A lovely and logical nn for Matilda; funny how Matty is nevertheless the default. I wouldn't use it except as a nn, and I'd need the nn to be something other than Matty because we had a Matilda dog who was known as Matty: wonderful animal, but an animal, and also often referred to as Matt the Mutt ...

Tilly is light; it floats and dances.

Great as a nn for Matilda, but can also work as a full name imo. I like it, but then I like Milly as a full name too.

It's ok as a nn

Ok as a nn for Matilda. Awful as a full name.

I used to think it was such a refreshing name, until I met a Tilly I didn't like. I'm a bit biased now :)
