Re: Jade
in reply to a message by Lily
My name is Jade and I absolutely love it. Older people tend to comment on how uncommon it is, younger people tend to comment on how "cool" it is. Some people like to comment on how it's a stripper name, and I like to ignore them. I know three other female Jades around my age (early 20s) and one male Jade. The only younger Jade I know is 7. The rest seem to be Jadens (or some variant of that spelling). I used to not like my name because I felt it was too plain, but now I absolutely love it and think it fits me. Its unusual without being over the top and a very solid girls name. Even though its a gem, there really isn't anything frilly about Jade. The only issue is that it gets missunderstood for Jane, Kate, and Paige quite often.
