Re: Ed as a nickname for a girl
in reply to a message by Canielle
(Writing this as I watch an episode of Misomer Murders myself)
The first "long form" for Ed I thought of was Edith. I also like the Edna and Edwina mentions.
If I had to give my daughter a masculine/unisex nickname, I'd probably go with Charlie (Charlotte) or Frankie (Frances). Fits the masculine-or-unisex vibe while being common enough that it wouldn't seem strange on a girl.
