[Opinions] Re: Jennifer, Guinevere and Ginerva
Well, "white phantom" is an interesting meaning. I like it, it's mystical!I love Jennifer. Yeah, it might sound too 80's, but still an awesome name, along with Jessica. I also like Jenifer, Yenifer and Jenna (if you don't like Jenny as a nn, try Jenna).I like Arthurian legends, but I don't find the name Guinevere appealing.I like Ginevra, but I wouldn't use it on a kid, because the Spanish form of this name is Ginebra and... Ginebra is the Spanish word for "gin" (yet there are more than 300 kids with this name in my country, strange).Well, Genevieve could be a substitute for Jennifer. I have a book that incorrectly links these names together; their etymologies are different but the names sound similar. And you can get Geneva as a nn.
