID names that start with that j sound. Instead, they went as matchy as possible for girl to boy, only changing the vowel sound. So, yeah, this name for this family would be out if it were me. And now they've really set themselves up because if the next kid isn't j-, then he/she will be left out, but if it is j- then this whole family is going to be soooooo matchy matchy. The d sound at the end is particularily difficult because that d sound is actually a part of the j sound. Say it - Jason, Jade, Jude. It sounds like "Jay Jude"

ugh.
