The inspiration behind my business name … it’s quite simple, ju is short for Julie and Venna is my middle name, this being my Mother’s name.
I always remember as a young girl at school when we had to introduce ourselves with our full names and other girls giggling at my middle name Venna. Being so young and shy, I would be quite embarrassed by this. Not now, I think it’s a lovely name! Our name Venna is actually pronounced ‘Veena’ and so my business name is quite often pronounced incorrectly, but that’s understandable.
My Mum said when she was a young girl at school (which was quite a while ago now) the teachers would never correctly pronounce her name as they said it was spelled as Venna and so would be pronounced as Venna (Ven-na) … I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t get away with that now!
The meaning of Venna is butterfly, how beautiful is that! So very proud to have Venna as part of my name…
