It's not among my top favourites, but it's in the next tier down from them. It's quite a posh name here (I'm in the UK, not sure where you are), and much more elegant and classic than Joanne. There are two rather lovely UK actresses called Joanna - Lumley and David.
They are middle-aged (Joanna David is Emilia Fox's mum), but I know a Joanna in her early 20s. She's known as Jo, which I'm not fond of - I see Jo as short for Josephine (a name I dislike) and think Joanna is too beautiful to be shortened to it.
I don't see it much in the BAs, but it's timeless and I would consider using it.
In Cockney rhyming slang "the old Joanna" means "piano"!
