Georgina. I had to look hard for a name starting with G, hanging on the trees and finally found that one of my husband's cousins had named their daughter Georgina. So, my trusty book tells me that Georgina is the feminine form of George and has been in regular use from the 18th century, with it being originally favoured in Scotland. In the US the form Georgia is preferred Georgie and Gina are diminutives that can be used but Gina is now also used as a first name. Famous Georgina's are; Georgina Haig, Australian actress, Georgina Sweet, Australian zoologist, Georgina Mace, British scientist.
