You would find my son's name annoying then. I named my son "Jayson". The spelling was intentional, because hubby's name is Jay. Hubby wanted to name him Jay Jr. but I put my foot down. Didn't want to have to call him Junior to differentiate him from hubby. We live in So Cal, where most of the Latino population have a "Junior" at home. Jayson was the compromise, and I find it unique and not annoying. Most people have told me they like it. My son is just annoyed that he can never find mugs, keychains etc Jayson spelled OUR way.
Niel, If you and your husband have found a name that you both love I'd use the name and not care what others say or think, Agreeing on a name isn't as easy as it would seem. My husband and I had a hard time agreeing on a name for our dog. I can only imagine what naming a child would have been like.
If you choose to pick an unusual spelling I agree with what Jaysonsmom said above. I remember quite a few times my niece being in tears because we couldn't find a mug or keychain with the correct spelling of her name.
I will never understand people who feel the need to tell expectant parents they do not like the name they have chosen.
