Is Your Name Jennifer, Jenny, Jen, Gin or Similar?
I have always known that Jennifer was the most popular girl's name in the US in 1963 and for many years after.
In college, there were six (6) Jennifers on my hall Freshman year :|. I have lived with two Jennifers. anddddddddd. I am positive that at the reunion, half the people I met were named some variety of Jen. Is your name Jennifer or something similar and if so, how does it impact your life? Do you have whiplash from always thinking someone is calling your name? |
This is the exact reason I shortened my name from Gin to literally just G. There are so many Jens around here that all hang out together that they all use last names, but there are still people that will say "Hey Jen" and a dozen people turn around!
When I go to Smoothie King to get a smoothie, they always right my name on the cup as "Jen" and not "Gin"...even when I annunciate beyone normal vocal skills. Now I just tell them my name is Steve. I get some funny looks, but they don't mispell it any more! :winky: |
I was ALMOST a Jennifer but my mom changed her mind late in her pregnancy. I am glad that I ended up with the name I did; I have about 6 or more friends with a variation of the name Jennifer.
:sparklyheart: |
When I order soemthing like at Starbux, I tell them my name is Pip. Its useless to say Jen. Everyone in the damm store is always named Jen.

Interesting. I only know one Jennifer and I don't have any Jennifers in my family, nor have I ever dated a Jennifer.

i used a circle over my "i" throughout the eighties i think ALSO! the ESPRIT "e" was big for a while too |

my dad regularly gives me 2 "f"s and one "n" "Jeniffer" ALSO i had a neighbor named Jenny that always called me Kimberly or Tiffany i felt like she must not consider me qualified for jennyhood |
Quote:
I have dated 2 Jennifers. I think it was narcissistic and maybe having the same name seemed enough in common at the time. |

no Mr. Jenny is just paranoid about having "her business" on the internet. it was like pulling teeth to get her to let me have a picture of us together on my facebook, and she herself has NO facebook OR bfp login sooooooo i can pretty much blab about her all i want and she'll never know |
Ya know...
I think the only Jennifers i know are on here. I don't even remember any in school. But, there are a lot online. BTW...i absolutely adore that name. It is so very pretty. Always thought so, all of the variations. Maybe i'll join the club and change my name. |
I have always gone by Jennifer, never Jen or Jenny, even when I was little. Everyone I have ever been close with has always called me Jen and I just let them be. I only correct people when they call me Jenny.
In undergrad our group of friends called me by my last name as we had another Jennifer in our group (she was also called by her last name). Until about 10th grade I was called Jennifer F. or "Jennifer with the red hair" by teachers and peers since at one time we had 8 in our class. Having this name was annoying while in school, notsomuch anymore. |
oh, this made me giggle!!!
I am not a "Jennifer", but I have 2 "Jen's" in my immediate family. In grade school, there were 2. In high school there were 4 or 5. |
