HelpRe: Minnie
in reply to a message by hylo
As a full name I prefer Maisie, but as a nn I love both and think that they both work.
I like Minnie as a nn for Minerva. I slightly prefer Millie over Minnie. I like Millie as a nn for Millicent or Matilda. I also love Tillie as a nn for Matilda. Silly Tillie Millie!
I like Maisie as a nn for Marguerite and other Margaret names. Maisie works especially well for Marguerite since Daisy also works as a nn. I'd sometimes call her Maisie Daisy.
To give you an idea of how I feel about nn's I gave my little sister as many as I could. She hated most of them, although she likes Nick, Nicky, and Snickerdoodle. Our best friend growing up found one I missed which is Nickel which she likes. My sister Nicole's least favorite was Knick-knack Paddy-Whack, Give Your Dog a Bone! This Old Man Came Rolling Home! Her second least favorite was Nick Knack. She also hated Nick Louie which my mom came up with which was what originally inspired me. She also hated Nicola pronounced like in the Ricola commercial which my mom started but I continued.

Favorite Names:
