There's something about Imogene that makes me feel fondly towards it, much more than Imogen. Imogen is admirable, but it is kind of cold, it's haughty. But Imogene is trying so hard to be something that it makes me think of someone clumsily attempting to put on airs, and that makes me like it more. It's like Lucille Ball in a bit where she has to imitate a high society lady. Sometimes names that are trying really hard turn me off, but Imogene's attempts to do it feel plucky and relatable. Maybe it's the "Jeen" ending sound, it's scrappy and down to earth. You've convinced me to love this name.

Imogene Pearl is my kinda scene, love that one. I also love Imogene Olga!
