I hate Mia, in theory. But it's a very common name these days for kids and makes sense as a NN for Miriam, so functionally, it seems like a good choice for her.

Picking a new nickname seems like a reasonable way for a preteen to assert identity. Even if my kid picked something I hated, I would encourage it because I'd be counting my blessings they were rebelling in such a mild way.
