It always makes me think of the time when I was a child and I asked my mother about my brother's name. His name was John nn Johnny. I asked her, "Mommy, is Johnny's name really Jonathan?" And she said, "No, of course not! I hate that name!"

So there was one negative opinion, lol. I actually like it more than I like John, it's got more character and is more interesting, IMO. The only Jonathan I've known is called Jon and does not want to be called Jonathan. I think it's worth bearing in mind that many Jonathans must be called Jon which sounds just like boring (to me) old John.
