[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all! I’ve lately been obsessed with the name [name_f]Virginia[/name_f], which feels really refreshing and fun to me, especially since I’ve never met anyone with that name. I also really love the name [name_f]Ginger[/name_f] as a childhood nickname. What are your thoughts? I know there’s the teaseable “virgin” element with [name_f]Virginia[/name_f], but I don’t really care too much about that - should I? Any other reasons not to choose this name? If so, any other names that have a similar vibe I should consider?
Thanks so much!!
I’ve never minded [name_f]Virginia[/name_f]. I think [name_f]Ginger[/name_f] is a cute nickname, and [name_f]Ginny[/name_f] is cute as well. It’s not my all time favorite name, but I don’t think it’s terrible and I think it is definitely usable.
If you were looking for another state name, maybe [name_u]Dakota[/name_u], [name_f]Arizona[/name_f], or [name_f]Alaska[/name_f]?
