The name in the books is Ginny. However the distinction between Ginny and Jenny is harder to make if you've only seen the movies.

No, its ABSOLUTELY Ginny, I've never heard of "Jenny" before. There is no Jenny in the Harry Potter Books, don't get confused.

In the books, it's Ginny, ron's sister. There is no such charcter called Jenny in the Harry Potter series. They're getting the name wrong.

no shes not jenny. i guess sometimes people hear the name and dont know how to spell it. im pretty sure shes always been just ginny or maybe they are talking about another person. ive heard someone spell her name that way on yahoo answers too but then added that they meant ginny.

Ginny is always spelled "ginny" in the books.
The confusion is understandable considering the simularity in both the sounds and the spellings of the name jenny and ginny.

It's just people misspelling it. Like you can spell Jerry and Gerry with a different letter and still sound the same. Jenny is probably a more popular spelling.
