What sort of girl is Georgiana?

Rather than Georgia or Georgina. Sounds very vintage/antique to me and i really like the name.

And i have been playing close attention to Colin Firth’s pronounciation and am very sure that in P&P he refers to “Geor-jee-aanah Darcy”, in contrast to the the Whig pronounciation of “George-aina”, in the Keira K film about the Duchess of Devonshire.

Don’t forget the mean cousin from Jane Eyre. I still quite like it as a name though!

Georgiana would be my daughter if not for DH's dislike for the name! You're spot on re: P&P.
Beautiful name!
