[Opinions] Joon (f)
What are your thoughts on the rare English feminine name Joon? It can be a phonetical spelling of June as well as be a pet form of Juniper.Is the name more of a name for a young (teenage) girl, or would it suit an adult woman as well? I don't live in an anglophone country myself, so I can't quite tell how this rare name would be perceived in general. Personally, the name reminds me a little bit of Jools (as in, Jamie Oliver's wife), which I know is probably either a variant spelling of Jules or a pet form of Julia (or even Juliet). It seems that Latin Ju- can become Joo- in English. Jools seems to carry her name well (I don't think it looks weird on an adult woman), so I feel like Joon wouldn't look weird on an adult woman either. But then again, I'm a foreigner, so the name might be looked upon very differently by the average person in the English-speaking world.
