I think it’s prettier than Jennifer.
I think Jenna has more personality than Jennifer, but that neither of them are particularly warm.
I find it dated and nothing spectacular.
I think of Jenna Bush, the (younger, I think) daughter of former president GW Bush. It seemed a little bit going-out-of-style when she was named. (She's now Jenna Bush Hager, I only know because I looked it up just now. She named her daughters Margaret Laura - but called "Mila," hah, and Poppy Louise, and her son Henry Harold called "Hal." Seems very predictable) She's a pretty negative association for me, mainly because of being a Bush, and I don't find Jenna very appealing.
It's a nice enough name otherwise. I guess it does seem sporty. I've never heard of Jenna Ortega, but a younger bearer always seems to buff a name's image.
I like Brenna and Calla more - those are names I sort of think of as having a similar vibe.

Jenna is so yawn to me. I knew bunches growing up but they were all older than me, so it's also aging in my mind.
It's cute, a little outdated, but still enjoyable. I like it best as a nickname for Jennifer.
Pretty but dull. Even if I do love Jenna Ortega.
To me, Jenna is a TV character name from the 80's show Dallas. The character was played by Priscilla Presley. I don't care for it or Jennifer. I grew up with too many Jennifers to find it remotely interesting.
I like Jenna, but I always think of the girl from Thirteen Going on Thirty. I would prefer Jennifer, possibly with the nicknames Jenn or Jenny.
I prefer Jennifer, either as a full name all the time or with nn Jenny.
I like Jenna a lot.
Nice
I think it's very cute. Feels fresher and less generic than Jennifer.
I really dislike Jenna, largely because the first brat I remember meeting (in kindergarten) was named Jenna. I do prefer Jenna to Jessa, for what it's worth.

🤣 funny how we remember the brats in kindergarten all the years later. The brat in my class was named Logan (F).
Maybe she was pissed her parents gave her a boys name.
Perhaps! 😅 her twin was named Lily, a perfectly decent choice. Their older sister was named Kristen or Krista or similar. Even as a kid I had wondered why they chose it when the other two girls had relatively decent girl's names. But I also distinctly remember all 3 girls had bowl cuts as well so perhaps their parents decision making was just generally a mixed bag? 😅
