HelpNicknames - Kind of long
Generally I don't like nicknames, mainly because I like the full name so much I don't like to see it shortened or because I like the 'nickname' so much I want to see it as a full name. That said, there are some names that just don't work as a full name. Here's a list of some names and I'm wondering whether you think they could work as a full name or are they strictly nicknames?
