Re: Lady as a nickname
I think it's very cute. I have thought about using Lady as a nickname for Adelaide. :)

why reduce Adelaide to Lady?But Adelaide is such a beautiful name it would seem a waste to butcher it into something as plain and boring and dog-like as lady.

Adelaide is a beautiful name, yes, but kids usually end up getting nicknames at some point, and I like it as an alternative to Addie-type nicknames.

Adel or Della would be preferable... or even Heidi.

There's a woman at another forum I post at with a daughter named Adelaide, nicknamed Laidey. I think it's rather sweet, and you're absolutely right about kids getting some sort of nickname eventually. I nickname everyone and everything, and if I had a kid he or she would be getting multiple nicknames, probably not planned.

Ditto on Adelaide. Lady is my stock nickname for it.

I was thinking for Aleydis which is a version of Adelaide. Great minds think alike

Aleydis nn Lady is a great idea!For some reason I can see Aleydis Genevieve "Lady" very clearly.
