Re: Georgia
in reply to a message by Perrine
I love Georgina, and think it's a good way of achieving something like Jean as a nn without actually using Jean! Which is seriously dated. I've never encountered or read about a South African Georgia, so whatever it is here, it isn't common at all.
I don't like Georgie. Jean or Gina would be fine.
Georgina all the way! Georgia is not just one place name but two, and I don't go for place names on people. Georgiana is far too ornate, 18th-century people going all Latinate; and then there's the strange belief that it sounds or could sound like George+aina.
