I think it’s really cute! It has a masculine feel as well to it, but since it’s for a girl, I would never change that. Interesting that it’s a form of Basil!

Miss America 2016, Betty Cantrell, has this as her real name, but she spells it Baciliky. (By the way, my phone autocorrected Vasiliki as Basilisk. :( )

One of the ugliest Greek names and far too common, the Vaso form is especially ugly sounding. The name is too mature/old and unrefined sounding but I guess you can try to save it with a Vicky or Silia nickname.

Most common diminutives of this name in Greek are: Vasso, Vasia, Vicky, Silia.
Sometimes it is also written as Vassiliki (double s) as the correct pronunciation of the name is vah-silly-key, meaning the second syllabus of the word must sound as "s" and not "z". [noted -ed]

I had an aunt by this name. Her "official" English name was Bessie, but she was always called Betty. Other nicknames I have heard are Vickie and Kiki.

This is by far one of the most fabulous names ever. If I ever have a daughter, I'm tempted to give her this name, but it may be considered a bit to obscure. Oh well.

As far as I know, the nickname form is Vessie - but that's in an English-speaking environment.
