Sometimes...

Sometimes I think there are too many people out there named Jennifer. :)

YES THERE ARE.

But there's only one Kareila. :)

Nope. There are two.
The other is, as I recall, a writer. They've "spoken" online.

Actually, there are two. Some kind of freak accident.

Oddly, I think I only presently know two Jennifers, and one is someone in one of my classes, whom I barely know.

I also have a friend named Gen, but that's short for Genevieve, not Gennifer. :)

Hell, I've dated more than two Jennifers! :)

I have never dated any Jennifers. ;)

My best friend for many years was named Jennifer, but I haven't heard from her in a couple of years. She's (or was, last I knew) in Arizona.

Genevieve is old english and it actually is the same name as Jennifer just time has altered it. If you study names any or even look at name books in any great detail then you'll see that Genevieve and Jennifer are part of the same root name. Just as we can trace our ancestors hundreds of years back they can trace names back that far if not further to discover where the name started and what form it had.

Indeed they have the same root, but they are still two different names today. :)

Just TODAY my paycheck was misplaced because someone confused me with another Jennifer. GRR. When I started working here there was only one other one, now there's 5.

That's because Jennifer is a much overused name :)
