Re: Boyish Nicknames On Girls
in reply to a message by Howie
I actually really like it. There are quite a few boyish nns that I think are boring on boys, but sound cool, tough and feisty on girls. That’s not to say that traditionally girls names can’t have the same effect, but very much due to characters, they easily give that vibe and have grown on me. A few I like:
Alex (Alexandria)
Bill/Billie (Wilhelmina, Sybil, Sybilla)
Bobby (Roberta)
Frankie (love on a girl, dislike on a boy)
Charlie
Sam (Samara, Samira)
Teddy (Theodora)
Rory (Aurora)
Jo (Joanna)
Sam (Thomasina)
Fangirl (19) Dreaming of...
Pandora Beatrix Fae ✦ Caspian Sherlock Walter
Evanthe Sylvia Clio✦ Ptolemy Lysander George
Artemis ✦ Marigold ✦ Horatio ✦ Nikolai
