Re: Do you think these nicknames work?
in reply to a message by Rachel
Lily - Yup
Delia - Yup
Lila - Yup
Ally - Sorta a stretch, but not too bad. A common nickname to tack on to a beautiful name.
Delly (for a young child) - I prefer Della
Ellie - I can see it, but see Ally.
Addy - I don't really see this one. All the letters are there, but i'd save Addy for an Adeline, Addison or Adelle.
My favorite nicknames for Delilah are Della and Lilah
