Using a less common nickname

It won't stop me from doing it, but I've been wondering how "difficult" it would be to use a nickname that isn't commonly used. Like one that most people wouldn't even know could be a nickname for the full name. Do you think people would wonder why you call them that and ask you about it all the time?

(Examples, Oliver "Noll", Henry "Harry", Anne "Nancy", Margaret "Gretchen", Mary "Polly", Sarah "Sadie".)
