Pronounced June-ah

Opinions wanted!

EDT: My husband is not fond of June, Juniper, Juno, Jora, or Luna, and I don't like Jauna.

    For a girl I assume? What's wrong with June?

    I thought it was a pretty variant. And yes it's a girl name.

    I don't like it. It sounds like you didn't think June was good enough, and had to add an a to the end.

    I just meant everyone's going to mis-hear it as Juno. ETA: but I do like Juno better than Juna. Also, Juna kind of looks like you forgot the A in Juana.

    Oh ok I understand now. I'm not too terribly concerned about that. For example, my name Kristin is misheard all the time, it doesn't bother me.

    I know a little Juna, she's adorable.  It's OK, NMS, but tolerable.

    Is this the same as Junia?  I have a friend with a DD named that and I think it is precious, but I wouldn't pronounce Juna the same.

    It looks kind of like a typo for June to me. LOVE June.

    Love June. Juniper and Juno are also really nice, but Juna just doesn't float my boat (weird how one letter can do that). Pp mentioned Juana and IMO that's a really nice alternative.

    I am sitting here trying to decide if I like it, I am not sure, to be honest. I do like pp mention of Junia, I think that name is really pretty.

    There is a writer named Djuna Barnes, and I always liked the way it looked. I'm pretty sure Djuna is pronounced "Juna".

    My husband says he always thought it was a little weird naming a child after a month, but that he really liked the variant.

    Personally, I'm not a fan. I prefer June. I'd also be afraid people would see it and pronounce it Jun-uh. What about Jenna? Another one I really like is Gemma.

    I may be a loner, but I love it.  I don't think it sounds made up (and usually I don't like variants like this).  I can so picture meeting a little girl at the playground named Juna, and similar meeting an adult.

    Our top name is Juniper Ada and I imagine we will call her Juna at some point... I think it is cute for a baby and ages well.

    Me: 33, DH: 32

    TTC: 2 years
    Fertility blood tests all normal
    Tilted uterus
    3 day ultrasound 17 follicles
    HSG: 11/13/13- tubes open
    DH SA: SUPER sperm (145 million, 84% motility, 22% morphology)
    All infection disease and immunity blood tests NORMAL
    FIRST IUI May 2014: 100 mg Clomid days 5-9, third ultrasound CD 13 revealed four follicles 27, 24 and 20 and 13mm. Trigger shot May 28 with IUI May 29 and 30 (fingers crossed) - BFN started spotting 11DPO :(

    IUI #2 B2B 6/23 and 6/24, three mature eggs and 130 million sperm! FX this is the month!  BFN 7/8

    3rd cycle benched due to cysts - TI with OPK tests -  BFN

    3rd mediated cycle: Clomid+Trigger+TI  (three follies left side, one on right as usual....what the hell right ovary get it together and produce some damn follicles!) 7DPO progesterone level 43 with NO suppositories YAY for a natural strong ovulation. Beta canceled started spotting 13DPO - Third time is not a CHARM! 14 day cycle WTF! Everything looks normal - RE wants to start injectables next cycle so this cycle I'm benched

    Officially benched until March....but still plan on trying the baking soda douche due to my excessive and thick CM

    JANUARY SIGGY CHALLENGE...This is so me!

    Love this man....he was so before his time in his thoughts and ideas about the world....been obsessed about him lately bringing it back to the early 90s.

    I love Juniper! You have a great name picked out. Wish my husband out go for it but I think Juna is my favorite anyways. :)

    Why are you bumping the post so much?

    I think June is great. Juna looks made up but if that's what you like use it. Juno is NMS at all.

    I don't see people bumping posts here generally. There's no rule saying not to. I was just wondering.
