Thinking about the name

Ginnie

English origin

A charming, literary variant of Ginny, popularized in part by Vladimir Nabokov's 'Lolita' (where the protagonist's love interest is nicknamed Dolores/Lolita, but 'Ginnie' appears in cultural discourse around that era). Ginnie feels whimsical and storybook-like, with vintage appeal.
