[Opinions] Re: Augustine (for a girl)

Aggie is a perfectly normal nn for Augustine (which I pronounce "ah-gus-TEEN" for a girl). Why ever not?

I agree that Gus or Gussie is not the best for a girl, even though I knew one in school. Another possible nn would be Tina. But Aggie is by far my favorite.

I think Aggie is just a concern because technically it should be "Auggie", because the name is "Aw-gus-teen" and not "AG-uh-steen" (in my accent).

I like Aggie a lot too. I just wasn't sure if it was too much of a leap from "Og" to "Ag". :)
