LOVE IT! If girls can be named Madison, then boys can be named Jefferson! It's a good substitute for the name Jeffrey too.

I have never met anyone with this name. Tony Randall named his son this name. I think it is a good substitute for Jackson, which is increasingly used.

Both Jefferson & Jackson, sound great as first names, the first name Jefferson will forever be associated with the character of Jefferson D'Arcy , the best friend of Al Bundy on the Hit Fox Sitcom "Married... with Children"
