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.*previously posted as summitseeker*

I LOVE Gracie for Gratian!I personally like Kady for Arkady, but that's neither here nor there, and I can't understand your point of view.I've never known a Salvador, but I know a Gabriel who goes by Gabby (and he's probably 40) and I think it's awesome.

Béla is a popular (formal) first name among males in Hungary, there, where, it is not even perceived as a feminine name.
