HelpRe: Your feelings on nicknames
in reply to a message by Cambria
My boyfriend is the same way. "If you're going to call her Thea, why not just name her Thea?" There aren't many names that I like nns for, but I'm not one to name a child something nnish. When they're older, it will look more sophisticated and respectable if Winnie can sign her name as Winifred and not Winnie. Here are some names I like nns for:
Matilda "Tilly"
Theodora "Thea"
Winifred "Winnie"
Jillian "Jill"
Satchel "Satch"
Vincent "Vince"
Westley "West"
Lazarus "Laz"
Finnian "Finn"
Julian "Jude"
Also, Asa nn Ace on your list is really cute! =)

I like almost all your names/nns. In fact, the only one I really don't like is Satchel, nn Satch. When I hear "Satchel" I think "purse" or "bag." "Satch" makes me think "Sasquatch" for some reason, lol. ;o) I really love Mitilda "Tilly," Theodora "Thea," Vincent "Vince," and Lazarus "Laz" from your list.
