HelpThis or That - Nicknames + suggestions?
I've been thinking about a few girl names recently, as I struggle with these and seem to STILL have no combos to work with!
The few I've thought about lately are likely to get shortened, so which nns do you like best:
Florence - Flo or Florrie?
Dorothy - Dolly or Thea?
Beatrice - Bea, Beaty or Trixie?
Liliana - Lily, Lia (prn. Leah) or Ana (prn. ah-na)?
Matilda - Mattie, Tilly or Tilda?
If you're feeling generous today: I seem to like more uncommon old-fashioned girl names, or just generally uncommon names (bar a few) - any suggestions for either individual names or combos?
Others I like include Lacey, Orla, Shiloh, Daisy, Morgan, Esme, Winter and Tia.
Thanks :)

Florence - Florrie. I personally love Flora and Flossie but Florrie is sweet too.
Dorothy - Dolly. Thea doesn't really make sense unless you're using Dorothea. I like Dora or Dorie best but Dolly isn't bad.
Beatrice - Bea. This is a family name for me and I love Bea as a nickname.
Liliana - Lily. It's pretty and makes the most sense.
Matilda - Tilly. I also love Millie as a nickname.
