Re: William and Nicknames
in reply to a message by queenv
I might use the full name, or at least try. I slightly prefer Will to Bill. Bill is what my dad is called (as was his father) and thus has always been a "dad name" to me. Will sounds a bit younger and handsomer to me. Billy is cute, but sounds childish (my dad was called Billy when he was a child but changed to Bill when he got older). I've never cared for Willie. Liam is such a popular stand alone name right now that it is too overused.
