Re: Would you use a name you dislike (or don't love), just for use of the nickname?
I was wondering if the example was based on real life. If your SO dislikes Rose, though, would he be ok with you calling a Rosalie Rose? Or is his main issue with the legal name?

I think as long as HE didn't have to refer to her as Rose and introduce her exclusively as that, he'd be ok with me calling her that. And I imagine that he might actually warm to Rose as a NN once he has a younger, positive association for it.

I like Rose. It's fine. But I love Rosamund.
