I like it and I would use Lottie as a nickname. I don't really like Charlie as a nickname for Charlotte as I think Charlie is more of a boys name. Also I find it a bit illogical because Charlotte begins with a "shar" sound while Charlie has a harder "char" sound.

It's not really my style. Lottie is the cutest nickname for it, I think. Ever since someone pointed it out in a thread, all I can think of when I see Charlotte is harlot. :(

I really like beautiful, classic Charlotte. I prefer Charlotte for the birth certificate and then Charlotte, Charlie, Lottie, or Lotta depending upon the child's personality and preferences.

The harlot...

It's also a town in my state. Complete no-no in my books.

Ignore.

I like it. It's a classic. But I don't like Charlie or Lottie for nn.

I seem to spend my life explaining this: Charlotte not only rhymes with harlot, it actually contains it. This alone is enough to put me off it for life; however, I don't much like the sound either. I'm fine with Charlie for boys; Lottie not at all; and though I don't much like Charlene in all its various spellings, I do prefer it to Charlotte.

It's okay as a name, but as for nicknames, Lottie over Charlie, definitely. Even Chuck is good, lol.

I like it, and I think both Charlie and Lottie could work as NN's.

I really like it. I can't use it because it's too ... um, too something. Too French? That's not it. I dunno. It just seemed too ... argh

Too cold?

Whatever. I love the sound of it and I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I just couldn't use it for my own kid. I don't think it needs a nickname at all and I don't like any of the nicknames. I think Lottie is better than Charlie, though.

I love it. I'd just say Charlotte, but Chée is cute (pronounced like Shay).

I love Charlotte! I like both nicknames. I think if the girl is more spunky, you could call her Charlie, and if she's more shy, Lottie would be a better fit.
