[Opinions] Jennet
WDYT of Jennet (JEN-et)? It's the name of the heroine in the Scottish story Tam Lin (or one of the versions of the name; it seems there are a dozen versions of the tale). I used the name Jennet mn Lynn for a character; not sure I'd use it for a kid, ppl might mistake it for Janet, I name I don't like.

I like it because, as you say, I don't care for Janet. I think Jennet is a nice, fresh alternative to Jennifer. I personally would give it a spunkier mn than Lynn. What about:
Jennet Skye
Jennet Rain
Jennet Faye
Jennet Jacinda (she might end up JJ, though)
Jennet Janelle (ditto)
Jennet Guinevere
Jennet Belinda
Jennet Larissa
Jennet Liberty
Jennet Araminta
Just a few that came to mind, certainly many other choices that might suit you better. Also I thought you might find this interesting:

I do NOT find this information to be detrimental to using the name.

doens't Jennet meana young horse (or some other kind of animal)?
to me it wouldbe kind of like naming a kid (or characer) Foal. but if it's just a character, and you really like the name, go for it.

Here you go. And I don't think I'd give a daughter of mine the name, it's just for a character.
