Hi everybody,
This is about a name for a blog. The blog is about healthy food. It is supposed to give information how to eat and enjoy healthy without any concerns and to feel carefree and jaunty. Now the thing is, it is a must that the name consists of two words, one starting with a "J" and one starting with a "P". Which letter comes first does not matter.
My idea is "Jaunty Pleasure" or "Jauntily Pleasure"
Whereas the second option is not correct I think, because of the adverb.
Can anyone help and tell me what's correct or even has an idea for a different version?
Thank you!

Hello, globetrotterj—and welcome to English Forums. Thank you for registering as a member.
globetrotterj"Jaunty Pleasure" or "Jauntily Pleasure"?Neither makes sense. What are you trying to say? Please explain more and give an example sentence.

Right, "Jauntily Pleasure" is not correct. "Jaunty Pleasure" is grammatical but sounds odd to me, and does not in any way suggest healthy food. It gives me the impression of being a play on "Guilty Pleasure". "Jaunty" is a word with limited use, whose connotations probably do not fit the image you are trying to create.

Thank you GPY for your response!
I'm having a hard time finding appropriate synonyms. Initially I am trying to create a version of "carefree relish" or something, but just with two words starting with "J" and "P"...
As far as I know (just as you said before) jaunty is rather limited and is more used for something as "he's jauntily strolling down the street". For example.

globetrotterjThis is about a name for a blog about healthy food. It is supposed to give information how to eat and enjoy healthy food without any concerns and to feel carefree and jaunty..My idea was "Jaunty Pleasure" or "Jauntily Pleasure"'Jaunty/Jauntily' makes no sense in that context whatsoever. Why does it have to be 'J' and 'P'?
