HelpRe: Names We Love... and the Nicknames We Hate!!
in reply to a message by khaotickharma
Catherine. I wouldn't say I hate the nicknames, but I don't like any of them. Cate would be my favorite, but it just doesn't excite me that much.
Theodore and Edward are others. I'm really not fond of Ed, Ned, Ted, Teddy, Eddie, etc.
I have the opposite problem with Effie. I love it, but it needs a full name. I don't hate full names that it could be a nn for, but I don't love Euphemia or Josephine (and those are the only two I can think of that it could be short for).

Agree with you about Catherine, Theodore and Edward
I love Catherine, and Cate would be my favourite but it still does nothing for me. Thus, if I used Catherine it would have to be in the mn spot. Catie's too cute, Cath's too informal, Cate isn't as preferable to Kate, and Cathy's too dated.
I really like Theodore, and though I'm iffy about Edward, all of the Edward nicknamed could apply to my prefered Edgar.
