Re: WDYTO Avi?
I think it's quite handsome and literary for a boy--in the US, it's very much associated with Avi, the writer of children's and young adult books. He's written a bunch that're now considered classics, like The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle, Nothing But The Truth, and Crispin: The Cross of Lead. Avi was a nickname he picked up in childhood, however, rather than an example of the Avi in the database being used--his given name was Edward.It works for a girl, too, but I immediately think masculine when I hear it. I don't think it's too nicknamey at all, though now that I think of it, Aviva nn Avi would be supercute. ;)Array
