Re: Birdie
in reply to a message by AppalachianPie
That is a really hard one to pair. It risks coming off as too cutesy in a combo. I thought I preferred it as a nn, but after doing some combos I can totally get into it on its own. She's good at baking pies and doing the quickstep.
I'd pair it with stuff like this:
Birdie Fenella
Birdie Margaret
Birdie Virginia
Birdie Agatha
Birdie Harriet
Birdie Phaedra
Birdie Roisin - aww

Too true.

I left out the part about the quickstep, but I responded to New_Chloe with this exact same sentiment (before even seeing this)! I like the imagery the name gives me.
Birdie Margaret, Birdie Harriet, and Birdie Agatha are very, very nice and warm. Love them, and proof that Birdie doesn't need a simple one-syllable name to retain the coziness that I get from it.
I do like the look of Birdie Roisin, but will have to sit with it.
Thanks!

Great minds think alike. :)
What about Anglicizing it to Birdie Rosheen? Or another Rose name with Birdie?
Birdie Roselle
Birdie Rosemary
Birdie Roslyn
Birdie Rhosyn
Birdie Rose
Birdie Rosalie
Birdie Roseanne
Birdie Rosanna
Birdie Rosabel
Birdie Rosaleen
Birdie Rosamund
Nah, those aren't as good for me. Rosaleen, Rosheen, or Rhosyn are alright, I guess. They just don't have the same domestic effect. But maybe you like some? I do like the idea of Birdie with roses. Because you know, they'd be the print on her apron while she's baking the pies. :)

Birdie Rosalind would be pretty!

Hmm, I do like Birdie Rosaleen. Quite cute. And even though Birdie and Rosalie both end in -ie, I'm loving that combo, too. The more I see Birdie Roisin, the more I like it. Birdie Rosabel is darling! Love it!

You know what I like! :D
