I like Imogen. I don't care about the Shakespearean connection. My hesitancy to use it isn't Immy, but Jen/Gen. I hate Jen. I have also seen Imogene if you prefer the nickname Jean/Gene.

I like Imogen, but not a fan of Immy. Gen is prettier, although Imogen in full works well enough.

I like Imogen very much and would use it as a fn without hesitation.

Immy is a turn-off! But I've only known one Imogen, and she went by the full name and nobody tried anything else. Other possible nns could be Ginny, Jenny or Midge!

I find the sound strange, but like it for that very reason. I think Immy is a sweet nn for a small child. I know an adorable brunette 3 y/o here in the US who is called Imogen, and it is wonderful on her. Suits her perfectly. Her nickname comes from her older sister, who of her own accord started calling her 'Pidge' (easier to say, I think) -- Pigeon! So cute.

I don't mind Imogen at all and I think Immy makes a cute nn. It does get used a bit here in Australia.

Remind me of of the word Imagine, perhaps
no negative connotations here
nor positive
it is not popular here, so it would be an interesting choice..
if you don't like Immy maybe you would like Gen or Meg, or Gem, or Mogen, Mo,or even Iggy or Em, ect... or go by the full name...

I adore it.

Immy doesn't sound awkward at all to me because, being from Australia, I know or have known a fair few Imogens and they've all gone by Im or Immy as a nickname (though every one I've known mostly goes by Imogen, Im and Immy are never all they go by).

Imogen is on my PNL and it's not popular enough in Australia for the popularity to turn me off it. It's one of those names that crops up with some regularity without it being boring or popular enough that the kid will need to go by their last name initial in a classroom. I live in the US now and it's super uncommon here so if I had my child here, I'd actually be really pushing to use it because it is so familiar to me but unusual here.

I think it's very classy, ages well, I like the nickname Immy, and it's a beautiful deep purple color to me. I've always really liked the name.

Imogen's one of my longest name loves. It has a down to earth, vintage feel, and I've always liked the sound. I wouldn't use because I'm in the UK and it is popular, but I think it's a great choice.

Hi Perrine!!

I strongly dislike the name Imogen because of its sound.

It seems a mix between 'igiene' (cleanliness and hygiene) and 'ammoniaca' (ammonia).
