[Opinions] Re: WDYTO Vanessa?
in reply to a message by Jacqueline
I don't think Vanessa is old-fashioned at all. I like Vanessa because of its meaning, it being a V name, and because it reminds me of Vanessa Carlton. I think it's cute, but it's versatile and will age well.
I wouldn't use any nns for Vanessa if I had a daughter named this besides the occasional affectionate Van or Nessa or Ness.
I don't like Jenna at all. It makes me think of names like Tiffany and other trendy 80's names.
I like Jamie. For some reason, I always have. I like it as a girl's full name. I think of the Weezer song "Jamie". =)
