Or Gennifer (as in Flowers).

Or Jenifer.
But, yes, Jennifer is the "ordinary" form. In the Internet Movie Database
there are 44 people going by the name Jenifer (or both Jennifer and Jenifer)
4 using Jenniffer, 3 using Jeniffer, 1 using Gennifer -- and some of these
may represent typos rather than genuine names -- but there are many hundreds
with the name Jennifer.

Now all we need is a Jenniphur or Jennipher or Jeniphur or Jenipher (or the
same, except with G).

Bingo!
The correct spelling of "Jennifer" is "Jennifer."
The correct spelling of "Jeniffer" is "Jeniffer."
The correct spelling of "Gennifer" is "Gennifer."
The most common spelling of names pronounced like "Jennifer" is
indeed "Jennifer."

Normally, it's "Jennifer", but it varies with
the person who wears the moniker. It could
as easily be "Genifur" or "Gennifer".

I think "Guinevere" has to be considered a different name, even though
Jennifer is derived from it. Similarly, "Mary" and "Maria" are not the
same name, nor are either of them the same as "Miriam".

Well really, it is not necessarily Jenny or Steves choice, but their parents.
That being said, I would say Jennifer is the most common spelling.

Not so in the US of A; here, we can change our names with no special
problem. My sister was born Diane McGregor, and she decided to spell
her name "Dianne". I was born Stephen McGregor, and now go by
"Stephen MacGregor". It's spelled that way on all legal documents
now, though my father and brother still spell the last name without
the "A".

Not so. Under the common law as understood in the United States, you
can change your name simply by changing it, and getting other people
to go along with it. Going through the courts can save some hassles,

In the U.S. of A. (I suspect this is even true of Louisiana, but I can't
find any reliable information on this) you can generally change your name
without court permission.

I don't know about Louisiana, but can tell you that Charles may, if he
wishes, change his name here in Ireland without legal formalities. It
adds a little complication to applying for certain official documents
such as passports or driving licences; the issuing authority has to be
satisfied that the applicant is generally known by the new or revised
name.

That's so in UK, too, though there may be problems with convincing banks
etc. that you really are the same person as you used to be. It might
therefore be prudent (though it's not essential) to "execute a deed
poll" formalising the change in a legally recognised way. To change a
baptismal name is not ecclesiastically acceptable, though people often
add a name at confirmation. "Court permission" has never been needed,

I believe, though, that outside of the Anglo-American countries
permission of a court or other governmental entity is required, thought it
may in practice usually be granted (though I understand that some European
countries place general restrictions on the names that can be chosen for
children, so I assume that similar restrictions would be placed on adult
name-changers). Apparently at least some US states do not allow prisoners
(= US euph. "prison inmates") to change their names by court order while
still serving out their sentences; but presumably they can still adopt a
new name without court permission, and this will become their new name to
the extent that the common-law right to change one's name applies.

Perhaps I didn't use "willy-nilly" correctly since the COD gives the
meaning, "whether one likes it or not". I was using it to mean "just
for the hell of it because one wants to", which, I think, is closer to
its true meaning. I wouldn't say the word was used often enough to
acquire a skunked status.

There are many spellings.
Jennifer is most common, but there is an actress who spells it Ginnifer.

Origin of the name Jennifer:
Cornish derivation of Guinevere, which is from the Welsh Gwenhwyfar
(fair lady). Until the 20th century, Jennifer was largely a regional
name. Now, however, it has become one of the most popular names in
the English-speaking world.

"Jeniffer", but they each have only one film credit and no biographical
details, so I'm not sure how confident they are that they're two
different people. The two movies in question were both made in India,
but are in different languages.
The IMDB also knows of a Yeniffer Behrens, a Venezuelan-born actress
who also goes by Jeniffer Behrens. According to an IMDB trivia
item about her, she thought Jeniffer was her actual name until she
applied for a driver's license and the clerk pointed out that her
birth certificate showed it as Yeniffer. "Her parents were also
surprised", it says, "and then confirmed that the unique spelling
was actually due to a typographical error committed at the hospital
when she was born."
Finally there is a Philippine-born actress named Jennifer Lee, who
they have "Jeniffer Lee" as an alternate name for. But they only show
that name being used once, so it sounds as though it was just a typo
in some credits.

It adds that Jennifer is a Cornish form, cognate with the Welsh form

'Despite the name's similarity to the Old English words "jenefer",

"Piggies", and that is on YouTube.
You might be surprised at the type of songs Bikel recorded. How about
traditional Celtic folk songs like "Carlton Weaver", sea chantey "Haul
Away Joe", and Canadian "Springhill Mine Disaster" (Folksinger's
Choice Album, 1964).
"Jennifer Jupiter" was on "A New Day" (1969).

cassette, and reel-to-reel...three terms that my grandsons would
probably not understand.
I assume "cassette" includes 8-tracks because that's what I owned.
(Another term foreign to my grandsons)
"Jennifer Jupiter" was also covered by The Sandpipers, Joel Grey,
Kazmi with Rickies, and Watoo Watoo.
I associate The Sandpipers with "Guantanamera". I saw Joel Grey in
Chicago in a production of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really
Trying", but the other two groups are unfamiliar to me.
Evidently, Kazmi with Rickies is known for their recording of a "Jesus
Christ Super Star". Watoo Watoo is listed as a "French indiepop
band", whatever that is.

know "vinyl." What they may not recognize is the archaic term "LP."
When a guest artist has a new album out, Colbert normally holds up the
vinyl version, not the CD version (if one has been released).

Ceremonies in *Cabaret*, which he reprised in the 1972 film.
He utterly steals the show in whatever Broadway production he is involved
in. He is currently represented as the director of *Fiddler on the Roof
in Yiddish*, which has just moved from "downtown" to a Midtown Theater
District theater (though apparently not one classified as a "Broadway
house," presumably meaning it won't be considered in this year's Tony
Awards).

read said it was released on vinyl, cassette, and reel-to-reel. I
owned an 8-track of the album, so I know for a fact it was released on
8-track. Ergo, the word "cassette" must include 8-tracks in that
context.
You constantly whine about another poster here not posting anything of
consequence, but most of your responses are querulous contradictions
of no consequence to the discussion.
Peter T. Daniels
that of their omission.
8-tracks had a very short lifetime. They were objects of hilarity even
when they could still be found installed in cars.

conclusions on the basis of limited to no evidence. Another example
today was your insistence that forgetting what you went into a room
for wasn't forgetting what you went into a room for.
You didn't even thank me for correcting your ignorance about the term
"vinyl."

daughter named Jennifer, he and I both called her 'Niffer.
When I was in college, 10% of the people in the dorm were named
"Jennifer" (10% of all the people, not 105 of the women) but none of
them were 'Niffer.

In modern spelling, <nn> and <ff> are what would keep the preceding vowels
relatively unchanged. In spelling pronunciation, that is.

But there are several different ways of spelling it, as I noted 20 years
ago.
