Confused?

A little boy in a preschool sports class:

Jean-O

Pronounced like the name Gino.  I'm thinking maybe the parents didn't know how to spell the name? So they made it up? I'd think that Gino would be unique enough (in our area) without having to make up a totally weird spelling.

I actually like when Gina is occasionally spelled Jena, but this one not so much! Jeno (closer equivalent) might be a nicer combo of the two!

I hate when Gina is spelled Jena because my name is Jena pronounced Jenna. lol I'm so used to it being mispronounced, I answer to Gina without even giving it a second thought haha
