Re: Millie
in reply to a message by Mareasi
Millie is a darling nn. Love it. Aside from the usual Amelia / Emilia, how about:
Emily
Camille / Camilla
Camellia
Millicent / Melisande
Jamila
Mary (if Molly is a nn for Mary, I don't see why Millie couldn't be too.)
Michelle
Matilda
Mirabel / Mirabelle / Mirabella
Melina
Imelda
Melanie
Eumelia ("yoo-meh-LEE-uh")
Olympia
Carmel / Carmella
Marcelline
Madeline / Madeleine / Magdalene
Mila / Mileva ("mih-LAY-vuh")(Einstein's 1st wife)(Slavic)
Melody
Mahala / Mahalia
Mehetabel
Malaika (= angel)(African girl's name)
Romilly
Romilda (?)
Muriel / Muirgheal
Sulis Minerva
OK. So some of these are more practical than others. But if you're going to call her by her nn, then I thought you might like to be a bit adventurous for the formal name. I'd love to know if any of these strike your fancy. Thanks. Happy hunting!
