I am only 4 months pregnant and I don't know if I'm having a boy or a girl. But in case it's a girl (which I would love) what do you think of the name Mary Jane? I've always loved this name and though I would probably spell it different it's very "old school" This will be our 4th child and yes we are running short on ideas. So please if you have any suggestions - boy or girl - I would love to hear and if not just let me know is Mary Jane still a nice name??

Thanks,
Neily

I personally don't like it because it is a slang for Marijuana. I think that will cause a lot of teasing in middle/high school.

I agree with the previous poster. Mary and Jane separately are both lovely classics, but together they could cause teasing.

I love Mary Jane! It's totally timeless and absolutely adorable on a little girl, while still being respectable for a grown woman.

In a world overrun with Madisyns and Nevaehs, Mary Jane is positively refreshing!!
