Jena I would pronounce as Jenna and I can't think of any example in English where Je followed by a consonant, at the start of a word, would be pronounced as jee not jeh.(I might be wrong though).

The next two I would both pronounce as Jo-ny

Joey I see as quite unisex but I wouldn't name a girl independently Joey. It's a cute nickname though for any other Jo- feminine names.
