[Opinions] Pixie.
I'm loving the name Pixie at the moment, it's not my style at all as I usually like classic, old fashioned names. What are you opinions on Pixie? It is usable? Any combo suggestions?

Adorable nn, but it would be horrible to be an adult called Pixie.

I know a Nicole who went by Nix, which became Nixie and then Pixie. But not for long! Same could work for Beatrix: rather Pixie than Trixie. But not as a name on its own: remarkably, it's worse than Fay!

I can't believe I'm going to admit this on this site, as I could be lynched for it, but I love the name Pixie! I think it's so sweet and girly, but it would be better as a mn. It would sound too young on an adult.

Not usable, but a GREAT nn! +I don't think its usable, purely because it would be really hard to ever take someone called Pixie seriously - i know this is a cliche but think Chief Justice Pixie Lastname - to me it just doesnt work.But that said, it is an ADORABLE nickname! I think it could work for anything that begins with a P really. I really love it as a nn, its so quirky and unusual!

It would make a cute nickname, but an embarrassing Christian name. It's too childish.

I'd like it as a pet name... not for humans

It would be VERY hard for me to take that 'name' seriouslyI wouldn't like it as a nn either, but as a full name it's funny. And not in a good way. If you must consider it, I'm hoping you're okay with it in the mn spot.Some suggestions:
Clarice Pixie
Lillian Pixie
Seraphine Pixie
Catherine Pixie
Sophia Pixie
Claudia Pixie
Dahlia Pixie
Vivienne Pixie
Josephine Pixie

as a nickname, yes. As a full name, no thank youIt is darn cute as a nickname,. but I agree with Andromache and think it is far too infantile and fluffy to work as a full given name. To be honest I think Pixie as a full name sounds woefully porn-star-esque. I think Pixie could work well as a nn for Patricia (Pasty reminds me of Pixie), Beatrix, or even Elspeth.

WoooooahHa, I just had a conversation on another forum about the name Pixie. Like I was literally talking about it just a moment ago. Everyone's all "Oh, think of the teasing" and I was saying that people don't get teased for names all that much, really. I can't really say I like it as a given name, but it would be an adorable nickname for a young child.But since you asked:Pixie Alexandra
Pixie Christophine
Pixie Sophia
Pixie Sophronia
Pixie Marguerite
Pixie Thomasine
Pixie Rosemary
Pixie Olivia
Pixie Victoria

Unusable, imo..Too childish. It might work as a nickname, like Beatrix -> Trixie -> Pixie?

Agree tooI'd actually find it quite embarrassing on an adult as a full name.

I also agree.It could work as a nickname for a young girl but most people couldn't pull it off as they got older as a nickname let alone as a first name.

agreeIt could be a cute nn, but it's silly as a full name. I suppose it could also work for Pia or something.
