I think Lucy is already short enough that it doesn't need a nn, but Lux would make a pretty cool shorter form.

Lu? Luce? Cece?
How about you make Lucy a nn for something--that makes a whole lot more sense to me. Luciana, Lucienne, Lucette/Lucetta, Lucretia, Lucinda, Lucille/Lucilla, Louisiana, Luciva, and Lucia/Lusiya are all such pretty names.

That's already a nickname.If you don't want to use Lucy then you can work backwards to the appropriate full names.

No, you're wrong.Lucy is actually a full name. The names Lucinda, Lucette, Lucasta etc derived from Lucy.I like the nickname Lucette.

Wrong. It's a full nameLucy is a full name in its own right. Names like Lucille and Lucette are technically pet forms of Lucie (Lucy). Lucinda is an elaboration (from Lucia really) but could be seen as yet another name deriving from Lucy and Co.I'm surprised so many people think this is a nickname. I'd assume a name stretching back hundreds and hundreds of years and is regarded as the English version of Lucia, has decent currency as a full name, right?

Luce. But the name sounds more like a nn than one with a nn to me.

CC, Lou Lou. Or you could go the longer pet name route and use Lucette.I hear that people use Luce a lot. I don't like it. reminds me of loose. Not a nice thing to call a girl ;)

Lu, Lulu, Luce, Cici. Although, since it is itself a nickname, I don't think it really needs one.
