I had/have a friend called Prue. I've always thought it sounded like, well poo. Or a prune. Kinda weird. Only fits specific people. Was good on my friend though.

Such a cute name! But, I'm kinda torn; I feel like this is more of a nickname, and I would want a longer version for e.g professional situations. I'm not a fan at ALL of the longer versions; Prudence has an ishy meaning, Prunella? Really? PRUNElla? I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to give it a really hard pass.

I would never use this as a nickname, it sounds mean.

My daughter's name is Prue, not shortened from anything at all. It is short and sweet and not very common. I have not met a Prue anywhere near my daughter in age. I have heard of others much older than her, she's 13 now. Her full name is Prue Alice. My dad used to call her Prudle or noodle. When she was a baby I would call her 'Prue Bear' like 'Pooh Bear'.

Reminds me of a prune. Who wants to give their daughter a nickname that depicts "prune," or otherwise suggests that "Prune" truly IS her given first name.

In the books 'Ghostgirl' (not sure who wrote it) and 'Love Lessons' (by Jacqeline Wilson) there are characters called Prue. I like this name.
