Nicknames or full names?
By this I mean which do you prefer? Would you rather name a child a nickname, a name that can have nicknames or a name where he/she doesn't have an automatic nn?I don't think I would name a child a nn, but a name that can have nn's, with some exceptions of names that I like but wouldn't want to use a nn. Although I do like some name's that don't have nn's.I would name a girl Lillian and Liliana and possibly call her by Lily. I would use names like Joshua, Samuel, Chrisopher, Jacob but call them by the nn's not the full names (unless they had done something really terrible lol).I like the names Nataliya, Tatiyana, Frederik, Christian, Lucas and Gabriella but wouldn't call them by the nn's those names have.I love the name Jack, which some people say is a nn for Jackson. I would rather use Jack over Jackson.
Edit/adding...forgot that Jack is a form/nn of John.What about you?
