The Jennifer on the left is me in 2005, and the Jennifer on the right is me in 1968, not exactly the sexy Jenns who will eventually inhabit this this blogspace. But that's okay; I have other talents, and I have decided to capitalize on those.<br /><span style="color:#ffccff;">-</span><br />Is it narcissistic to devote an entire blog to famous people named Jennifer?<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />I'll let others decide, but here's the deal: I love my name, and I can't imagine bearing any other. I promise not to get into maternal issues here, but naming me Jennifer was the one thing my mother did right.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />The rest of this blog will be devoted to famous Jennifers: stories, press releases, photos, interesting facts, all ripped from the web. I might even add a little snark (sorry, I can't help it--it's just in my nature).<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />My other Jennifer blog, <a href="http://youjennifer.blogspot.com/"><strong>You Jennifer</strong></a>, will focus on other ordinary Jennifers doing interesting things; in a way, that blog will be more fun to develop because I'll be offering a space and a spotlight (albeit a small one) to my not-so-famous sisters. Alas, the famous Jennifers probably won't give a hoot what goes on in my small neck of the web.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />But my first name is a gold mine of information: when one Googles <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=Jennifer&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&amp;amp;amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7GWYA"><strong>Jennifer</strong></a>, Google returns 139,000,000 hits, with <a href="http://www.jenniferlopez.com/"><strong>Jennifer Lopez</strong></a> sitting on top of the list. I often wonder what makes Jennifer Lopez so special that Google would crown her queen of Jennifer? Of course, she's breathtakingly lovely, and I suppose she can sing and act, but, for the life of me, I can only conjure up one word associated with her: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bennifer"><strong>Bennifer</strong></a>.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />Yeah, yeah, I know; that was years ago, and Jlo has moved on and married <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Anthony"><strong>Marc Anthony</strong></a>, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Affleck"><strong>Ben Affleck</strong></a> has married <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Garner"><strong>Jennifer Garner</strong></a>, another Jennifer (like a moth headed for fire, he just can't seem to stay away from a Jennifer).<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />Hollywood romances are much too confusing for me, but I promise to do my research for my blog posts.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />As of today, Jennifer Lopez (with quotation marks) returns <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Jennifer+Lopez%22&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&amp;amp;amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7GWYA"><strong>13,500,000 Google hits</strong></a>; on the other hand, Jennifer Semple Siegel (with quotation marks), my full name, returns <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Jennifer+Semple+Siegel%22&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&amp;amp;amp;amp;ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7GWYA"><strong>643 Google hits</strong></a>. I'm not complaining; after all, I'm not young, I don't sing well, I can't act, I'm not slinky and sleek, and despite that I still have managed a small presence on the web.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />I digress. Back to the name Jennifer.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />According to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer"><strong>Wikipedia</strong></a>,<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br /><em>Jennifer became a common first name for females in English-speaking countries during the 20th century. The name Jennifer is a </em><a title="Cornish language" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornish_language"><em>Cornish</em></a><em> variant of </em><a title="Guinevere" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinevere"><em>Guinevere</em></a><em>, deriving ultimately from </em><a title="Proto-Celtic" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto-Celtic"><em>Proto-Celtic</em></a><em> *vindo-</em><a title="Ishara" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishara"><em>siabraid</em></a><em> "white phantom," via Brythonic *vino-hibirā (Irish find-abair), Welsh gwen-hwyfar, Cornish Jennifer. The name is also sometimes derived from the Old English words jenefer, genefer and jinifer, which were all variants of Juniper and used to describe the Juniper tree.</em><br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-<br /></span><em>Prior to </em><a title="1906" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1906"><em>1906</em></a><em> the name was fairly uncommon, but it became popular after </em><a title="George Bernard Shaw" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Bernard_Shaw"><em>George Bernard Shaw</em></a><em> used it for the main female character in </em><a title="The Doctor's Dilemma" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Doctor%27s_Dilemma"><em>The Doctor's Dilemma</em></a><em>. It gained even more popularity in the 1970's. Though its popularity is often attributed to the </em><a title="Love Story (novel)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Story_%28novel%29"><em>novel</em></a><em> and film </em><a title="Love Story (1970 film)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Story_%281970_film%29"><em>Love Story</em></a><em>, Jennifer was already the #3 name for girls in 1969, the year before the book and movie were released. Jennifer remained the single most popular name given to baby girls in the </em><a title="United States" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States"><em>United States</em></a><em> from </em><a title="1970" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970"><em>1970</em></a><em> to </em><a title="1984" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1984"><em>1984</em></a><em>. Since the early </em><a title="1990s" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1990s"><em>1990s</em></a><em> it has remained common, but considerably less so. Diminutives include Jen (Jenn), Jenny (Jennie), and Jenna.</em><br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />So it's no surprise that so many stars (born between 1970-1984) bear the name "Jennifer" (see link list on right).<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domaining"><strong>domainer</strong></a>, I had a great interest in snagging the Jennifer.com domain, but quickly discovered I could never afford my own name, for I have arrived too late to the domaining game. However, I was able to register Jennifer.tc and Jennifers.tv, both of which will eventually direct to this blog.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />I have also registered some Jennifer typos:<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />Jennifir.com<br />Jennifr.com<br />Jennifrr.com<br />Jenniifer.com<br />Jnnfer.com<br />Jnnfr.com<br />Jnnifer.com<br />Jnnifr.com<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />These domains are not for sale; they will also eventually direct to this site.<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />Until next time,<br /><span style="color:#ffcccc;">-</span><br />Jennifer<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5683556359478166985-9208990239099547148?l=www.famousjennifers.com' alt='' /></div>Jennifernoreply@blogger.com1
