I also like Lovejoy. LOL.
Joy is my middle name, and I'm named after my aunt
Joy Marie so I'm a bit biased, but I still like it.
Joy is named after (I'm pretty sure...) my grandma
Joyce Ellen. I don't prefer
Joyce to
Joy though. I like
Joy much better.
Rina is nice. I don't like
Aliza (or
Eliza, for that matter... no offense). I also like
Rina as a nn for
Katarina, but then it really wouldn't mean
Joy. And strangely...
Katarina Joy is one of my favorite combos. :)
I think
Joy would sound great with a 5-syllable last name... especially if the mn is 2 or 3-syllables.
