Adelaide - I agree, this one is really ruined by Addie.
Audrey - doesn't need a nickname, so not a problem! I've never encountered Audreys going by nicknames.
Balthazar - hm, I think that anyone who likes Balthazar would be open to various short forms. None of them would be too conventional or baggagey. ?
Charlotte - no need for a nickname!
Efraim - no need for a nickname
Esther - no need for a nickname
Felicity - ew. yeah.
Florence - yeah, I agree this is ruined
Frances - agree. I feel even more so about Francis (m).
Helen - no need for a nick.
Helena - yeah, I guess if you say it heh-LEN-a and don't like Lena.
Louisa - I'm no fan of Lou either
Sebastian - Bastian's really not that bad. I can't see anyone using anything else in real life. The Sebastians I've known go by Sebastian. It's not longer or more difficult than Adrian, which pretty much never gets nicknamed either.
