I love the name, but I'll never use it because of the association with the movie. I don't want people to learn that my daughter's name is Juno and think, "Oh, that pregnant girl in that movie. Huh, low standards." Plus, the goddess association and the town of Juneau might be detractors. It's a shame that such a beautiful name must go to waste.

I've loved it for years. I've hesitated to suggest it as a name because it was so obscure. Then came the movie and now I'm hesitant to suggest it because it's so associated with the movie. Aaargh!"joon" names in general are very pleasing to my ears: Juno, Junia, June, Juniper.

It's not a good association for me: Juno is a very jealous/spiteful goddess. Plus at the moment it's *so* closely linked with that movie.

I love the name Juno. It's a shame people associate it with the movie, but I don't think that would be much of a problem in the future.

I love it. One of my all time favorite combos is Juno Ophelia.

I think it's neat, but I probably wouldn't use it.I can imagine this making the top 1000 this year or next year though.

I don't like it at all. I hated the film so that probably doesn't help, but I don't think its very feminine sounding at all. I'd much prefer June :]
