I prefer Georgia over Georgina. Georgiana is also pretty.
What a shame you can't choose the name yourself!

On the show "Dead Like Me" the female girl is named George. Not Georgia or Georgine or anything. I like it, it's kinda funky.

Actually her name is Georgia, they just call her George (I am obsessed with that show).

On that note, I love Georgia. :)

ah ok, I've only seen the odd episode, but I really like the show. Her little sister has a boy's name too, doesn't she?

I like that idea. Like the model James. I also once knew a girl named Shane.

I love the name Georgiana. I think it's incredibly elegant and sweet, and it reminds me of Pride and Prejudice. Maybe with the nickname Georgie? I wouldn't use Georgie on its own. Georgia is REALLY pretty too.

i really like the name georgia. in elem. school i had a best friend with the name so i don't think i could use it. not any bad connotation, it's just when you've known someone for so long with the name it would be weird to use it.

i also really like georgie.

Georgina probably... I still have a soft spot for Georgiana, Mr Darcy's little sister, and Georgette from Georgette Heyer. :)

You could always just name her George.
In Nancy Drew books she has a friend who's name is George and she's a girl.
I think that would be really cute.

My Sister's bestfriend is named Georgina and they call her Gigi, she was also named after her grandfather George. She named her daughter Jorja (sounds the same as Georgia) because she's a BIG CSI fan :) I like Jorja and Georgia :) Good luck!!

Everytime I think of the name Georgiana, I hear Caroline Bingley exclaiming "Ah! Dear Georgiana!" in the 1995 BBC adaption of Pride & Prejudice. That aside, I do like the name. Georgia is probably my favourite of the lot, though.

I also like Georgiana, with one n. Georgianna looks like you're trying to hard. I also like the spellings Giorgia or Giorgiana (Italian).

I dont like the name George or any name based off of it. what about your side of the family? do you have any family names you can use from your side?

I don't like the other two. Georgette is okay.

Don't like George. It even looks odd to me.

I like Georgianna...its actually from the pride and prejudice novel by Jane Austen. The minute I heard it, I loved it...it's classic!

I was going to suggest the exact same thing. :)

I like Georgia best, also like Georgiana, and Georgette is nice too! although overall i wouldn't choose any of them, if it's a girl couldn't you get out of it by saying "not a first born boy" or something? but if tradition is important, go with it! or maybe compromise on a middle name of george or something. I do like Georgia though!

I like them all! This is a huge surpise for me, but after reading them through this list, I like them. My fave is Georgianna.
