Re: Nicknames as full names
in reply to a message by crybaby
Min. My favorite nickname that also is a full name. I like Minnie too, but highly prefer the simple Min.
Kate springs to mind too.
Tons of names that are primarily nicknames work well as full names. The whole line of Elizabeth inspired shortenings works (i.e. Liza, Beth, Ellie, Liz, Eliza, Betsy, etc).
I actually prefer most of the nicknames for Elizabeth to the full name itself.
I also like Nate as is, Jeff as is, Meyli (Melisande) as is, Lina as is, Nina as is. . . etc.
There are just so many nicknames that just work on their own.
