Name that fits with Jason

Our little boy is named Jason, and we're looking for a cute (English) name starting with J. We were thinking of Justin for a boy and Jillian for a girl. What do you think? Do they go well together? Other ideas are always welcome too!

    I think they go really well together! A few more suggestions:
    Boy: James, Jacob, Jack
    Girl: Julia, Jill, Jodie, Jess/Jessy

    Just keep in mind that not everyone sees Jason as an English name? It comes from Greek (Jason and the Golden Fleece) and the Dutch pronunciation is 'Jaa-son'.
    Justin is also not an English name, but comes from the Roman emperor Justinian.
    That said, the combination Jason and Justin is quite nice. For a girl's name, I'd go more for Jane.

    It should mainly be easy to pronounce in English (so it can originally come from somewhere else). And preferably, it should have a pronunciation that makes sense to almost everyone. For example, Julian can be pronounced both in Dutch and English, which we think could cause confusion. We're often abroad, after all.

    For a boy, maybe Joshua, Joe, or Jack? And for a girl, Jessica, Jenna, or Jennifer?
    Jordan is also nice, works for both.

    In that case, I'd go for Jack or Jenna.
