According to [Blogging Baby](http://fridayfaqs.bloggingbaby.com/2007/02/06/exclusive-michelle-duggar-is-pregnant/), Michelle Dugger and her husband Jim Bob are expecting baby #17 at the end of July. Opinions about the sanity of said move are for another thread, okay? Here’s a list of the existing kids’ names: Joshua, John David, Janna, Jill, Jessa, Jinger, Joseph, Josiah, Joy-Anna, Jeremiah, Jedidiah, Jason, James, Justin, Jackson Levi, and Johannah Clearly the baby will have a J name just like all his/her siblings. For this pool pick a boy and girl J name, and we’ll check back in July to see if anyone wins. My picks Girl: Jade Boy: Jeorge ---

Wouldn’t it be too funny if they named it Bob? I like your boy’s name suggestion, it would go with “Jinger!” My picks: Girl: Jessica Boy: Jeffrey ---

Does anyone else see “Jinger” and think it must rhyme with “stinger”? I’m guessing it some stupid alternate spelling of “Ginger” but I keep reading it as Jinger-rhymes with-stinger. ---

Looks like they’re partial to biblical names. Maybe they could name the baby Jesus or Judas or even Jehosephat if it’s a boy. For a girl I’d go with Julia (which is my given name) or Judith ---

[/QUOTE] Yes, and I hate it. I mean, it’s not like there aren’t plenty of perfectly good girls’ names out there that start with “J.” The other thing that drives me nuts about their kids’ names is that Joy-Anna and Johannah are so similar. Janna’s pretty close too. ---
