I never understand this "not actually a name" argument. If your name is Jax, then Jax is actually a name. And the fact is that there are people whose name is Jax. It was ranked #223 in 2013. Javier was #222; Myles was #224.[/quote]

It's not even in the SSA database prior to 2005.

Sons of Anarchy debuted in 2008. It's a nickname of a fictional character, and has grown in popularity since then. But it's not actually a name. It doesn't mean anything except "nickname for a fictional character on the television show Sons of Anarchy."[/quote]

So your definition of a name is "something that means something"? Do you consider Apple a name? How about Comfort or Delight -- are those names? How about John -- what does that mean?[/quote]

Well, Apple definitely means something -- it's a fruit. Comfort and Delight have definitions as well, although, no, I don't consider them "names."

[b]John is Biblical. It means Grace or Mercy of the Lord.[/b]

Jax isn't anything. Except maybe a misspelling of the toy you pick up when you bounce a little rubber ball.[/quote]

You looked that up on the Internet. Plus actually "John", the name in English, doesn't mean that.

And if Comfort and Delight mean something but still aren't names (even though I know people whose names are Comfort and Delight), then please explain to me, what makes something a name?[/quote]
