jena

Watching American idol and the girls name is Jena pronounced like Gina. Why?I mean I get that it's not Jenna but that's just bad.

    I have never seen or heard of Jena = Gina?weird.

    She was pretty annoyed that Randy called her Jenna...I'm assuming most people make that mistake.

  • My LO is nn Lina (like Tina) and I can't tell you all the times we hear lye-na. So then I say, like Lena Dunham..which brings me to Jena. Definitely, confusing spelling choice but I sympathize.

  • One of my best friends is Gina, spelled that way. You would not believe how often people misspell it with a J. Makes no earthly sense.

    Thus girls name is pronounced like Gina but spelled Jena...I can't figure it out

  • She should be annoyed at her mother, not at Randy.

  • It reminds me of the 40 year old virgin, when that girl's name is Gina but pronounces it jy-nuh. I'd post a pic but I'm on mobile. :((
