Re: Feminine names with “masculine” nicknames?
in reply to a message by Cayden
It depends on the name but for the most part, I like them.
Some I like:
Wilhelmina / Sybil "Billie"
Josephine "Joey"
Isidora / Cressida "Sid"
Matilda "Mattie"
Theodora / Theodosia "Teddy" or "Theo"
Ellen / Eleanor "Lenny"
Fionnuala "Finn"
Charlotte "Chuck"
Harriet "Harry" or "Hal"
Katherine "Kit"
Lavinia "Vinnie"
Olive "Olly"
Thomasina "Tommy"
Winifred / Frederica "Fred"
Persephone "Persie"
Phillippa "Pip"
I also really like Bertie and Stevie on girls but don't really like any of the names they could spawn from i.e Alberta, Roberta or Stephanie.
