Re: Rebekah Jayne (m)
in reply to a message by Isla
I've never really thought of Jayne as a creative spelling, ever since I heard of this old time actress with that name from the 1930's, I believe. She made it seem classy for me. I like Rebekah because it is the spelling in the bible. It looks lovely.

Jayne Mansfield was actually born Vera Jane... but she changed the spelling for Hollywood, and eventually dropped Vera.

She was known as Jayne though, and she made me love the variant.

I like this spelling rather than Jane, but I perfer the pronounicaiton "Janie" rather than Jane though.

You might prefer that pronunciation, but it's still an incorrect pronunciation.
