Jack vs. Still popular vs. Not Popular

I was just wondering if you still think Jack is still a popular name or do you think it has gone down in popularity? We are thinking of using this name for our son but we don't really want to use a name where he might have 3 or more Jack's in his class. Similar suggestions welcome of not so popular names. Thank you!

The Top Baby Name is...

Jack

6%

Still popular

50%

Not Popular

It ranked 15th in the United States in 2022. That being said I don't know anyone in my child's school named Jack

If you're in the US, Jack is still popular but trending downwards (No# 15 in 2022 = 8,889
No# 11 in 2021 = 9,548).

Alternatives to Jack: John nn Jack, Jude, Jake, Shane, Quinn, Luke, Jackson, Clark, Sam, Ben, Max, Beau, Liam, Dean, Blake, Grant, Reid, Finn, Leo, Mark, Noel, Rhys

If you are worried about popularity where you live, go to the Social Security Administration website (SSA) type in "Baby Names" and you should be able to view Jack's popularity by state.

I wouldn't use it.

I recommend the same advice of actually checking your state's popularity. Where I am, a name that isn't top 20 is in the top 20 for my specific state. It's all regional. There may be a bunch of little baby Jack's in California, but not Ohio. If you get my drift

I know 7 Jacks under the age of 5! Ugh! Personally I extremely dislike the name. I have never seen the appeal in this name in looks or sound plus to top it off all the sexual comments that can be made from the name. No thanks. I find it the most bland, boring and most annoying name. I always dread when I heard yet another Jack. As well as, any older Jacks I have run into all have been awful people or people I just dont like so that doesnt help my strong hatred for the name.
