[Opinions] Joanna and Dinah
Replies
I pronounce Dinah as 'DYE-nuh' like you do. I'd assume 'DEEN-uh' was Dina, which I don't like much.
Dinah is lovely and underused. I also love Diana :-)
I suggest:
Dinah Bryony
Dinah Gabrielle
Dinah Leonie
Dinah Magdalen
Dinah Meredith
Dinah Mariel
Dinah Patience
Dinah Scarlet
Dinah Sophia
Dinah Summer
Dinah Valentine

I think Joanna is a simply lovely name! It's so pretty and feminine!
Dinah is alright, not one of favorites but then in general D names aren't my favorite. I reminds me first of Dinah in the Bible (and I think there was some sexual scandal related to her), and then it makes me think of a kind, gradmotherly, African-American southern lady. So the name has good and bad connections for me. I always get it mixed up with Delilah which I also dislike because of the character of the woman with this name in the Bible. Isn't it funny how one bad accossiation could ruin the whole image of a name in your mind (take Adolph for example, almost everyone thinks of Adolph Hitler).
Bunny, Gigi, Chloris, Wilma, Darleen, Eartha

I love Johanna (yo-HAH-nah), too. :-)
I kind of like Dina (w/ this spelling) as long as it's pronounced "Dee-na". It's not a name I would use though. Dinah ("Die-na") always makes me think of that "Dinah, won't you blow your horn" song, which I detest. Joanna is a pretty name, but not one I would use. I definitely prefer it over Dinah though.
