Jennie Garth's given name is Jennifer Eve Garth. I think Brenda is prettier!

I like the unique way of spelling Jennie. The other way is nice too, but I always like names that are unique. I know a Jennie that is bold, sporty, and fun to be around, and it fits her very nicely!

Jennie Elizabeth Eisenhower is the eldest child of Julie Nixon Eisenhower (daughter of the late President Richard Nixon) and David Eisenhower (grandson of the late President Dwight Eisenhower). She's also a fledgling actress, appearing briefly in the movie 'Mona Lisa Smile'.

Jeanette Jerome, Lady Randolph Churchill, known exclusively as Jennie, was the mother of Sir Winston Churchill.

When my sister Jennifer (who is in her mid-20's) was elementary age she chose to spell her name this way. Probably because you don't see it nearly as often.

My great-great-grandmother's name was Jennie. I'm not sure if Jennie was short for Jane or Jennifer, but either way I guess it's cute. I still prefer Jen or Jenna as nicknames for Jennifer, though.

I prefer this over Jenny, but it's too short for a real name. Cute nickname though.

There's a lovely 1948 fantasy film called Portrait of Jennie. The title character, Jennie Appleton, is played by actress Jennifer Jones.
I prefer the spelling "Jennie" to the modern spelling, "Jenny." It's cuter and more unique.

Jennie is such an adorable name. It's a lot prettier and less common than Jenny, which is usually a nickname for Jennifer anyways. I personally like Jennie as a name on its own, as that's its original usage. For some reason Jennifer never really sounded like a name to me, but I adore Jennie!
