[Opinions] Geoffrey!
I adore Geoffey, but I absolutley loathe Geoff/Jeff, and I think it's pretty much unavoidable with that one :( My mum's ex-boyfriend is Jeff, and it's a terrible association for me- we hated him from the start, for some very good reasons.I do worry that potential future dd Elodia, who would most of the time be called Elodie, will get the nn Ellie. Ellie's fine, just not for my child thankyou. And ditto everyone else ont eh Lillian nn Lily. Lillian is so lovely. Oh, and Catherine nn Cathy, althoguh I don't mind Kate. Love Nathaniel, can't stand Nate. Love Patrick, hate Pat. On the flip side, I adore Emmy, but not any of the names it coudl be a nn for. I love Aerie, but I can't find a full anme for it and it's too nicknamey for me. I like Charlie, but not Charles.
