Re: What is your opinion about parents who choose a nice name and then shorten/change it to something else?
in reply to a message by Namaide
I honestly think the attitude of every name needing a nickname is kind of annoying. A few people have tried to shorten my name to Rin before, but I find it redundant to make a nickname of a name that is only four letters in the first place. Other times, there are names that I love in their full forms, but I'm not very big on the nicknames (for example, I've been considering Jillian lately, but I don't really like the nickname Jill).
