It's alright - I'm accustomed to it as a name, so it's a normal-eccentric name like Rebel or Athena. I don't think it's so different or oddly spelled that it would be hard to go through life. Michaela would probably be harder. I think it could give a lot of people an impression of a certain demographic origin - although my own idea about that is really vague. I'm just aware of the word having religious connotations. But the impression isn't so strong that I'd make assumptions, even that the bearer was religious at all. In my religion-less (religion-free?) life I've heard the word jubilee mentioned more often in the context of price specials and secular events than I have heard it in a religious sense.

Personally I don't care for the JOOB sound, or the hyper-happy connotation I get from it. It's similar to Felicity that way - not as bad. Anyway overall I think it does sound namey and nice, and I think it's decent.
