Jorja
Replies
I don't mind it. In fact, I'm very neutral towards the name but I do prefer the Georgia spelling best
I think Georgia is pretty. It's sophisticated but it's still down to earth and friendly.
I do not like Jorja. At best I want to pronounce it in Spanish and don't recognize it as even the same name, and at worst it looks like an illiterate person trying to spell Georgia.
I think JJ is a cute nickname for a girl.

Jorja is so awful :( I'm sorry. It doesn't even look like the parents were being creative, it looks like they couldn't spell Georgia. I like Georgia but find it a bit harsh. Georgina is more elegant, in my opinion.
I dislike the nickname JJ I think it's really 80s. I know quite a few girls with this nickname, born in the 70s and 80s, whose full names were Jennifer Joanne, Jessica Joy and other common J names popular at the time (I feel like the letter J is out of style in general, the only J name in the top 100 for girls is Julia and that will likely fall out soon).
Jorja nn JJ might make sense, but when people hear Jorja they will likely assume it was spelled Georgia and then they will probably wonder where JJ comes from because that's really not a nickname you associate with Georgia.

I personally prefer Georgia by a mile but I don't mind Jorja. I think the "J" spelling feels more modern and plays up the youthful and spunky vibes, though I admit wondering, briefly, if it was meant to be pronounced with an "h" sound.
Forgot to comment on "JJ". I like the spunkiness and I think it works fine as a feminine nickname but, I would prefer Georgia with "GG" or "Gigi", if a nickname was wanted.

Love Georgia. It's classic and elegant. It sounds like it would belong to somebody strong-willed, creative and kind. It would be good for a girl or woman of any age and any profession.
Hate "Jorja". It's trying too hard to be different and trendy, and will lead to a lifetime of her having to explain the spelling to everybody she meets.
