When I took French in high school, the teacher would always call the students by what their names were equivalent to in French (for instance, William would be called Guillaume), or, if there was no exact equivalent, as close as she could come, or, if she couldn't even come close, allow them to choose a French name. Anyway, she said that my name in French was pronounced like you're pronouncing Jenise, Denise with a J. I always thought it was pretty. I really like Jenise.
Edited to add: I think it's a lot better than Tara, which to me seems, not ugly, but insubstantial.
