[Opinions] Re: Gabrielle
in reply to a message by *Brogan*
I LOVE Gabrielle. It's #2 on our name list (Isabella is #1 for now).
I now three Gabrielle's, and one Gabriella, and none of them have nicknames. One is 40, one is 11 and one is 6. Gabriella is 8, and doesn't have a nickname either.
I think it's a beautiful name, and if you don't want a nickname, don't use one...and she won't either.
I have a cousin Katherine who is now 22 and NO ONE has ever called her Kate, Kathy or whatever. She's always just Katherine.
If anyone ever says "oh, do they call you Katie" she says "no" and that's the end of it.
Good luck!
