Personally, I don't see why you shouldn't let your child choose what she wants to be called herself. I mean..it's her name and she's old enough to realise that. Why can't she choose to spell it how she wants to?
My first name is Ceinwen, but I usually go by CJ as it's easier for people to say / spell / remember. My parents didn't influence my choice, they said I was my name to do with as I wished and had no problem with my going by another name unofficially. My family knows me by my full name, but friends, coworkers etc. as CJ. I've never had any problems with this arrangement.
