I think it’s a stretch but [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] could work.
Have you thought about [name_f]Geneva[/name_f]?
I think it could work, though you might get some strange looks. I would suggest…
[name_f]Georgina[/name_f]
[name_f]Eugenie[/name_f]
[name_f]Eugenia[/name_f]
[name_f]Ginger[/name_f]
[name_f]Regina[/name_f]
[name_f]Iphigenia[/name_f]
[name_f]Jeanine[/name_f]
[name_u]Genesis[/name_u]
[name_f]Geneva[/name_f]
oops, I voted for ‘No, too much of a stretch’ because I read it as ‘not too much of a stretch’. I definitely think it could work
I love [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f], and it’s my favourite full name for [name_f]Ginny[/name_f]. I’m not really a fan of any other full names for [name_f]Ginny[/name_f]. I definitely don’t think it’s too much of a stretch.
I think [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] “[name_f]Ginny[/name_f]” works. I also feel you could definitely use [name_f]Ginny[/name_f] as a full name.
You might get some weird looks, but I still think it could work. [name_f]My[/name_f] favorite nn for [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] is [name_f]Vera[/name_f].
It’s a bit of a stretch, but it could work. I pronounce [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] as gwen-uh-veer but I’ve heard it pronounced gwin-uh-veer which would make [name_f]Ginny[/name_f] more intuitive. Though I’m not a fan of [name_f]Ginny[/name_f] myself; I prefer the full name or [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] if I were to use a nickname. @[name_f]Erin[/name_f]- [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] nn [name_f]Vera[/name_f] is so clever!
I think [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f] works just fine.
I assume you’ve heard these as well, but I think these would work as well:
[name_f]Eugenia[/name_f], [name_f]Regina[/name_f], [name_f]Ephigenia[/name_f]/[name_f]Ifigenia[/name_f] and [name_u]Genesis[/name_u]/[name_f]Genessie[/name_f].
I think it definitely works. I love the nickname [name_f]Ginny[/name_f], though I really don’t like [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f].
I like [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f], I absolutely love [name_f]Ginny[/name_f] and I think it works superbly as a nickname.
The first other suggestion that came to mind was [name_u]Genesis[/name_u].
