Hi,
I love Genevieve, I've been wittering on about it all weekend but my husband just turned around out of the blue and said he doesn't dislike it but can't imagine calling his kid the name either. boo!
Also like Georgina and Georgiana.
Any other names that could be Ginny or GiGi?? (our surname begins with a G).

Thank you

Virginia. I think it's a beautiful name.

Olivelor · 03/12/2017 20:39

Genevieve is such a lovely name. How about Ginevra or Giselle?

PaxUniversalis · 03/12/2017 20:53

Ginger - as in Ginger Rogers.
Virginia
Gigi on its own is nice too

SnowyPolarBear · 03/12/2017 23:02

I would just call her Ginny.

Longer names could be:
Genevive
Gemini
Georgia
Georgiana
Georgina
Gertrude

None of these longer names are my cup of tea, hence why I would just stick with Ginny.

Appuskidu · 03/12/2017 23:04

The only Ginnys I know are Imogens.

Catinthecorner · 03/12/2017 23:44

Juniper?

sayhellotothelittlefella · 04/12/2017 00:34

Ginevra ( I'm fairly sure it's just one n )

SarraJ · 04/12/2017 00:53

I like Ginger the best. Smile
