We have our third child coming in a couple months. DD1 is named Jillian and DS1 is Jett. It was a coincidence that they both started with J but now we feel we should continue with it. We like names that aren't overly popular, prefer that they aren't in the top 100. It's a girl and a couple of names that we thought of are June and Joy. Any suggestions that will go well with our other J names?
-
We have two J boys and and don't like popular names either. Some of our girl names were-
Juniper
Jubilee
Jemma -
I immediately thought January, but that might be a little too non-traditional. Jaclyn? Jenna? Jinger?
-
Jane, Josie
-
DH and I are both J names so we're not gonna name our kids with that letter. But! I love these names:
Joelle
Jolie
Joana
Josie -
My first thought was Jacqueline (ETA or Jaclyn), but I'm it sure if it sounds too similar to Jillian for you. Jocelyn and Josephine are others that came to my mind, but I am a bigger fan of Jacqueline.

Joy Anna
Janelle
Jaime

Jade -
I like Jemma and Joelle. Thanks for the suggestions!

@caterw: I love Julia. It was definitely on our list for #2 but we had a boy!
-
josie, juniper, joelle, joy, jordana, joanna (jo!)
-
Juniper is our girl #2 if she happens name
-
@erinbaderin: I'm voting Jaclyn since that's how my name I should spelt
I've really always loved Jocelyn. Sometimes with the way my name is spelts people pronounce is as ja-S-Lin which I actually love! But I don't know how you would actually spell that. jasclin, Jaclin?

Juliet/ Juliette
Jacqui / Jacqueline

I dont think you need to stick with the J "Them" but at least if you do, I would avoid the "Ji" and "Je" sound. So Juniper at least sounds different enough. Or June/Joy
-
I used to babysit a girl name Jensen and I just heart it
-
@jackiedavis87: I like Jocelyn! Maybe Jasslyn? I think that's cute too.
-
@Mamasmiles: I love that spelling! It even looks cute!

I like Juniper and Josephine. I really like Juliette too but I feel like it's too similar to Jillian.

@LuLu Mom: if we had a girl she would've been Jensen! Love that it's been used before for a girl!
-
Jovie
Jolie
Jaque (jackie)
James (nn Jamie) -
@bluebonnet: I love Julianna with the nickname Jules! Do you think it's too similar to DD1 name of Jillian though?
-
Jasper or Jasperlynn
Josephine
Joanna -
I know a Jordyn and a Joey and I love those names for a girl.
Jessa?
-
@Mamasmiles: I think they are similar, but not tooo similar.
-
@Mamasmiles: I know you didn't ask me, but I do think Julianna and Jillian are too similar. My name is Jillian though so I'm biased! I do think people are more familiar with the name now than they were when I was growing up so maybe they don't confuse it with other names like Julianna. I used to get called Julian a lot, which made me upset since it's a boy name!
