[Opinions] What do you think of "Fliss" as a nickname for Felicity?
Urm...what do you think of "Fliss" as a NN for Felicity? I think it's really nice - I'd even use it as a stand-alone name, though I do like the name Felicity as well. What are your opinions?

Hm, something squicky about it. Sounds like a slang term for some kind of liquid. It'd have to be spontaneous and tongue-in-cheek, very familiar -- not the sort of name you would put on your checks or give the barista.- chazda"I don't want to look like a loser for the rest of my life!" ~ Georgia Ford, on needing a signature

I adore the name Felicity and Fliss is a fine nickname, I like it better than Flick. It's NMS to use Fliss as a stand alone name. Also, Lissy could be another nickname.

I don't think nicknames should be planned, but left up to the child. But, I don't really like Fliss, but if the child does, then so be it. I don't care for Felicity, as I think it's too girly sounding.

I think it's really hard to say--for me, at least. I think the similar Flossie is really cute, though, and could possibly used as a nickname for Felicity.I'd prefer Liss or Fay as nicknames for Felicity.Array
