As an aside, I think that a lot of female's middle names are Lynn (mine included). It goes with lots of first names. But, again, that could be an age/regional thing.

Like I said, I grew up with a lot of Jennifers and I was born in 1970. In Maryland.
I was born in 1963 amd my parents were from TN and VA. Almost every female I know has the middle name Lynn or Lynne or similar too. lol.

Why Jenny? I honestly have no idea. I guess I just liked the way it sounded.

I like Jenny actually. Up until I started working everyone called me Jenny, then I had a boss named Jenny, so I was forced to go with Jennifer and it stuck. My family and friends from childhood call me Jenny. It seems sweeter.

Does Genevieve count as a Jennifer?

Thankfully my name is somewhat uncommon - unless you were born in the late 70s and your parents were fans of the Looking Glass, or you were born in the 90s and your parents liked the show Moesha. (Interestingly, Brandy Norwood was also born in the late 70s)
Actually Jennifer comes from Guenevere. I bet its closely related to Genevieve, which is a really cool name btw!
