Jorja

Jorja is a modern English feminine respelling of Georgia, which itself derives from the Greek name Georgios, rooted in the Greek word georgos, meaning farmer or earthworker, from ge (earth) and ergon (work). The spelling variant emerged in contemporary English-speaking countries as a feminized and visually distinctive form of the traditional name. American actress Jorja Fox brought the spelling to wider public attention in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Related forms include Georgia, Georgina, and Georgiana.
