I think that this name is so nice on its own, and I’d use it on a girl in a heartbeat! Oh, and it’s also beautiful as a nickname for Angelina and Angela!
I know it is seen as a "nickname" but I think Angie is a very pretty name and I don't like the longer versions such as Angela, Angelica..etc. Yuck. But Angie on it's own is a very nice name! My sister is named Angie and she is so pretty and smart. Also Angie Baby and Angie are great songs that use the name.
My parents named me Angie. Not Angela, not Angelina, just Angie. My name is a NICKNAME. I hate it. Please try harder for your children. Don't name them nicknames.
I grew up with the nickname Angie. My given name is Angela which is what I primarily go by now as an adult. I have always liked being called Angie, though there have been instances I get tired of Angela. (Something about when people run together and there's a "gel" sound instead of "ge-la".). I was never teased about my name as a kid. I never experienced people confusing my name with others in introductions. (Though occassionally I get "Andrea" now when I say "Angela".) I'm glad it remains a somewhat popular name, though not overused. It is a very good name to grow up with from childhood to adulthood.
I love this name so munch. I love the song that the name comes from in many ways. I feel that the name has a nice meaning and works in all kinds of ways. I could see my child being named this and I would love to name her Angie.
My aunt's name is Evangeline Doris, but everyone calls her Angie. Personally, I don't know where the nickname came from, but I think it is a lovely name. When I think of this name, I think of natural beauty.
