Helpwhy reduce Adelaide to Lady?
in reply to a message by alicia_renee
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.

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.
