FTM: name thoughts?

For a girl, I have picked out:
Jazzlyn Rae - fn came from a girl I saw on tv who had an AMAZING voice, and I thought the name was different. And the mn is my best friend's mn. We have been friends for a long time and I have always told her that if I have a girl, she can have her mn (:

For a boy, I have picked out:
Braden Michael or Braden Andrew? - Braden has always been the name I have wanted for my boy. And Michael is the father's mn. I prefer Braden Andrew, Andrew didn't come from anywhere particular but I think it sounds really good with Braden (:

What do you think?

I like your boy name options.... but Jazzlyn... no, I don't care for that at all. Rae is a nice MN and it's sweet that you have always wanted to name your daughter after your best friend. Are there any other women in your life with good names for a potential FN/

PLEASE don't use Jazzlyn. For the love of God please don't. Jasmine is nice. 

 

I'm so over Braden. It's really overused.

The middle names are nice.  I don't care for the first names.  They scream trendy and Jazzlyn especially will not suit an adult.

Honestly?

I dislike both of them.

Can I make some alternate suggestions? Jasmine Rae and Aidan Michael.

I don't have such a horrible reaction to Jazzlyn as most PP but I would go with Jazlyn or Jazlynn since I think that looks less *unique*. Other similar options:

Jasmine

Jasleen/Jaslene

Jaelyn

But Mae is good! Braden is 'meh' I prefer Brandon or Brendan. Either Michael or Andrew flow well with your choice.

Jazzlyn - really awful.

Jocelyn - a normal name.

 

They sound similar, one is bad, one is OK.

Please tell me this is MUD and isn't real. 

 They are both awful first names.  Jazzlyn screams stripper/low class and Braden is the most overused, unoriginal name on the planet.

YUCK to both.

Jazzlyn is ridiculous. It puts off a very low-class, uneducated vibe. There are PLENTY of names that are different that don't make it sound like her goal in life is to have five kids by the age of twenty. 

 Braden is really overdone. Boring at this point.

Jazzlyn is awful and madeup.  You should go with either Jasime or Jocelyn, as they are real names. 

Braden, while trendy, is at least a real name.  If you love it, you should use it.

Thanks everyone. While I was cringing when I read the replies, it's nice to have some feedback. I really LOVE Jocelyn. I have thought about that as well and I am leaning more towards it thanks to you guys haha
And Braden, I just can't give it up. I love it too much.
