Graceful
written by written by Jennifer Ann, 15 March 2008, March 14, 2008
I love being called Jennifer there is something graceful about it. When people call me Jennifer it reminds me of my father. Everyone else called me Jenny. Except of course if I was called Jennifer by my mother that meant I was in trouble!!

There are WAAAAAAAAAY too many Jennifers!!!

My circle of friends contains 3 of us!! We have to go by nicknames...JJ (my last name begins with J too), Jenn D. and Jenn Love (her middle name)...it gets so confusing!

But it is a very classic name...

My name is Jennifer Hill, maiden name Jennifer Lee. Growing up everyone called me Jennylee. I found out that most people I knew for a very long time honestly thought my first name was Jennylee and I had to explain all the time that that was my first and last name. I seriously think I meet a Jennifer everyday of my life. This is why I have a Netalya, and KianaLee for my two girls. I haven't even been able to find them with the spellings I chose, but the meanings are beautiful as well as the names.

My name is Jennifer Amy which isn't a common first/middle combination. Most of the Jennifers around here are named Jennifer Lynn or Jennifer Jo. But I recently met another Jennifer Amy which was a first for me. I named my daughter Jenevieve and people assume I named her after me. Not true. I've always loved the name Jenevieve and since my husband and I both have the initials of JAS I wanted hers to be the same. If I had spelled her name the common way with a 'G' her initials would have been GAS. Couldn't do that to her! So Jenevieve it is and we call her Eve for short so that there won't be 2 Jens in the house. :)

When I was younger I hated my name - in my third grade class there were three Jennifers - after a while I stopped looking up if my name was only called once. Wherever I go I usually find more than one Jennifer. My Mom named me Jennifer June, which I always thought was a pretty combination. I also find that I don't mind being called "Jenny" b/c its usually said with affection - my Mom and sister used to call me Jenny Penny and a co-worker used to love calling me "Jenny Jen" - I can't say I ever minded either of these nicknames.
Is that with one n or two?
written by Jennifer Lillian, August 04, 2009
Who else hates this question? Every time I have ever filled out anything especially over the phone they ask, do you spell Jennifer with one n or two? I have met a lot of Jennifer's and to date only two were spelled with only one n. They should be responsible for themselves to identify themselves, and if nothing is said, there will be an understanding that it is most likely spelled with two n's.
Besides that, I like my name, whether it be Jenn, Jenny or Jennifer. One teacher would always ask me "What's a Jenni for?"
Love my name
written by Jennifer, September 09, 2009
