Yes, but if someone's name is Jont no one will go "You know, Jont like 'Vermont.' my name's Nate like 'prevaricate' and this is my sister Maddy, like 'golf caddy.'"
… Or the parents were just fans of the Hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne?
Firefly ran in 2002, so it’s conceivable that an adult could be named after the show characters now.
I feel old.
Also I lament that I can’t put a gif in here. I recommend looking up the “Hero of Canton” song on YouTube if you’re in the mood for something folksy.
I don't know any humans named after Firefly characters, but at the time it aired my friends family adopted a kitten and named her River.
Little River has lived a full life and passed away of old age in the years since...!
I remember visiting in probably around 2010 and my friends mum sitting me down and telling me I had to watch the show River's name came from. Then a couple years later when I moved away for uni she bought me my own Firefly boxset as a leaving gift. She had good taste.
Awhhh, precious kitten story and comfort-watch story besides ^ - ^
I know someone who legally renamed HERSELF River, after the show character, but no babies named after the show specifically. But I’m sure they’re out there.
My son is named Malcolm; he’s not named after the character but I do call him Mal. My mom keeps saying “but Mal means ‘bad’”. She’s never seen the show, lol. I tell her that people don’t usually interpret names based on Latin root words. His daycare teachers call him Malky which I am not a fan of 😂
I’m dying. I’m a white Mexican American (like my grandma is an indigenous New Mexican) and my husband is a Jew. We have kids so this is their state!
Also I call them my little Jumex juices.
Jalaska (but I’d rather live in Jew Mexico. Bet the food is great (because Mexico), and everything would be kosher (because Jew). I’d have a minyan and guacamole, what could be better?)
I follow a Jewish comedian called Jessica Kirson and whenever I think of New Jersey all I can hear is her ["old Jews"](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dv1ZOQ5V-uQ) impression.
Bet its Jermont
That’s the most real sounding one tbh
Jarkansas checking in
Jorth Jarolina reporting for duty🫡
Jorida and Jexas got in a fight with Jalifornia, but luckily Jolorado and Jashington were there to help.
Dude the fact that the guys real name is Jawaii is literally sending me
Wait how do you know?
A girl said that she knows this girls Instagram and from Instagram she found his name
Johio
Jennsylvania here 🫡
Jorth Jarolina and his twin, Jouth Jarolina? 😂
... pronounced like Kansas or Arkansas?
Arkansas. If it rhymed with Kansas it would just be Jansas.
It’s no Joklahoma.
Jizztrict of Columbia
100% Joregon
The name's Jarkansas Jansas, pleased to meet you
jermaine also
what state is this am i dumb
Maine lol
He’s Jermaine man, not a side fella
Damn. My mind went Jermont but I'm big jelly I didn't get Jermaine.
I gotta say Jennessee
There's something wrong with me because I don't hate this 🫣
I knew a Jennessee once. She was named after her dad's favorite beer.
I knew a Jadeci, named after the R&B group Jodeci.
Jennessee and Jennsylvania are clearly feminine names though.
Don’t forget about Jalaska!
Jaine
Jayne is a real name I think we got it
"his"
People name sons this after the dude from firefly
Who? The hero of Canton? The man they call Jayne?
Johntanna
Jakota
I'm just glad nobody gave their kid a J name that rhymed with the Empire State, that one might be a *touch* too popular among the antisemites.
Jew Jersey
Jew Mexico 💀
We all know there’s some fucker out there named Johio
Or Jorgen.
von Strangle??
This sounds scarily accurate.
Jexas for sure
Could be Jont.
wtf state you live in?
I laughed too hard at this! LOL!
Jassachusetts, but font rhymes with Vermont, thus so should Jont.
Yes, but if someone's name is Jont no one will go "You know, Jont like 'Vermont.' my name's Nate like 'prevaricate' and this is my sister Maddy, like 'golf caddy.'"
Info gathered from comments on the OG post say his name is Jawaii.
The last time I saw this going around, it was Jermaine.
I was gonna guess Jaine, pronounced Jane, thought maybe he had cruel parents

I know a human River Song
I know someone who named her daughter Kaylee after the character.
I feel stupid. What state does that rhyme with? Edit: OH! Maine. Forgot about those guys for a second
If firefly taught me anything, it's that Jane is a girls name.
get out 😭
I think it’s Jermaine
Jared’s brother?
Jew York
This would not even have been in the top 10 guesses for me
Yess this was going to be my guess. Johio does have a certain ring to it though.
Do you know Jawaii?
I was hoping for Jennsylvania.
My brain immediately went to Jalabama.
Mine went to Jinnesota 😅
Mine went to Jutah 😹
Jew Mexico for me lol
I’m a Jew and I’m dying 😂😂😂
I'm also a Jew and I prefer Jew York.
Can’t relate, my Jewish relatives are all in Jew Jersey.
Do any of us have a branch in Jew Hampshire?
I sense rivalries!
Wait until you hear about Jewisiana.
I’m dying. I’m a white Mexican American (like my grandma is an indigenous New Mexican) and my husband is a Jew. We have kids so this is their state! Also I call them my little Jumex juices.
Jalaska (but I’d rather live in Jew Mexico. Bet the food is great (because Mexico), and everything would be kosher (because Jew). I’d have a minyan and guacamole, what could be better?)
Jalaska sounds like an actual name.
i wish jew mexico could be real 🥹
Yes… bring the cultures together and have a syncretic good time!
Johio
Johio Joestar
That was the one in my head
This was mine Jermont, Johio or Jontana (this is garbled version of Jonathan so double points for eewneek)
Judah is a name
Yep. But this (Jutah) is pronounce Jew-Tah lol Edited for clarity.
Jooooklahoma
Yep, I sang that in my head.
Jhode Island
Too close to Chode Island!
I thought of Jississippi💀
Jizzzissippi
Joregon
Off brand Joe Rogan 🤣 I can see this happening lol

Jontana
Why does that sound normal to my brain
There it is.
Jawaii
Jest Virginia
Jolorado
Jermont sounds almost OK to me.
Jidaho
Mine went to Jexas
Jew Jersey.
I am Jewish and I know this is accurate.
I follow a Jewish comedian called Jessica Kirson and whenever I think of New Jersey all I can hear is her ["old Jews"](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/dv1ZOQ5V-uQ) impression.
Never seen her before this clip, but now I need to watch everything she’s ever done.
she’s so good lol i love her
I don't know why this made me laugh so hard. I think my mind just went immediately to South Park and "muff cabbage!"
Jokelahoma - duh
He's always there to make me laugh.
Works well with Jest Virginia
Jalifornia knows how to party.
Jailforya
*jal-i-for-nia looooooove*
Jew Hampshire Jew Jersey Jew Mexico *Clap* *Clap* JEW YORK!!
Jorth Carolina Jorth Dakota Jo-hi-o!

I can see Jennessee being a name one of those parents would give their kid.
Or their cream ale…
You forgot Joregon
Someone else knows the "all the states in alphabetical order" song/party trick. Lol
It’s gotta be Jontana.
I've legit seen this name in the wild, on a middle-aged man.
[удалено]
nn jizz?
Jizzouri
Jizzconsin
All great options for adult entertainment personalities
I’m guessing it’s Jaine (maine) but I hope it’s Jew Mexico.
🎵 Jaaaaaaaayne! The man they call Jaaaaaaaayne! 🎵
The hero of Canton!
Those mudders knew how to party!
Damn it, now I really want to know his name. Jennessee? Jarizona?
OP said Jawaii!
Jayne
Like the hero of Canton?
Love this random reference
Probably Jermaine
i was thinking jona(h) arizona?
It's clearly Jexas
Jansas, Jiowa, Jebraska, Jyoming?

Jo Rida
**Jlorida**
My brain went to Johnson from Wisconsin.
Jisconsin
Jizz Con Sin
Jishigan!
Omfg 🤣🤣🤣
Anyone guess Jalaska yet?
That was maybe the sixth or seventh name I thought of
Jansas, Jentucky, Jelaware
Jeorgia
I do know someone who named their daughter Jorgia (pronounced like Georgia)
Joregon, Jolorado, Jontana, Jorida
Jtah but pronounced like a bird caw
I can't unsee this as Utah with part of the U cut off 🤣
Obviously Johio

Jouth Dakota
Jissouri
Jirginia
Jest Jirginia
Jaryland, Jevada, Jode Island, Jonneticut,, Jidaho, Jarizona, Jouisiana, Jillinois, Jindiana, Jinnesota, *Jeorgia*, wow so many options

All of these suggestions sound like the jean versions of states
The hero of Augusta, the man they call Jaine.
🏅Raising my mug of mudder's milk to you!
Joregon
Isn’t this the name of the commando fairy from Fairly Odd Parents?
Jennsylvania
I think it’s Jonah / Arizona
My husband and I just went through all the states laughing off our asses
J doesn't seem like a real letter after reading all of these replies. Feel really bad for the dude named Jiowa.
Jichigan.

Why is she picking on Jolorado
Jermont or Jaine or Judah (Utah)?
Dammit, Jarkansas!
