Help[Opinions] Re: Ricky
in reply to a message by Lisa
It's far too immature and nny for me as a full given name. I believe children should have a choice as to whether they have a nn or not, and what form that nn will take if they indeed want one. Naming a child a nny name like Ricky takes away that choice.
However, I myself like Ricky as a nn for Richard (of course) or Patrick... But my child could also pick Dick, Rich, or Rick alone for Richard, or Pat, Patsy, Patty, or Rick for Patrick, if he chose.
