Middle Names for Gemma Starting with J or Soft G
You can use alliteration to create a nice sounding name by choosing a middle name that starts with the same sound.
If you a using the J spelling you might prefer the names starting with J as middle names for Jemma. As both soft G and J are pronounced the same way, it won’t make any difference to how the name sounds, only how it looks written down.
