Ever notice where the name Jack shows up?
Jack O Lantern
Jack and the Bean Stalk
Hit the road Jack
Jack in the Box
Jacks
Car Jacking
Jacked up
I like that name Jack...
If I'd have written Mobey Dick, I'd have started it with the sentence "Call me Jack."
If I was named Jack, people would tell me things like "Go see a doctor, Jack." or "Jack, get to work on your book." or simply "Have a nice day, Jack" and it would seem natural.
It's not like the name James. "James, take me to the club.", "James, find foofy for me." or "Hold me James!" See the difference?
James is a great traditional family name. But, I really like Jack.
