Jane, mainly because that's my mom's middle name

Jane

Hey

Jane

Jane

Jane

Joan

Like Janet, Joanne, and Janna.

Jean

---

I almost chose Joan.

Joanna

---

although Jane would probably win if Joanna wasn't my mother's name.

Jane.

Tough.

---

It's a tie between Joanna and Janet. If forced to chose I'd go with Joanna.

Joanna

---

Though I've always found the spelling Johanna to be more attractive, even if that H (in English) doesn't do much of anything. :-)

-Janet-

---

-as above-

Jane

---

It's so light, open and airy. I'm trying to get more into Jean because it's a name my bf really likes, it's a family name for me, and it would be a refreshing choice these days.... but it has such a harsh sound :(

Jean.

Jane x1000

I think Jane is the most timeless out of the list. Janet, Jean and Joan are dated. Joanne is boring. Joanna is slightly less boring but still boring. Janna sounds like modern rubbish. :p

I love Joan nn Joanie!

---

Joan. It is the most surprising on a young person, and I believe it is ripe for the reviving. It's so streamline and buttoned up. I also think the vowel sound is lovely. I'd readily use the adorable nickname Joanie as well, adding a buttoned-down alternative.

---

I also love Jean, Jane, Joanna, and Janet, but they seem to miss a special energy that Joan exudes for me.

It's a tie between Jean and Janet. Jane is boring, I dislike Janna and Joan et al. bore me stupid.

Jane

I would have had more of a struggle if Janna was Jana.

Janna

Jane

Joanna

Jane

It's so simple and pretty. I love it.

My favorite is Jane.

Jean!

Joan.

Jane

Joanna

I like the Jo sound, and I tend to prefer names that are 3-4 syllables.

Joanna

Jane

Joanna

Jane

Joan

Can I do Johanna? Or Joni?

---

Otherwise I'll go with Jane. It's got a clean sound to me and is spunky in this day and age. I have two good friends my age (although one spells it Jayne) and they are great people so it is a good association.

Joan.

Jane - Simple, classic, timeless, feminine.

---

:)

Joan

---

Used to be my favorite girl name of all. I wouldn't use it as a first name, because of John, but I might use it as a middle for the saint.

Janet

Janet for sure. m

---

I don't like Joan, Joanne and Joanna at all. They sound really heavy and dense.

---

I love Jane but not quite as much as Janet. It isn't on there but guess what I love Janice (or Janis) too.

---

Jean and Janna are just OK.

Joan

Joanna

---

I also like Jean, Jane, Joanne.

---

And I like Jana (JAY-na) / Jaina, and Janel (not Janelle), and Jeanne (jeen or zhahn), and Jeannine / Janine.

---

Janet was the name of a very abrasive woman who was my boss's wife for a number of years, and the name is ruined for me right now because of her. I don't dislike it as much as Joan though (don't like the sound of Joan).

Jane

---

Although Janet's got attitude. Love Jane - classy and timeless.
