Re: Do these nicknames work?
in reply to a message by Lily
Autumn Briana nn Aubrey - It's not far-fetched at all. In fact, I really like it. I kinda love nicknames that spring from a combination of the first and middle names, especially when both names are chosen because you love them; that way, a little bit of both shows up in the nickname. I have two such combos on my own list: Rose Millicent, nn Romilly, and Lucy Isabelle, nn Libby.
Aron nn Ari - Sure. Not far fetched at all. I don't care for it because I love Aaron/Aron in full and really dislike Ari, but it works.
Aaron nn Ari - Makes just as much sense as Ari for Aron, and no, I wouldn't spell it Aari. I don't think the spelling of a nn needs to 100% reflect the spelling of the proper name. I'd be as fine with an Aaron nn Ari as I would with Catherine nn Kate. I'm an Alison who uses Allie rather than Ali.
Schuyler nn Sky - Same here. Schuy is very unattractive and needlessly complicates what should be a simple nn. Just spell it Sky.
