and yes, Jupiter Jones is a pretty cool character!

Please, please call him Jupiter after birth! I couldn't convince my husband to name our twins Jupiter (boy) and Indiana (girl) as in Jupe and Indi, get to the table!.

A second Jonas vote here. My son is named Jonas. So obviously I like the name.

Like the Jonas Brothers? Sorry, not being snide, i just have never heard it in any other context.

Uh, the Bible. Or the Weezer song.

Yeah, because everyone has read the bible

We named my son John but call him Jack. He does not even know that his real name is John - which was named after a grandfather.

Jameson

Jonah

Jones

Juels

Jesse

Jonathan

FWIW, I used to babysit a kid named John Watson Smith. His parents called him John Watson. So maybe if you went with a more traditional first name you could get creative with the middle name?

I'm the one with the son named Jonas. He was named Jonas before the Jonas Brother's were popular. Besides, I'm sure they'll be long gone in 20 years. We picked Jonas as we were looking for a J name (husband is Jewish and he wanted to honor a relative). We were choosing between Jonah and Jonas. We went with Jonas. One of the smartest persons my husband knows is a Jonas. There's a well known Jonas in the scientific community - Jonas Salk was a medical researcher best known for discovery and development of the polio vaccine.

I've actually met 2 other Jonas's since naming my son. Its also on the rise in popularity on the Social Security's names database. Its 2008 rank was 274.

And yes, there is a mention of the name Jonas in a Weezer song. And yes, the information above is probably much more than you ever wanted to know about the name Jonas.
