Re: Nicola
in reply to a message by Lily8
I think Nicola is amazing on a boy (reminds me of Tesla, coolest guy ever) but I'm not fond of it on a girl. I'm not even quite sure how I'm supposed to pronounce it when it's on a girl. Nih-COLE-uh sounds strange, but nee-coh-LA sounds so masculine.I can't say why it never became popular in the US. Perhaps it wasn't heard of.I've never met a Nicola.
I know... four Nicoles, and I know several people who have Nicole as a middle name.I prefer Nicola on both questions, though as I said, I'm not fond of it on a girl.None of the Nicoles I know get called Nicky / Nikki. I don't anticipate it being a problem. I went to preschool with a Nicoletta. She was a snotty little rich girl :/
