[Opinions] Mimi
If you had to call your daughter Mimi, which full name would you pick?Do you like Mirabel "Mimi"? Does it work?

I would use MillicentMimi”, so cute!Mirabel “Mimi” is cute I think it could work.
Jemima.I love Mirabel, but hate Mimi, and would avoid it at all costs.
I prefer Mirabel as a name, but as a full name for the nn Mimi I prefer Miriam. Not that I'd ever use Miriam - I don't like it that much.
My first option would be Minerva. I also like Mimi as a nickname for Maria, Miriam, Marina, Miranda and Mireille.It also works well for Mirabel, but I prefer the Mirabelle spelling.
It could work for Mirabel which is why I would choose it. I like Mimi as a NN.
I don't like Mirabel or Mimi Mimi his grandmother to me, maybe Miriam could wprk
I'd pick Minerva for Mimi. Mirabel works for Mimi, sure.
I know several people who call their grandmothers Mimi. Also know of someone's great-aunt Marie who is called Mimi by most of her family, and a girl named, I think, Ameeyah (that's how it's pronounced, anyway) who is called Mimi.I would never call a daughter that. It sounds like baby talk. I guess I'd pick Maria for the full name, but again, I would not use Mimi, or any nn, for something as pretty as Maria.
Sure, Mimi works for Mirabel. I'd consider it for Melpomene or Millicent Amy (Amy as a MN honoring my mother).
I think Mirabel “Mimi” works great!
