Re: Djuna -- as in Djuna Barnes, the author, 1892-1982
in reply to a message by Nanaea
Many, many thanks! I just adore the name - heard it first in Woody Allen's movie "Everyone Says I Love You" - the narrator's name is Djuna. I have heard of Djuna Barnes but have not had the opportunity to read her work. A friend has told me I'll love it. My husband and I are expecting twin girls and hope to name one Djuna and the other Dinah. Thank you so much for the information!

You're welcome. :) And, I suppose you already knew that the name is pronounced: "joo-nah" (the "D" is silent).
