There was only one Jennifer in my entire high school, but you see, I'm much older than almost everyone else here, so that's not surprising. At the time that I was born, Jennifer was not a popular name at all. That lay about ten years into the future.

I've known three Jennifers, all little girls when I knew them, who'd now be in their twenties. None went by Jenny, surprisingly. I've never known anyone whose full name is Jenny.

I've never been overly fond of Jennifer because I don't like the last syllable. FER is not an attractive sound to me. So I'd choose Jenna over Jennifer. I don't think that Jennifer will make a comeback for a long long time. It was just too popular too recently. I can see Jenna being popular.

I think that more people should follow the old Scottish custom of using Jenny as a nickname for Jane.
