Re: This or That Nicknames (girls)
in reply to a message by Seda*
I like your's better, haha!Estella: Other, Tessa (though I adore Stella -- A Streetcar Named Desire is to blame)
Camilla: Callie (Millie is cute too)
Esmeralda: Esme or maybe Emerald, Era is pretty too
Philippa: Pippa or Pippi, as in Longstockings!
Sedalyn: Seda, definitely (honest!)
Calanthe / Calanthia: Other, Callie (but if I named my daughter Calanthe, which I like better, I'd just call her Calanthe)
Juliet / Juliette: Jules is so cool on a girl and for me would be a sort of tribute to Jules Verne, haha (and I prefer Juliet simply because it was Shakespeare's spelling)
Lorelei: Other, Rory
Tallulah: Other, Tula (like the main character in My Big Fat Greek Wedding, "TOO-luh", though I think she spelled it Toula or something)
Margaret: Meg all the way!
Providence: I like Prada (like the designer label -- "PRAH-duh") or Prava ("PRAH-vuh"), Provide, and Pivva (rhymes with Pippa) as nicknames
