[Opinions] Re: Would you still use a name if you hated all the nicknames?
I'm not a big fan of nicknames. I prefer to use the full name. I think it comes from hating my own nickname ( Nikki). I've always hated it, even though it's all my family ever calls me! I introduce myself as Nicole, but some people will shorten it anyway. Mostly to Nic, which I don't find as bad.
Anyway, I would not scrap the names you love because of potential nicknames. I hate the nickname Sof/ Soph for Sophie/ Sofia etc. And when I had my daughter I did not want her being called Sof. I detest it. We never called her that and neither has anyone else. Ever.
We called her Sofia from the start, but it developed into Fia for short. Which I like and so does she.
