Re: Do certain names always gain nicknames?
in reply to a message by Georgia-Claire
Want to know something funny? My grandmother called her children by their full names: Ronald, Rebecca, Michael, Denise, and Gregory. You know what people call them now? Ronnie, Becky, Mike, Dede, and Greg. Really, it's all up to the individual; despite my grandmother correcting people, her kids grew up and didn't give a damn if people called them by their nicknames. Whatever your child is comfortable with, that's what they will be called, so you never know.
