Hi, there,

Anyone out there can suggest a name for baptising if the boy's given name is Jackson? By the way, is "Jason" the short form of "Jackson"?

Thanks,

How about Jacob? It would be Biblical. Jason would also work and also be Biblical, but I don't think that it's the shortened form of Jackson.

Hey Guy, Thanks a lot. Other suggestions are still welcome.

Hey, you're welcome! :)

Here are some other Biblical names for males that also begin with the letter "J". Although, they most likely didn't begin with that letter in the Bible centuries ago, but are generally excepted today as okay to have originated in the Bible, if one is wanting some sort of name associated with a person's baptism as being of Biblical origin.

Jorden
Jordan
Joshua
Judah
Joel
Jonathan
Joseph

Hopefully, others will also come along to respond to your question!

Thanks again, you are very resourceful.

You're welcome again!

In my opinion, I would go with Jacob because it's close to Jackson in the sound of it.

But, I am still hopeful that there will be other opinions concerning this matter!

If you are interested, I suggest looking into some Christians who came before your son and lived lives of heroic virtue: Saints Index - J (http://www.catholic.org/saints/stindex.php?lst=J)

:D

Scott, thanks, thanks.
