Baby Names
Help and opinions requested! Little brother for Warre.
We've been looking for a few months now and keep coming back to the name Jobbe. We both think it's a beautiful name, but we have our doubts for two reasons: it's harder to pronounce and is it really a name that fits an adult man?
What do you think?

Hi...
How do you guys look for/choose a name? I've never heard of the name Jobbe before!
Greetings, Eline.. -

If you think it's a nice name, that's good, and you shouldn't let others get to you too much. It's a name you don't hear often, but that's exactly the point! And I think it fits well together.
An acquaintance of mine has a son named Ebbe, and I think that fits well too!
Greetings and good luck with deciding. -

Torre then?
The singer of a Dutch rock band is called that; Torre Florim (the band is called: De Staat) -

Jobbe, that's nice!
Or Jappe is also very nice! -

Glad to hear you both think the name is nice! I'm really worried that he'd be made fun of at school and stuff later on!!!
@ eline24: Someone I used to study with also has a son named 'Jobbe'. I don't keep in touch with her anymore, so I won't look into it. Otherwise, it's not a very common name. Other ways we use to look for names: internet (e.g., the 'Kind en Gezin' site); books from the library; TV -> looking at actors and such who appear in movies and stuff; ...). -

Does anyone have a specific opinion about the name? We'd love to hear it... -

Dear Warre's mom,
I think Jobbe is a really nice, friendly-sounding, and original name.
I'd definitely go for it...
At least I don't think it's a name that would get him teased right away...
(Unless I'm missing something?)....
Anyway, good luck with your decision.
