HelpRe: Nickname possibility?
in reply to a message by Catalina
Cleopatra is quite much, indeed. While we're on that name, I actually saw a stone in a cemetery for a woman by the firstname of Cleopatra (it was interesting and unusual, especially because she had been born in the 1800's.)
Clementine has always seemed like it would garner assumptions of the bearer being inadequate or weak. Infantile.
I will list a few possibilities (take a look at their variants, too):
Clotilde / Clotilda
Cleona
Cloelia
Cliodhna
Clodagh
Clover
Claudine
Clarisse
Calanthe
Calfuray
Calliope
Callista
Celeste
Constantina
Candace
Angelica
Riccarda
Leona
Leonora
Nicknames do not need to be a perfect match to legal given-names. Sometimes the best diminutives are for the most unlikeliest of fullnames (even if they are absolute opposites.)
Good luck,
