Hi, thank you for your input too. I have a feeling Jensyn is definately out...and am sure I already knew that, because I already knew it didn't fit with my other kids names.

I like Jensyn, but it is too different for me when paired with your other children's names. I really like Jenna though and I think that flows well with the rest of the kids names...and from personal experience not having things with your name on it when everyone else does is kinda crappy. So much so that now that Amber is mainstream...I buy almost ANYTHING with my name on it, as does my mom!

Good Luck I hope you settle soon

Amber

I'm personally not a fan of Jensyn because it does sound masculine. I don't necessarily think your kids names need to fit well together either. I like the name Jenna, whether you name her Jensyn or Jenna she'll be called Jen for short, so it's good if you like the nn Jen. Here are a few more suggestions:

Jamesyn or Jamisyn or Jamison - You can get your Y in there and I think it sounds more feminine than Jensyn. NN - Jamie

Jenalyn - a combo of Jensyn and Jenna, but sounds more feminine. I knew an adorable little blonde named Jenalyn.

Jillian - suggested before, but I still like it.

Hope this helps! Keep us posted.

I think Jensyn is lovely. There are tons of possibilities for more common nn's, such as Jen, as well. As long as you and DH love the name why not go for it? HTH.
