Re: Dee or DD as a nn
in reply to a message by )(
In general, nicknames just happen. Planning them is OK, but it's still very likely that something else will become that child's/person's nn.
FWIW, I know a Dorothy Doreen. She's retired, has always been known as Doreen, and her only nn, not often used, is Dor, not DD or Dee.
