HelpRe: Callie
in reply to a message by Serafina Starstrider
Oh that must be why it's listed as a nickname for Caroline on this site! Calantha is pretty it could be an alternative for Samantha which is really common right now.

I forgot to mention that my cousin Callie her first name is actually Caroline.
I need to reread those books and make certain that I am right. Plus I should just reread them since I really did love them when I read them in middle school.
But I found this: http://www.cslib.org/nickname.htm It lists Callie as a 18th or 19th century American nn for Caroline. I think it has been used a nn for Caroline for a long time. I can't find anything else about its origins as a nn for Caroline.
I really like this list, it has some interesting nn's that I've never seen before.
