But never a girl named Johnny.

Yeah. Incredibly mean parents. Just wtf?

[–] samoanjoes (58585) 3 years ago

I was thinking that maybe it was a nickname of some sort, like Charlotte = Charlie, but I got nothing.

Mispronounced Jenny?

At least genetically the parents looked after her.

[–] samoanjoes (58585) 3 years ago

Maybe that. Maybe she had a friend with a weird accent who pronounced her name like that when she was a kid and she stuck with it.

It's certainly unique. For a woman anyway. Perhaps that's all it's about. Making her stand out from other female actors. Probably confuses people though. Or casting agents think she's a trans woman but kept her name and they'll get Internet points if they cast her.

Top tier strategy by the parents.

Yeah it is weird.

It makes her stand out which is a benefit for an actress. Better than being another woman named Michael.

I'd guess her nickname would be "Red".

I knew a woman named Johnna.
