Re: What nickname would you use for Adelaide?
I had planned on calling my Adelaide "Della", but she ended up Adda. ADD-uh not AY-duh. Sometimes she was Lady, my little Ladybug. I'd even thought of Adelai, a name I'd seen in a name book once upon a time. These days she has decided she is Ada.Anywho, Addie is very cute, and though I like Adele, Addie makes more sense to me.You can plan a nn all you want, but somehow they end up being called whatever suits them best. :)

TrueIf I ever do have a daughter named Adelaide, I might call her Addie but I could see my mom calling her Adelaide. It's the same thing with Eleanor. I would love to call her Nora, but I could also see Elle or Ellie creeping in there.
