Tam - Thomasin, Tamsin
Jem - Jemima...prefer this as a male nn for Jeremiah or James, though
Minnie - I like this as a circumstantial nn rather than a short form of Minerva, but it is cute for Philomena.
Tilda - Clotilde / Clotilda, Bathilda (!)
Xan - Alexandra, Xanthippe
Leo - Leonie, Leandra, Lyubov

Tam- Tammy, Tamara,
Jem- Jemima (but many people have bad associations with it because of Aumt Jemima being a slave), Jemalle (found on Wikipedia, pro football player, but feels more feminine to me)
Minnie- many Wilhelmina's nn this in my family, Minerva
Tilda- Clothilde/ Clothilda
Xan- this feels like it could be a full fn from Chinese to me
Leo- Leocadia, Leona, Leola

Tam - Tamsin, Thomasina, Tamira, Tamora and Tamara / Tammara. Tamira is the female version of Tamir.Jem - I can see Gem for Gemma and Gemmata. But for Jem all I see is Jemma, Jemima, Jamesina and Jasmine.Minnie - Wilhelmina / Willemina, Wilhelmine, Mina / Minna, Minette, Minerva and Millicent. Millicent you could use Millie or Minnie. Also Helmine, Hermine and Hermione.Tilda - I can see Tilda or Thilda for these. Matilda / Mathilda, Matilde / Mathilde, Mechtilde / Mechthild, Mahthildis, Ottilia, Ottilie, Klotild, Clotilda, Clotilde / Clothilde, Clothildis and Chlotichilda.Xan - Alexandra, Alexandria, Alexandrine, Xandra, Xanthe and Xanthia.

Minnie: Jessamine
Tilda: Matilda, I guess, but I hate this nn.
Xan: Alexandra
Leo: Liora
