Georgina

Sweet, love love love it.

This name is on a middle name list, to honor my grandfather, George. I know a Georgina who goes by Gigi, and I personally find that much nicer than Gina.

An older relative of mine was named Georgina, and was always called Georgie. I personally think that it's so precious, but apparently she hated it and changed it as an adult. In my opinion, the name is beautiful, but everyone's opinion is different.

I registered just to share a man's perspective. Not that it matters, but it seems like most responses are from women.
I don't like that name. In fact, when I was younger and super vain and shallow, it would bug me to date a girl with that name. Because it's basically George, with a feminine flair at the end. Admittedly, I was ridiculously selective and picky when I was dating. I'm not trying to earn any points here, just being honest. Call me what you want, you're probably right. I never liked names for women that were just a variation of a man's name. Like "Alberta" or "Roberta". It felt like they had almost a masculine name. But for me it's because the big attraction for me to women is their complete opposition to a man. Appearance, name, smell, maturity, personality, softness, etc.
That's my reason.

Just a note...I found myself in this comment section because I searched "what do women named Georgina hate being called the most". Why? Because my wife works with a really rude woman. This woman is actually underneath my wife, but for a different agency (state of Florida/DCF). This woman is always yapping in her ear about how things SHOULD be done, but she's always wrong, and my wife is awesome at her job, loved by everyone, 17 raises in 16 years. My wife is a sweetheart who had never had an enemy. Just a nice, decent, caring person. But what is annoying is that she always calls my wife Pat when she calls to whine and complain. My wife's name is Patricia. I call her Pee Wee myself. But no one calls her Pat. So we find it rude that she feels she can assign her a name without any consideration to whether my wife likes that name and wants to be called that. So I suggested she call her George from now on. Show her how it feels. Joe, George, Georgia...what would irritate you most if your name is Georgina?
Disclaimer...my opinion means nothing. If you are named Georgina, I'm sure you're awesome and beautiful. I hope you are healthy, happy, and your family loves you. Just because I don't like the name, there are thousands who love it.

I think this name is really cute! Like a nature princess or something! Cool name to all people named this.

I Love the name Georgina. It's unique and beautiful. I love this name more than any other feminine George name. To me it sounds like a royal princess type name. I love the nickname Georgie.

I love it. Georgina is a beautiful name because it's so nice and lovely ❤❤.

A bit working class.

Georgina is a beautiful and gorgeous name. It's going to be a name for a future daughter as mentioned on my profile.

I apologize if this is bothering people who comment here, but could you PLEASE STOP removing several usage without reason?! This has happened since several usage for some names were removed: First Abigail, next Amelia, etc. And now Georgina. It's tacky and makes me hurt when someone does that.

Full of sound, but kind of bland in feeling. Too ordinary somehow, doesn't seem to spark up in the way that it should. Can still be trendy and stylish, though.

I love this name. My BFF is called Georgina... most people call her Geo or Georgie. She is really nice, and, as we're in Year 6 (11 years old) it is most certainly not an old lady's name.

I don’t like the name Georgina. It sounds yucky, ugly and dated. Georgia is better, but I don’t like George and its variants.

My name is Georgina and I absolutely hate it. I can't find any good nicknames from it, most people call me something like Georgie, George, Gigi or Gia and it's awful. At school my teachers could never get it right, they would either say Georgiana or Georgia and it was awful. I honestly hate my name and I'm really annoyed that my parents chose it for me. I think it's a nice name for other people but it isn't a name I connected with.

Very feminine and beautiful name.

My name is Georgina and I go by Ginny. My mam wanted to name me after her Great Auntie Ginny but wanted a longer fuller name. I love my name but it is sometimes mixed up with Georgia but I don’t really mind. Georgina Sparks is also the name of a character in the TV series Gossip Girl.

As a Georgina who goes mainly by Gina except at work, I love this name. It’s professional, fun and not too common in the U.K. but everyone knows it. It has always annoyed me when people call me Georgie though and sometimes people get it confused with Georgia.

I would love to have been Georginia for added regal-ness and difference!

I'm called Georgina, and I'm quite young (14). When I was really young, I was nicknamed Nina, but I preferred my proper name ever since I was nine. People do say it's an older person's name, but I think it is not too awful, instead, very pretty. I think my middle name, Emily, goes well with it.

Cute but seems a bit dated in the UK.

Sort of sounds like Norwegian...

I am also a Georgina. Named after my grandmother. It was shortened to Gina when I was a girl, but now I make sure everyone calls me by the full name. Some call me Georgie, which is okay too. My full name is Georgina Violet as all girls in my family are named after flowers.

Sounds fancy but also has this country vibe all at once. Makes me think of someone fun. I love how soft and simple this name is, besides Georgia is the only feminine George name I like. I think Georgiana personally is a little bit extra with the second a. I honestly just see someone classy having this name. Like literally a princess or even a queen.

I am a Georgina. I HATE being called Georgia or my name being spelt Georgie.
I'm usually called Georgi but don't mind George from time to time.
Overall, I love the name Georgina.

My name is actually Georgina. I liked being George or Gina, it's a part of me that I love.

I prefer this name Georgina, as it is not as common, but everyone recognizes it as a 'common' name, if you know what I mean. I love this name and only know one person in real life with this name, and someone from a TV show. Quite ironic though, how much I love it since it is so very close to my last name.

I've always found that whenever I get a new phone I have to go through the whole teaching it to recognize Georgina thing before it finally stops auto correcting my name to Georgian!

Growing up I think I only encountered one other Georgina in my school, same class and everything! Now I have to deal with the confusion at work with Gina (who actually is a Georgina), Georgia, Georgia, Georgia, Georgina and myself. I mostly go by Georgi (or Georgie) but a few other names I've been called over the years are Gina George (after Mean Girls because it's so nearly Regina George), George, Gina, Genie, Ina (or Eena) or Gigi. Hate it when people call me Georgia which actually does happens a lot, I tend to respond to it with some quip about there being an n in there. I think the only nickname I haven't been given but I know a friend of a friend uses, is Nina... basically there are so many options with this name.

I like the name. It's the female version of George (Which is a name I like) so it gets marks for that. I named one of my characters Georgina. Shame it never caught on in the US though.

Beautiful, elegant, just gorgeous. Makes a good sib-set with Philippa :)

Though I strongly disliked my name growing up, I am more than comfortable with it now. My parents chose to spell my name differently so I am Jorgina, mostly I am called Jorgi or just Jorge though. There is a British actress, Jorgie Porter who was born 10 years after I was and was christined as Jorgina.

I love this name, it's elegant, intelligent, and underused. Gia is a possible cute nickname.

Georgina is a lovely name. It isn't too long or too short or too common! I have only known 2 other Georginas! It goes well with many middle names like Elizabeth, Isabelle/Isabel and Rebecca! It can have heaps of nick names like Georgie, Georgia, George and Gia and Gina! My favourite is George and then Georgie.

Can be hard to say, with the same hard letter pronounced twice.

I find the name too sugary, and it reminds me of trying to talk with your mouth full.

I think this is a very pretty name, and I also like the related names Georgia and Georgiana. Jori is a nice nickname for this name.

Lovely lovely name and I really like the names of a baby born last year whose parents chose the gorgeous combo Georgina Belle.

This is my cousin Georgie's name and I love it. It's got more potential for nicknames than Georgia and isn't so fussy as Georgiana which I only like pronounced like they do in England anyway - jor-jee-ah-nuh.
Besides that it's not overused like Georgia and Georgina isn't one of several Georginas in her class - all those Georgias out there can't say that!
It has just that little bit more to offer than Georgia and I prefer it to all the girl's "George" names.

I love this name because it sounds fun, but still intelligent.

One of my friends is called Georgina, and whilst I think this name is very lovely and old-fashioned, she likes to be called George. It suits her though because she isn't really a girly-girl. I haven't heard this name very much, so I don't think it's too common.

I like Georgina or Georgine. I love the nickname Georgie!

Georgina feels to me like an overkill on Georgia.

I had an aunt named Georgina (who died at age eight), and it's one of my middle names which was given to me in her honor. I love the name Georgina, it's a long and strong Spanish name. It reminds me of the French name Charlotte. It seems old, but it is still beautiful. I'm very proud to carry this name.

I quite like being called Georgina because it's not really weird/ embarrassing, but then again it's not one of the most common names around. And it's nice to read everyone's comments about it (as they are mostly positive!) I LOVED the Famous Five so I got all my friends in primary school to call me George. My brothers still do. I can't stand Georgie or Gina though.

I think Georgina is the best name in the whole entire world and if you're thinking of calling your child Georgina some great middle names would be Therese, Belle, Elizabeth, Lucia and Veronica.
