[Opinions] Re: Boy names + girly nicknames
in reply to a message by Siân
-I love most of these too, especially the Russian ones. Sasha, Zhenya, Misha, Pasha are all adorable and totally work for guys.
-I actually know a Salvador who is sometimes called Sally. It’s cute.
-Gracie as an NN for Grayson (or other boy names starting with Gra-) is adorable. It would also work for Gratian, which is a much more distinctive full name, imho.
-I’m not a fan of Kady (and variants) for personal reasons. I was called that sometimes when I was younger and always disliked it because it seemed too frilly (I’m not male btw). I guess it’s nice, just not on me.
