Help[Opinions] Re: Thoughts on a nickname for my still-regretful name choice....
in reply to a message by Lily
Hi Lily, I tend to agree with you on the nn front but am having to really think what will get me through this period while her name stays the same, so I am getting more creative with the nickname idea than I would normally ever want to...and you are right about the idea of a fishing-for-compliments thread of sorts-as every time someone does say something nice abut the name (as you did with your imagery) it helps bring me out of my funk and gives me warm feelings and an appreciation for the name, no-matter the ie ending. I am sure I would not have picked this name if it were truly that awful, I just am still struggling with it a week later.
I like Thalia prn. Talia too, tha-LYE-ah is a mouthful and I don't care for it either. The only pronunciation I grew up knowing was THAIL'ya, as I've mentioned, which is what I would have used but also what wasn't winning me over, not to mention the multiple pronunciations of the name were another reason we went with Rosalie.
for Rosalieall the intuitive nicknames are the ones I don't like. I too like Violet-I just don't know about switching it...
Thank you for your thoughts, I'll mull Violet over too.
