I really love it, but I slightly prefer Genevieve for its longer history of use. It is very pretty though.

I don't like the "neeve" part. But I do like it more than Genevieve and Guinevere.

I used to know one my age.
I like it. I think it's more approachable than Genevieve and sounds more elegant than Jennifer.

Geneva / Neva used to be fairly popular in the US, but it doesn't really sound old-fashioned to me.

ditto.

I met a girl born around 2009 named Geneva. Was surprised by how likeable I think it is. On paper it seems like just a city name, but on a person it seems really nice and I don't think of the city.

Hi !!!

Unfortunately Geneva is too similar to Genova (a Ligurian city) so here in Italy it would be daily mispronounced.

I prefer Guinevere.

The Swiss city here is called Ginevra (also Italian form of Guinevere) and this name has been trendy since 2000s.
