HelpWere Patricia's nicknames Tricia and Trish common in the 1940s?
I'm writing a short article about "If there was a naming forum in the 1940s," and I'm thinking about including the line, "I'm so sick of Tricia/Trish. This name would become emblematic of this era." There it is. But at the time, I felt like “Tricia” and “Trish” didn’t seem like a good match, so I asked the question. And if so, what nicknames were more common than Tricia and Trish at the time?
(Edit - Tricia and Trish weren't common at the time, so I'll change that line to "I'm so sick of Patsy/Patti/Patty. This name would become emblematic of this era.")

No, Tricia and Trish were not common in the 1940s; they came later. The originally popular nicknames for Patricia were Pat, Patti, and Patsy.

Thank you. In that case, the line should be changed to "I'm so sick of Patsy/Patti/Patty. This name would become emblematic of this era."
Yep!
Yep!
