Jennifer has just popped into my head. What do you think? Too dated? Not keen on the shortenings, but think Jennifer is beautiful.

Really love it

I know multiple Jennifer’s ( admittedly all 40 plus) and I think it’s a gorgeous traditional name which is underused now. But they are all known as Jen or Jenny. I think you would be on a losing battle with that.

Lovely name. Also like Jen and Jenny as diminutives

It’s a lovely name.

Lovely name it was the name I used in most of my stories as child.

@PithyLion plenty of options to shorten Guinevere that I've heard anyway

Watchthedoormat · 15/06/2024 22:44

Lovely

Yes, it's a lovely name.

PithyLion · 15/06/2024 22:43

I loved Genesis when there was a character with that name on Emmedale!

greengreyblue · 15/06/2024 22:41

I like it. It’s nice to hear and say.

wizzler · 15/06/2024 22:41

Love it. Also Genevieve

I love the name, but it’s the name of my favourite godmother so I may be biased.
