Re: Nicknames for Octavia? (and a few others?)
in reply to a message by Mar
I generally prefer girls' nicknames to end in -ie, but lately I am all about y. It seems so complete and sweet! It does look a lot like Navy though.
Which is actually kind of cute!
LOL all of the sexual things you mentioned. Octavia is so awkward like that. I turned down so many vulgar nicknames that came up when I was tossing around - Titty, Tee-tee, Viti (VD), Ovia (which I see you suggested, it sounds a lot like Ovary to me). Tavia sounds a lot like Labia except with a v, which is a very *feminine* letter and is therefore very gross to me.
Teevie is like TV, but in TV the emphasis is more evenly distributed. Teevie is more like Stevie without the S.
Tia and Avy (Avy is really cool looking!) are both really nice, but they seem like they are both trying to hard to make Octavia ~pretty.~ And it can be pretty but I prefer it honest.
People don't seem to like Caddy! It grew on me pretty fast after reading The Sound And The Fury, where it's a nickname for Candace. I think it's very solid and sweet.
