This reminds me of the Christmas carol "Bring a torch, Jeannette Isabella. Bring a torch, to the cradle run. It is Jesus, good folk of the village. Christ is born, and Mary's calling. Ah! Ah! Beautiful is the mother! Ah! Ah! Beautiful is the son!"
Jeannette Walls is the author of The Glass Castle. I had to read this book for my college English class and I loved it. I reccomend the book to everyone.
This name is not very common, which I like. Also, it seems more suitable for a child or young woman than the English form, Janet.
