HelpAmbrose vs. Ambrosius
I've been thinking lately whether I prefer
Ambrose or Ambrosius
I think if I did use Ambrose the nn would either Amb or Rosie. And if I did use Ambrosius I would probaby just call him Ambrose or Rosie.
Which do you think is better??
EDIT= Btw I adore 'girly' nicknames for boys and alot of my male friends have 'girly' nick names (eg. my mate Chris is Chrissy, Joe is Josie etc. its more of an affectionate term here)

Ambrosius works best on sheepdog steeds ridden by overly excitable foxes called Didymus. Sorry. ;)
Ambrose is handsome as hell, if not something I'd use. And if Ambrosius would be called Ambrose anyway, I'd skip the middleman and go straight for the source.

Just Ambrose. I think it's a great name, but it has the potential to be pretentious. Ambrosius just is pretentious.

I agree about Ambrosius.
Ambrose just feels more natural, in my opinion.
(Ambrosius is also the name of the dog in my favorite movie ever, Labyrinth, so maybe that's another reason why it feels odd to me, because it's the first thing I think of.)

I think calling a boy Rosie is just asking for trouble, in my opinion.
Ambrose is better then Ambrosius. I don't know how to say Ambrosius. Is it Am-bor-jhus? Or Am-bro-zee-us?
On an entirely different level Ambrose was my budgie's name years ago, so will forever be a little blue and white bird to me.
