in reply to a message by Lily
Arthur - I don't like Artie.
Bartholomew - don't like Bart, I'd use Ollie.
David - Don't like Dave and Davy is just okay.
Robert - Bob, Bobby, Rob and Robbie are quite plain.
William - dislike Bill, Billy and Willie. Will and Liam are okay.
Edmund - it's my favorite boys name but I'd almost not use it because of the nicknames Ed and Eddie. I'd be very strict about him being called Edmund.
Kenneth - this is a family name and I actually don't mind it but I dislike Ken and Kenny. Kent is just okay.
