Joanne is such a pretty name. I love its pronunciation and written form. It’s an ageless name, and every Joanne that I’ve met, adult, teenager or little girl, regardless of their age, were so sweet and smart. The first baby girl born in Canada in 2020 was named Joanne. This name and its variations have been very popular in the UK and British royal family, Joan of England, Joan lady of Wales. Joanne of Austria.

This name is so ugly. It is the ugliest sounding name out there. Jo-Anne. Reminds me of Yo Adrian. It reminds me of an unsophisticated person from the Bronx. It is so unbelievably plain and manly. I do not mean to be mean but admit it, this is not a sophisticated name. And it sounds so masculine "Hey Jo-anne. C'mere." It is just trashy. Who wants Joe in the middle of their name if they aren't a guy? Sorry but this name is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY overused I am glad it is out of fashion.

This is the ugliest sounding and written name I have ever heard. It is so MANLY. The JO part of it is just so ugly. And Anne at the end is so plain. I just think this name has no creativity whatsoever involved and it is not musical at all. Jo-anne. Yo Adrian. That is what it reminds me of- the Bronx. Who wants JOE in their name if she is a woman?

This is my name. Many people spell it wrong but there are many variations. Yes, it can get annoying but you correct it and move on with your day. Mine is JoAnne. Two capitals no space or hyphen and an "e" at the end.
The fact that the name isn't used much anymore is fine with me. Too "country"? What does that even mean? It's a name.
There is a song Joanne by Michael Nesmith of the Monkees also.
