what's in a name

I was going to try and keep it a secret, but I hate secrets. So... we have decided on a name for the little man, Jackson Arthur Farris. Unless, he just doesn't look the part. For example - he is a she. But he is not camera shy about his man parts so I think we are safe.
Jackson has been a favorite of mine for a long time and it is my grandmother's maiden name. Arthur is both of our grandfather's middle names.
The only other final name contender was Jacob/Jake. This guy came along and helped rule out that name. There is one more, but I am really keeping it a secret just in case we have a house full of boys one day. :)

A few nicknames will include -
Jack
Jack-Sprat
Cracker-Jack
Jack-in-the-box
J-mania
Jackie-Chan-Man
J-$
Run DMJ
Snoop D-O-double-J

Feel free to add to the list.
