All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!

It is just a personal gut reaction but both those are "ick" names for boys for me personally. (a lot of people love them though)
If you name your child either of those he'll be changing his name to "Michael" by middle school.
We have a kid at our school who doesn't like his given name and wants to change it to "Jake."
That's a nice "J" name for a boy. How about Jake? Jacob Michael, aka "Jake." He can even be "Jakey" as a toddler which sounded rakish in this Swiss Family Robinson Movie I just watched.
Please give this decision more thought.
Ick factor. (apologies if they belong to some heirloom relative)
If I were a boy I wouldn't want those names. If you do go with one of those, be sure to have an unrelated nickname handy.
I'm not trying to be mean I just truly would not want those names on a boy.

99.999% of those this child grows up with would not know wtf "Hey Jude" is anyway so that would not be an issue Miyagi
So not true.
I mean, yes, if it were a hit by Bananarama.
Judes and Juliens don't conjure up a manly image. Okay, how many guys on this board would like having either of those names? Be honest.
I feel like we have to save this kid from his parents before he tries to get his birth certificate altered!
Plus it's only a matter of time before someone starts chanting "Julia" on the playground. You can't do that with Michael or Jake.

honestly.....NOBODY cares what you think. Thank you. And what you said...as usual...makes no sense
You're nuts. It doesn't matter that it's ME that's thinking it -- I'm the only one who has bothered to say what probably a lot of others are thinking. And have hinted at. It makes a LOT of sense.
I understand how parents go in a particular direction with names and get all taken with something or other, but don't think through the ramifications, or even how others may react to it.
My parents wanted to name my sister "Rita." To this day she feels she dodged a major bullet.
Or, are you suggesting "you" would like the name Julien or Jude for yourself or a kid of yours? Doubtful!

Yes, but there will always be other kids with that name, so you can't be singled out.
For Julien/Jude, "The Cheese Stands Alone."
