Jenn

Jenn is an English short form of Jennifer, which itself derives from the Welsh name Gwenhwyfar, composed of the elements gwen, meaning white or fair or blessed, and hwyfar, meaning smooth or soft. The name became widely used in the English-speaking world during the twentieth century, partly through the popularity of Jennifer as a given name. Jenn functions both as a casual nickname and as an independently registered given name. Related forms include Jen, Jenny, and Jennifer itself.
