HelpRe: Alison
in reply to a message by Perrine
I wonder if Peyton Place had anything to do with it. That book/movie/soap opera was apparently quite influential and there was an Allison character in it. Although it wasn't around in the 80's when Allison really reigned supreme, so I'm not sure!
Maybe the double L just seemed more "feminine" and more easily lent itself to Allie nicknames rather than Ali?
I've known plenty of Alisons that were never Als or Allies, just Alisons, it never seemed to be an issue. And I automatically spell it with just one L, that version is more familiar to me.
