HelpRe: Alice or Matilda?
in reply to a message by Julie
I think they are both great. What about Alice Matilda or Matilda Alice?
We once had a guinea pig named Matilda, nn Millie. Matilda has been popular in Sweden for some time, and I think Alice is getting more popular now. I think Alice and Matilda are among the top 100 in UK, so it might catch on in USA too.
What about Tilda as nn for Matilda? Tilda is rather popular in Sweden too as a name in its own right. I like Hildy but maybe spell it Mathilda then?
I think Alice Juliet is very beautiful.
I don't see why a nn for Alice is needed. But if you call her Alice all the time and correct people trying to call her Ali, maybe she will continue to call herself Alice. But there are not guarantees, once she has started school
- She said he made a racial slur!
- Racial? She is Swedish!
- Maybe he called her Meatball.

I agree that these two names are getting more and more popular elsewhere. Of course, I live in the between Tryndeeville and Kreatyvtown, so I don't think it'll happen here.
