[Opinions] Re: Can I use first and middle name? Nick name help!
in reply to a message by Woods
I wouldn't worry about your future niece's name. My brother and one of our cousins had the same first name. We just called them by their first and middle names to avoid confusion. Secondly, they may call her by a nickname or her middle name. Thirdly, your sister-in-law may change her mind and go with a completely different name.
My mother went by her middle name. My dad didn't like that name, so he started calling her by a nickname. She was in her teens. When folks called her by her original middle, you knew they had known her a long time. I guess you're never too old to go by another nickname. Call your daughter whatever feels right and brings you joy!
