Shirl is the usual nickname for
Shirley afiak - my Great-Aunt
Shirley gets called Shirl by her sister (my grandmother,
Adele).
Kimber is an ok nickname for
Kimberley. I prefer
Kim, with Kimmie as an option for when cutesy is required. My cousin Kymberley "
Kym" gets called Kimba (I don't know if you had it in
France, but in the 80s there was a kids' cartoon show featuring a white lion cub named Kimba, hence
Kym's nickname) and also Kimbo, which is a very Australian-style nickname.
