Alternative names for Gina

Hayrock · January 2016

Help. So dh and I have decided not to find out what baby #2 will be. Our first was a boy named Jake. Dh grandfather was Jake and his middle name is my dads. We have a name if baby #2 if he is a boy with dh and my moms family names in there. But my if it is a girl we got nothing.
We had some ideas when I was prego with our first that was family names but it was after my mil and my mom. Sorry for all the crazy naming after people.
So to get to the point. I am looking for a girl name idea that will be some sort of honor to my mom. Her name is Gina and I am not a fan. Anyone have any ideas?

does your mom have a middle name that you could use?

Regina and Angelina came to mind first

Her middle name is suette. It was suppose to be Suzette but they forgot the z when filling out the birth certificate.

i just threw it out on another thread, but i literally rarely hear my name anywhere and i don't know why. i really like it. (not to toot my own horn... or actually my parent's, i guess. they chose well. haha!)

it's WAY better than gina.

but definitely similar... as i do get called gina occasionally. people are getting it right more often now though. finally.

Gia

Gia, Gianna and Eugenia get my vote. I know a Eugenia and her nn is Genie. Except her dad who always called her Eugie (like "you-gee") and his name was Eugene. Really sweet.
