[Opinions] Re: Fanny and Dick (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
I think it's fine in other European countries and was probably charming here in the 18th century, when multiple members of my family were called Fanny, all short for Frances. But it would be very awkward to have in the UK now, unless it was a joke nn or a stage name.
I've never met anyone called Dick. I do have a cousin called Gaye, which is probably about as usable here now as Fanny and Dick.
