Jan šŸˆ

Soā€¦ do we think Jan could ever make a comeback? If soā€¦ in what form would you like to see her come back? Janelle? Janet? Janice? January? Maybe just Jan?

Thoughts?

Iā€™ve met a couple of teenage Franā€™s, so I donā€™t see why the similar sounding [name_u]Jan[/name_u] couldnā€™t come back as well! I could see [name_f]Janet[/name_f] eventually coming back, too, for itā€™s generally cool sound and look.

I could see it coming back. [name_f]Jana[/name_f] and [name_u]January[/name_u] donā€™t feel dated or out of style at all. Out of the other options, [name_f]Janelle[/name_f] feels the most likely to catch on first since elle is such a trendy sound right now, but [name_f]Janet[/name_f] with its popular -et(te) ending or maybe even [name_f]Janice[/name_f] could eventually have a revival as well.

@Sophie_M @sammaegre i totally agree with you both about Janet. I never realized how cool of a name this actually is?? Itā€™s super punchy! I just know so many old ladies with the name that I never saw it in that way! But i really like it a lot.

I really hope it does! Itā€™s just so dang cute, and the Janā€™s Iā€™ve my throughout my life were everything this name feels to me- smart, sassy, and strong. :mushroom:

I could see [name_u]Janis[/name_u] coming back with the rise of hippie names, because of [name_u]Janis[/name_u] [name_f]Joplin[/name_f]. I would actually consider naming my own little girl this though [name_f]Joplin[/name_f] is more my usual style! :peace_symbol:

I think it could definitely come back. [name_f]My[/name_f] grandma is [name_f]Janet[/name_f], I met a nurse named [name_f]Janelle[/name_f], and Iā€™ve seen babies named [name_f]Janelle[/name_f]. [name_f]Janelle[/name_f] would probably be the first to come back.

[name_f]Janelle[/name_f] was also going to be my middle name if I was a girl

I love [name_u]January[/name_u], [name_f]Jane[/name_f] & [name_u]Janis[/name_u]
I know too many old Janets still that Iā€™m just not ready for itā€™s comeback yet

[name_u]January[/name_u] nn [name_u]Jan[/name_u] is absolutely my favorite! The others feel frumpy and unexciting, to me.

I kind of like [name_u]Jan[/name_u] - something short and cool about it. I quite like [name_u]Jan[/name_u] on itā€™s own :woman_shrugging:t3: [name_f]Janelle[/name_f] feels like it could come back, maybe [name_u]January[/name_u]?

I love [name_u]January[/name_u] :snowflake:

I also really like [name_f]Janet[/name_f] partly because sheā€™s a family name and just feels so sentimental to me but I also love the vintage vibe sheā€™s wholesome.

I can see a January, Janelle or Janis nn Jan for sure. Iā€™m not quite ā€˜thereā€™ with Janet because thatā€™s my middle aged aunt who plays golf, but objectively I can see thereā€™s nothing wrong with it :see_no_evil::laughing:

I think it could make a comeback, especially with [name_f]Dot[/name_f] and [name_u]Fran[/name_u] / [name_f]Frances[/name_f] gaining some popularity!

As for full names, I really like [name_f]Jane[/name_f], [name_u]January[/name_u] and I think [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] could also be shortened to [name_u]Jan[/name_u] easily!

I love [name_u]Jan[/name_u] and all her long forms!!! I really hope that one day [name_f]Janelle[/name_f], [name_f]Janet[/name_f], [name_f]Janette[/name_f], [name_f]Janice[/name_f], [name_f]Janine[/name_f], [name_f]Janiya[/name_f] etc can all come back!

Iā€™m loving this feedback!! Makes me feel hopeful for Jan :pray:t2::smile:

I think [name_u]Janis[/name_u], [name_u]January[/name_u] or [name_f]Janna[/name_f] could feel fresh!

Janna is wayyyy cute!

I retract this statement as Iā€™ve just listened to Midnights and Janet makes an appearance so thatā€™s it, sheā€™ll definitely come back now!
