Whats your favorite girl name?

Jennsyn Iva (nickname-Jenn)
Jazzele Iva (nickname-Jazz)
Jordana Josephine (nickname-JJ)

You will be able to change your vote.

I should also mention that my name is Jennifer and I kinda think its neat to have a portion of my name incorporated in Jennsyn also my college mentor's name is Dr. Jensen. My beloved late grandmother's name is Iva. Josephine is the name of someone who has been an absolute blessing in my life.

I think I prefer Jensyn. Don't cha think the 'y' alone softens things and makes it more fem?? Jencyn may be OK...I just think some people may mispronounce it and give the 'c' a 'k' sound. I just really love the name...always have! My name is Jennifer and I like that my name is present with in without doing the whole jr thing and my college mentor's name is Dr. Jensen. I LOVE Jocelyn and that is actaully Dr. Jensen's first name...BUT a very good friend of mine already used the name for her daughter.

Honestly, I don't think it looks too feminine. There's this trend that altering the spelling of a masculine name "makes" it feminine, but it still sounds the same...it just looks misspelled. Not a favorite trend in my world!

I have to weigh in again on the name Jensen since my daughter has that name.

Jordana Josephine is my fav I think.

Jazzelle Iva doesn't work for me but it's ultimately what you want best.
