I love Gideon but Ernest is irredeemably nerdy to me.

I do think Gideon will at least occasionally be shortened to Gid. I've known people who insist on shortening the names of everyone they know, so I don't think it's possible to completely avoid it. It wouldn't necessarily be done by everyone all of the time though.

I don't think it likely that Gideon will ever be shortened to Giddy.
