Re: What Are Your Favorite Nicknames?
in reply to a message by Thalia
That's a hard question because to me nicknames are very linked to their full names, and not really seperate entities. But I'll try to think of some favorites!
Jamie, Jem - James
Effie, Eppie, Femie - Euphemia
Ginny, Gin, Gina - Virginia, Eugenia
Will - William
Frank - Francis
Nan, Nancy, Nanw - Anne
Pat - Patrick
Fia, Nuala - Fionnuala
Shoshie - Shoshana
Aggie - Agnes, Agatha, Augusta
Bram - Abraham, Abram
Lyn - Llewellyn, Emlyn
Bridie, Birdie - Bridget
Bedo - Meredith, Meredydd, Maredudd
I also really like Iolo, but not so much Iorwerth. Maybe it could work for Ionawr.
