I've been thinking about
Jack quite a bit recently. WDYT? Is
Jack a classic, or is it far too trendy right now? Is it only bearable as a nickname for
John,
Jonathan,
Jacob, etc? Is it too informal by itself?
I think it makes a nice namesake for
John. I could imagine naming a son
Jack after a father named
John. In that case, would you use
John as the formal name and call him
Jack, or just keep the formal name as
Jack?
The combo I like is
Jack Edmund Francis. Do you prefer
John Edmund Francis "
Jack"? What other John/Jack combos can you come up with.
