HelpRe: Jack
in reply to a message by Millie
Jack is quite dated, and was ubiquitous in past generations (about as common as just going by John, or Johnny), but it isn't inherently bad. On anyone under 30 I'd expect Jack to be a nickname for Jackson.
Like I said, it isn't inherently bad, but it does give me strong film noir / 1920s detective vibes.

I wouldn't at all expect it to be a nickname for Jackson on anyone under 30. Maybe that's because here in Australia, Jack has been in the top 10 for the last 25 years, but even in the US it has been in the top 100 for nearly as long.
