If my nickname was Genna, how would you pronounce it in english and spanish? I need to know!!
Lovely name. In English it’s pronounced the same way as Jenna. Idk about Spanish, but Forvo has someone who is Italian saying it. Sounds the same as English with just a little more stress on the second syllable.
I would imagine in French it’s pronounced Zhen-na because the French version of Eugenia is Eugenie (oo-ZHEN-ee).
