I never liked this name, but I'm just now starting to. :]
I don't think I'd use a nickname for it. That's the problem I have, though - I love it, but it seems a little too much for a little girl. A nickname, at least for sometimes, would be lovely, but I can't think of one I like.
I don't know any Virginias, but I know of one. I don't know her age, but she's elderly, I'd imagine. And there's V.C. Andrews (although her real name is
Cleo Virginia, I believe), of course.
I don't really think there would be too many virgin jokes. Most people, around here at least (but of course, this is West
Virginia...) think of the state, not the meaning of the name.
I can't say I'm a fan of
Virginia Plum. :\ It sounds like a plum grown in
Virginia to me.
