I love the name Denny but don't like Denise - so we decided to name her Denny/Dennie. But we cannot agree on the spelling.
Which do you like better? DH's grandmother was Jennie (her formal name - not a nickname) so he likes Dennie. My aunt is a Denise but always went by Denny, so I like Denny. |

| I'd go with Dennie just to help avoid a little bit of the association with Denny's the restaurant. |

| I'm sorry, op but, the name "Denny" or "Dennie" for a girl isn't pretty no matter how you spell it. I don't like Denise either but, I would give her the name Denny as a middle name and a more feminine name as a first name so she can decide if she likes to be thought that she is a dude. |

| If you love the name Denny, wait until you have a boy. This is not a good name for a girl, OP. It's not feminine in the least. |

I love the name for a girl! I think I prefer the spelling "Dennie" - not sure why - it looks prettier to me.
Great choice! Unusual without being weird and so pretty! |

| I like Denise -- I think Huxtable -- but Denny (how either Denny or Dennie would be pronounced) association is the restaurant. If I were introduced to a girl named Denny/Dennie, I'd assumed either short for Denise or that I'd misheard Jenny/Jennie. |

| I'd go with Eden and then use Dennie as a nickname. |

| How about Eden or Nadine or Dina, and then Dennie for a nickname? |

Thanks for the responses but we already decided on Denny/Dennie. We are just debating which spelling.
So even if you hate the name - which spelling do you hate the most? |
