I can't wait to tell my friend. We're 34, so I doubt her mom had seen this in a book all that time ago. Plus they're also from a really small town in Canada, so I can't imagine she would have run into anyone there with that name. </p> <p>In any case, they are all beautiful names! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042847 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 21:01:29 +0000 mrsjazz 2042847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've known two Janaes, pronounced Juh-nay and that is the spelling and pronunciation I like most. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042782 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 20:15:25 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2042782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I just met something named Janea and she pronounces it without the a! </p> <p>@Mrs.KMM: umm maybe you're reading the pronunciation differently? I would never say Jonna that way! </p> <p>@Astro Bee: I saw it in a baby name book while pregnant and immediately loved it! Just met someone at work with that name :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042762 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 20:03:48 +0000 spaniellove 2042762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I taught a Janaya and it was definitely pronounced "ja-nay-uh". For "ja-nay" I'd stick with Janae!</p> <p>ETA: Although come to think of it, Danae was "da-nay-uh". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042726 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:39:01 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2042726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For a pronunciation of Juh-nay, I'd spell it Jonna! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042722 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:36:43 +0000 Astro Bee 2042722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My best friend is called Janaya - pronounced Ja-nay-uh. </p> <p>I've never seen that name anywhere else. She told me that her mom just made it up. I usually call her Naya - nay-ya. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042715 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:33:11 +0000 littlejoy 2042715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think Janae, pronouned juh-nay is the easiest, and would get the least amount of mispronunciations. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042712 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:31:45 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2042712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I knew a Juh-nay spelled Jayne. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042693 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:24:08 +0000 loveisstrange 2042693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I knew a girl all through school who was Ganay, pronounced Juh-nay. I think her mom spelled it with the G because their last name started with one. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-spelling-2#post-2042668 Tue, 27 Jan 2015 19:13:14 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2042668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just for fun!</p> <p>I love this name. What spelling is better? And which pronunciation? </p>
