Full Names for Jette

Image Credit
Jette's a pretty cool nickname. But she definitely is a nickname. Even I, the queen of using nicknames as full names, think that Jette needs a longer form. Everyone's favorite baby name vlogger Stephanie named her daughter Juliette (called Jette) back in 2013, and since then I've been hearing quite a lot about Jette. But maybe Juliette's not your style. That's okay, because there are plenty of other choices when it comes to the nickname Jette.

Expected:
Jeanette- Definitely dated, but with the nickname Jette, it can be a nice (yet still fashionable) way to honor your relatives.
Juliette- Romantic and sweet, with a hint of princess.

Unique:
Georgette- She's not quite ready for a comeback, but I have a feeling Georgette could be rather cute if called Georgie or Jette.
Jetta- I talked about Jetta in last weeks post about J names for girls. She's the most straightforward way to get to Jette, but doesn't need to be shortened.

Unheard of:
Josette- She lends herself to Josie, but if you want something a little more rough-and-tumble, Jette is your girl.
Junette- If you're desperate for a name that honors Grandma June and has a nickname like Jette, I say go for it. Otherwise, there are better choices on this list.

10 J Names You Never Thought of Using: Girls

Finally, no more I names. J is an easy letter to work with, there are so many names that begin with it. If you're looking for something a little more offbeat, I suggest you try this list. We've got an interesting group today.

Jacinta- Pronounced with an H sound as opposed to a J, Jacinta is the Spanish word for hyacinth.

Jalila- A cute and unique way to get to the nickname Lila.

Janna- You could pronounce her (YAH-nuh) or (JAN-uh), but if you choose the former be prepared for some confusion. If you happen to like that pronunciation, Iana gets the point across more clearly.

Jean- I get it, she seems dated. But if everyone's going gaga over Jane, it's not unreasonable to think Jean would be the next step. It feels refreshing on a baby girl.

Jemsa- She sounds very British to my ear. Half Gemma, half Elsa, how can you go wrong?

Jetta- Jette is pretty stylish as a nickname, but if you don't like Juliette, what are you to do? Jetta sounds a bit more tough but can still be called Jette, so it's perfect.

Jocasta- She's one of the few Jo- names that sounds super fresh. Perfect for honoring Aunt Joanna or Grandma Joan.

Joss- Yes, Joss can be a girl name, too. You could use her as a nickname for Jocelyn, but I'm also fond of her by herself.

Jules- Much spunkier than Julia or Juliet.

July- July has been snubbed as a month name. She's fun, quirky, and perfect for any time of the year.
