Help[Opinions] Re: Christy
in reply to a message by zachlyn
Crystal- My sister is named Christy (full name) and she often gets asked if it's short for Crystal. I've heard Crystalina before too. It's a bit nicer than Crystal (unless Crystal is right up your alley :)
Christina- I don't think Christina is that dated anymore. To me it doesn't have the same stigma that say Betty or Debbie has for their eras. Plus, didn't all of the Ashleys, Heathers, and Tiffanys somehow outnumber the Christinas? Seemed like it among my friends.
Christine (my favorite)- Maybe you could name your daughter Christine anyway? Sometimes I feel like my mom should have just named me Mary. She had a really good friend at the time I was born named Mary, and not wanting to offend by having to say, "no, she's not named after my friend Mary," she named me something else. She still calls me Mary to this day when she wants to get my attention. It's completely different from my real name, but it has become my nickname.
I think Neila and Christy sound nice together, and I'm a big fan of Christine (plus it's so classy and because of the Phantom of the Opera I feel that it always will be)
