Thoughts on the name Jenny

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone!! I’m not how I feel about [name_f]Jenny[/name_f] what do u all think?

I think [name_f]Jenny[/name_f] is super sweet! :slight_smile:

Is really cute and refreshing, but I think I slightly prefer it as a nn to [name_f]Jenna[/name_f].

[name_f]Jenny[/name_f] from Call the Midwife made me have an appreciation for this name!

I love [name_f]Jenny[/name_f] !

I really like it and think it would sound fresh on a little girl today.

I really like [name_f]Jenny[/name_f], but personally prefer [name_f]Jen[/name_f]. Both are lovely though.

I will admit I do somewhat prefer both conceptually as a nickname than as a full name, but haven’t found a name I like them as short for yet (I’m not a fan of [name_f]Jenna[/name_f], and [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f] doesn’t feel quite ready for a comeback to me).

[name_f]Jenny[/name_f] is pretty sweet and unexpected

I like [name_f]Jenny[/name_f]! It feels very sweet and friendly.

Simple and sweet!

Not a huge fan, as it’s a bit dated and sounds like a mean-girl name, to me. I do prefer Jenna!

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] I was baptized [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f] but am known 99.9% as [name_f]Jenna[/name_f]. People other than my family called me [name_f]Jenny[/name_f] as a child…I hated it (I still detest it for myself by association). [name_f]My[/name_f] Brother said … “it’s” a female donkey, crab, spinning machine, on and on.
And now when there is not going to be 2 or 3 Jenny’s in a class… I would love the name for a Granddaughter. I think the name could do with a great role model though. Classy and sophisticated, not so much of the very sweet.
