I prefer Tori, but I don't think of Torrie as being kre8tive. I think with nicknames it doesn't matter which letters are in the name. Missy is a common nickname for Melissa, but there is no y in Melissa. Of course, there is also Bill as a nn for William. And then, I've always wondered how people get Hank out of Henry. There are also children whose nicknames have nothing to do with their name. My grandpa's name is Sanford William, but he has always been called Bud.
