Weirdly, I've actually heard Hank for Harold before...
I think nns that don't come from a person's "real" name are just fine, so long as the, uh... name-holder? likes them.
Teddy's a great nn. If he decides to go by Teddy when he goes to school and his mn isn't Theodore, the teacher might be sort of "Huh?" at first, but it probably won't matter much. I think it's legitimate, and adorable to boot!
