Help[Opinions] Re: Raphael
in reply to a message by solveig
I like Raphael and Rafael. I don't really like Rafe and Raffi just reminds me of that singer guy who did kids songs in the 90's or whenever.
I think Raf or Raph is okay if you're not looking for an 'everyday' nickname. Just like a short syllable to say in casual conversation. Like, my name is Emma and I don't have an everyday nickname but people (mostly my parents) will call me Em sometimes because it's easier. It's a nickname but not the way Chris is a nickname for Christopher, you know?
I think Ray or Rae might work, or something like Rel. Or Raphi prn. ra-fee (instead of Raffi prn. raff-ee).
Julian Raphael is cool, I don't think it's pretentious.
