I’m glad there’s so many Jenny fans!
in reply to a message by Martha
I like Jenny (prefer Jennie, my GG’s name) and Annie. Jennie I’d even use in a middle spot. Both of them I find strong and sweet. I also think Katie is strong and sweet.
With Allie and Abby I’m on the positive side of neutral.
Ellie is sweet but I prefer Elle or Elizabeth, and the L-sound heavy names aren’t generally as appealing to me these days... I’m hungry for thicker consonants.
Jessie and Emmie I’m not a fan of. But a positive association could turn that around. I don’t much like how everywhere Emmie is these days.
Carrie makes me think of Little House/Laura Ingalls. I don’t like the sound of it, but I like the association. My favorite Caroline nn is Caro.
