Georgia

WDYT? Been going back and forth on it for the longest. I think it sounds beautiful and classy, but at the same time I'm worried about it giving off too much of a country vibe, as that's not my style and not what I'm going for.

Also, how do you feel about Georgina?

I like it. I don't really get a country vibe. There'd have to be some reason to see it that way, something about the bearer.

I don't like Georgina, it sounds prissy to me. I like nn Gina though.

Love.

Adorable name, and it does not give me a country vibe at all.

I like Georgina better than Georgia.

I also like Georgiana.

I think a lot of the variants are pretty.

I like both. But I do find Georgia a bit country. Georgina I find classier but bordering on snoody. But I think knowing someone with either of these names these preconceived notions would be easily overwritten.

Georgia is a bit 90s where I live. I much prefer Georgina.

I hugely prefer Georgina. More nn possibilities, and not at all geographical.

The state ruins this name for me. I really want to appreciate it for its classic and sophisticated vibe, but all I can think of is NASCAR and snake-handling preachers. Georgina is much better IMO because it doesn't have the state connotations.

I like Georgina a lot better, especially if you're going for less of a country vibe. It seems sweeter and fresher than the slightly stuffy Georgia. Plus it has more nn options.

I love Georgia. Not such a big fan of Georgina. "Eena" names sound a bit dated for me.
