Help[Opinions] Re: Favorite nickname as full name?
in reply to a message by CN
I have been thinking about Tom a lot lately and I would definitely consider using it on its own. A lot of people think nicknames are childish but I think Tom is much more grown-up sounding than Thomas. I find with a lot of names the full name is only used in childhood and then they switch to a nickname. For a girl I always preferred Cassie over Cassandra, but now I'm not sure. I'm going off the name Toby but I'd use that on its own. I wouldn't even consider it a nickname these days although many people on this board do.
Alec works very well on its own. I don't think it needs to be a nickname. The same with Millie.
I have a soft spot for names like Lizzie and Georgie for girls but I'd probably give them a full name for official purposes. I'm not sure.
