HelpRe: Nicknames
in reply to a message by jwalter
Elizabeth - do any go by their full name? What nn's do you hear the most or least? I know a few Elizabeths who go by their full fn. I know one Lizzy and one Beth.
Katharine/Katherine/Kathryn/Catherine - do any go by their full name? Do you ever hear the nn Kaye? I know two Katherines (one is a Kathryn) who go by their full name. I've never heard the nn Kaye. I mostly hear Katie as a nn. My favorite nns are Cait (even if it is a stretch) and Kitty (for a young child).
Julia - it seems to be a pretty popular baby name right now....I'm wondering if a lot of Julia's will end up just going by Julie? I don't know any Julias who go by Julie. I know people named Julie who are Julies and Julias who stay Julias.
Julianna - Never met one.
Olivia - does this name typically stay in full - no nickname? I've only met two and they both just go by Olivia. I could see the nns Liv (which I love), Olive, Livia, Ollie, and Via.
