I really like Georgia as a girls name.
Georgina is okay but it sounds rather dated.
Georgette is another pretty feminine variant of George.
Georgiana is okay but a bit too flowery for my tastes.

Georgia: I really hate it

Georgina: meh.

They are both very dated. Georgie is so cute though, for a girl.
ETA: I am from the american southeast.

I love Georgina and Georgiana as well as Georgette and Georgetta. Georgie is very "in" as a nickname at the moment I have known several girls and boys that go by it in the everyday. I like Georgia okay, I don't love it but I like it just fine.

Edit: I am from the US midwest if that makes a difference since you ask

I love the feminine George names. Because I am greedy, I prefer a longer George- base, such as Georgina, Georgiana, or Georgette, with the option for Georgia, Georgie and George as nicknames. That way you get ALL of them.

I'm from Canada (Manitoba) and nobody is called any of these here. The closest I've ever seen is when a Jordan was sometimes called "Georgia" as a pet name. Georgina is kind of a fancy old fashioned name I guess, very very very rare.

Georgina sounds more dated to me. It reminds me Grandma Georgina from "Charlie and the chocolate factory".
Georgia sounds too geographic; I would never use it for a baby girl.
Anyway, I think the bast variant is the Italian Giorgia.

I like both. I may like Georgiana even more. Georgia did seem poised to become the next big thing for a while. I'm glad that tapered off.

I've never met a Georgia, and I never think of it as a human name: a place in the US, a place between Europe and Asia, but not a person.

I've always liked Georgina. It's one of the f versions of a m name that I prefer to the m name - I'd rather have a daughter Georgina than a son George. I'd probably only consider it as a mn, though Jean is a family name so I might use Georgina, nn Gine, as a fn after all.

ETA I'm South African, and I've only ever encountered Georgina as a mn.

Both are a bit dated in the UK at the moment, but Georgina feels more classic to me. Georgia is very 90s/early 00s.
