All of the Jeannie's in our family were registered as Janet.

Jeanie would be for the name Jean I should think. Have lots of them called that in my family although their proper names were Jean.

Good evening, Maybe a simple question but could Jeanie be a nickname for some other first name? On a 1906 passenger list for the S.S. Astoria from Glasgow to New York I can clearly identify my 2x great uncle, James B(urns) Allan but can not understand the writing for his wife's name. They arrived in New York, with Montreal as their ultimate destination. They had 4 children (James B., John S., Elsie and Andrew T.) in Canada. I later found he and the children in the 1930 United States Census with a new wife named Matilda.
