[Opinions] Re: Nicknames - which work on their own and which don't (eta)
I think most of these work on their own, but I think most nicknames are just fine on their own. Many people have them, and they seem to work for them just fine :)
I think any of these can work on their own:
Gwen -I believe a full name in it's own
Greta
Rosie -:) I have a Rosy. She is Rosemary, but Rosy fits her better. It would be fine as a first name
Evie
Nell -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Tess
Nola
Penny -I love Penny much more than Penelope
Tori -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Della
Lula -This is so similar to Luella, it works
Callie -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Cammie -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Millie -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Molly
Billie -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Bobbie -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Sadie -Love Sadie, but don't like Sarah, I'd use this as a full name
Cleo -This is on our list for daughter 2.0. It works just fine
Charlie -ALMOST my name, instead I got stuck with my name. I'd rather be a Charlie
Nora -Prefer Norah
Betsy -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Elle -A full name in it's own
Birdie -I knew a lady named this, it seemed fine for her
Lucy-A full name in it's own, one of my very very favorites
KateBram
Will
Quin -prefer the spelling Quinn
Finn -A full name in it's own
Drew
Alec
Theo
Liam
Leo
Charlie -love this wayyyy more than Charles, I'd use it as a full name if I could
Archie -I know a man named this, he seems to like it just fine
Max
Eli -A full name in it's own I believe
Others I can think of:
Gus, Allie, Jake, Chris, Maisie, Liza, Hank, Ted, and Dolly
