Most Popular J Names Quiz

And no Jennifer as well. Surprising.

Not really. Those names were popular in the 80s, not anymore.

Jessie too!

Jayden is pretty popular on that side of the pond huh? Quite honestly never have I met anyone with that name in my life, and I'm 32 next month.

smartcookie17 --Jayden Smith is an actor. Son of Will Smith.

He's some dude on Google.com or you could wait 1 year for an answer here. Check back if you remember.

Yeah, and they're all from the Mount Druitt-like areas, no doubt.

If you don't know any Jaydens, you don't know very many kids under 12.

That makes you guys nothing special, sorry.

If anyone guessed mine, they're just plain stupid.

Haha, I started typing all of the Duggar's names !!

Im surprised Jessica and Jennifer arent there.. I feel like I know a lot, actually too many, people who those names

Kal is right - those names were immensely popular a couple decades back, but no so much now. They were SO common at one point, I would guess that parents actively avoid such names now (of course, they'll naturally migrate to other names that will ultimately become overly common).

whatever happened to her...

It's names of babies born in 2012 and those are not very popular baby names anymore..

how are Jennifer and Jessica not among the most popular J names? LOL, i've never been anywhere and not run into another Jennifer.

Yeah but all those Jennifers and Jessicas must be in their thirties. Nobody gives those names to their babies now.

Ummm, I know 3 Jessica's and two Jennifer's and they are in year 5/6 so...

So you speak for everyone then? OK lol

That OK lol really sealed the deal.

I feel sorry for abides named jordyn Jesus justin jayden jocelyn. Wild names over the pond

Yeah, justin is definitely not wild. It's not particularly common (compared to names like jack, jason, james for example) but it doesn't sound unusual

Oh my goodness, why on earth would it be offensive to anybody, especially Christians? Should Mary also be "banned" or all of the Biblical Patriarchs in the name of political correctness? It would leave quite a large hole in the naming process. Jesus was a name used long before Christ. Would it be better to retire the name like its Michael Jordan's jersey and forget about it or to continue to use it and remember?

My goodness, have you never met anyone of Latino descent? And it's a very common name in English too, translated as Joshua.

And people called mary is/are not offending?

Senator, you're obviously no Jack Kennedy.

Fillmore, Hoover, Bush and Pierce would be nice.

How the feck is Josiah a name?

It's from the Bible. He was a king.

Surprised to see no Jessica. Here in the UK it's been a very popular girls' name for quite a few years.

Wittiest clues. Crazy I didn't get Josiah or Jameson — both meaningful to me. But wait a second, people actually name their kid Jameson? This, I have not witnessed.

If people can name the date of conception, it must be a rare event in their relationship!

That is hysterical. Were they from East Prairie or Miner?

Maybe Jermany for Jeremy then.

Kept trying "Janis" for Whiskey. Janis Joplin was a big consumer.

It's Joycelyn Elders.

Jonathan is NOT an alternate of John. John and Jonathan are two completely different names with different meanings and spellings.

So did your source divide the names by gender, or did you? Because I was sure than not only had Jordan very firmly crossed over into unisex territory, but had kept right on going and was now much more commonly a female name.

For once, the picture clue didn't give me one of the answers! Several of the clues like $20 and Hey Zues! weren't much very helpful for someone not from the US.

Jesus isn't a U.S. name.

Nonsense. Of course it's a US name. Unless you consider the 56 million+ Latinos who live here (and who favor that name) to not be part of the US.

Awesome quiz; loved the clues and the color-coding.

Very funny jonnhy bro.👎👉🏽✌🏽😲

Genuinely surprised Judah wasn't on here. I was sure that name was getting really popular these days...guess not.

Johnnie Walker would also work as the whiskey.

Or Glenn Fiddich ... ow wait ... no J, but who cares after all that whisky :D

(and whiskey)

When I saw Zeus I immediately thought of Jupiter and I must admit I was relieved when it wasn’t there! I mean, people are naming their kids everything these days, so I figured I’d just put it in and see.

I tried jupiter too. I think Zeus would be something used for a name sooner than jupiter. (Not sure why, maybe cause it is also the name of a planet, or because zeus sounds more powerfull, or names with z are popular nowadays. Or all of the above)

Colour-coded by gender? What's the 3rd gender then?! :-P

(you have a different colour for the female names in each column)

unisex i guess, I can see jordan both as male an female. Jayden to me looks male, but any name can turn unisex, it simply has to be used often enough for the other sexe.

I'd be interested to see all the unisex names in the world (and not the few exceptions, it should be names that are used regularly like that) also the ones that are masculine in one country and feminine in another.
