HelpRe: Would you still use a name if you hated all the nicknames?
in reply to a message by coldplayer9
You could use them as a middle name. I think if you pick a different nickname and inforce that it won't be much of a problem to use a different nickname as long as there is one because people will want to shorten them. Of course if you keep insisting they use the full name it can work.
Samantha - you could use Ann (samANtha)or Mandy??
Catherine - Rina?
My grandmother is Genevieve and she goes by Jenny. Eve, Vi, Evie
Nicolette - Colette, Colie / Coley "cole - EE", Ette, Etta
Gabrielle - Bri, Elle, Brielle, Abi, Brie, Ella
Seraphina - just insist on Fi
Don't rule them out they are way to beautiful not to use. If they really worry you use them as a middle name.
For me it is:
Charlotte - Hate Lottie, Char sounds like Cher, Charlie is okay but not girly, it doesn't seem to do Charlotte justice, Carly would be okay but I know too many I don't like.
Victoria - Tori may be okay. Vicky is awful.
Abigail - Abby is too close to my cousin's duaghter Addy, and I have a cousin Gail, plus I don't really like the name Gail.
Margaret - I have a cousin Margie (I have a lot of cousins), most the other nicknames are okay but I can't find one I really love.
Miranda - I don't like Mira or Randi
Natasha - not keen on Tasha
