HelpRe: Vera...nicknames??
in reply to a message by jesse
Okay... call me crazy... but why does she need a nickname right away? Sometimes the best names come organically from seeing the child.
My cousin for instance, named her son John, who could go by Johnny, J, Jack or JR (for his middle name). However, once he was born, he looked JUST like a cute little bug in a rug. It stuck. His nickname is now Bug.
I'm not sure why people think the nickname HAS to come from the name. Adorable, fitting nicknames seem to come best (in my opinion) from the child's personality!
