It's never become popular, has it? In spite of the princess.
I'm not sure how to pronounce it, pehaps that's the trouble. Some say U-jeanie.and others, U-janie.
I've never actually heard it with a French pronounciation, it's not on the radar, here.

Some find it difficult to pronounce.
I prefer Eugenia though.

I do like both the original French and the "British French" pronunciations. :)

I think it is kind of cute. It is a little too nicknamey, cutesy for my taste.

Eh, I like it more than Eugenia, but I'm not a fan. I dislike Eu- name, in general, and Eugene, in particular. Eugenie never stood much of a chance with me, I guess.
It also makes me think of eugenics and engines.

I think of the princess, then eugenics. I dunno. I think it's kinda ugly but not in an endearing way, like Eugene is.

I don't like it, sorry. The "Eu" part looks and sounds unattractive and it makes me think of the genie from aladdin!

I like it, but I'm confused by all the different pronunciations. How do you pronounce it?

I prefer the French: yoo-zhay-NEE. It tends to be read as yoo-JEE-nee too non-namenerds here in the States, so oftentimes when I say it out loud I end up glossing it too sound like yoo-ZHEN-ee to try to ease people into the pronunciation. I think it sounds pretty either as yoo-zhay-NEE or yoo-ZHEN-ee.

I love Eugenie! It's refined but spunky.
