Comments for the name Ginny

Ginny is cool name, it reminds of my favorite book.

I hate this name. As a Harry Potter fan, when I see this name, I think of it as the pet form of Ginevra. I LOVE that name, and "Ginny" is just a childish insult to it.

Many people hear it and spell it Jenny - which is much too common to be associated with Ginevra, even by mistake.

It's just a name, Emmasj. It's not that serious.

I also like Ginevra and dislike Ginny. However, it seems to me that a name like Ginevra needs a nickname, and Ginny is the most logical one; it's interesting that Ginevra seems very mature and elegant to me while Ginny is sort of down to earth and childish.

I picture a girl with locks and dressed in a checkered dress and a percale apron, running down a field.

I have always really liked this name. There's a warmth and friendliness to it.

I first heard it from the show Little House on the Prairie. The character named Ginny was either a cousin or sister to the main character Laura Ingles.

I would think it could be a nickname for not only Virginia, but also Genevieve and Ginger. I probably wouldn't use it by itself, but as a nickname I love it!

It's an okay name. But for some reason, I always want to pronounce it with a hard G, which would make for a hideous name!
