Background

In an interview with Songfacts, Romans stated about the origin of the song's title: "'Jenny' is just a name. A name that scans well in songs," adding: "A lot of people are like, 'Okay, who's Jenny?' It's more a representation of anyone being fickle."[2] However, rumours suggest that this song is referencing a possible friendship between some of the band member's time at the Berklee College of Music with South Korean singer, Park Bom, whose English name was "Jenny". In 2016, band member Kyle Patrick said in response to the rumour circulating on Twitter: "We may never know the truth."[3]
