Share Your Thoughts 4 Comments Jean Oct 30 at 10:19 am Unless it’s about to trend, don’t name your baby girl “Jean”. It’s my name unfortunately. No one under 60 recognizes as a name. All those pre-60 spell it “Gene“, which is a guy name. And in Canada it means John.

Reply Jean Feb 2 at 11:49 am Jean was my husband’s grandmother’s name. She was an amazing lady, science teacher in small town Georgia. I like that she can choose to go by Jeannie if she prefers. Reply Margaret Jean Jul 11 at 6:26 am My mom gave me my 1st name in honor of her mother. My grandmother died when my mom was a little girl. My mom gave me my middle name, Jean, for no particular reason; at least, she never gave me one. However, I grew up being call either Jean or Jeannie. I still use my middle name the most, except for legal purposes. Reply Share your thoughts on the name Jean Cancel ReplyYour email address will not be published.
