Help[Opinions] Re: WDYTO my full name and nickname?
in reply to a message by MusicalTwinSiStar2
I really like your full name.
Victoria is international, royal and classic. Lisa is nice. Both Victoria and Lisa are popular in Sweden too. My dd has friends with these names. I like the very German family name Hildegard as mn. Maybe too much as a fn, but great as mn. Tilda and Tilde are popular in Sweden now, maybe Hilda and Hilde will be too.
I really like the name Bettina too. We know a German girl named Tine.
Toia is ok. Though when I see it, I would assume it was pronounced as Toya. Toria would be nice. I think Tori is the most popular nn in UK/USA now, but in Sweden it is still Vicky or Vickan. My dd's friend is called both Victoria and Vicky. I'm not much into nn myself, I much prefer using the full names.

Nice greetings to Sweden! I once made a fun-test on the internet (topic: What language should you learn?) and it told me that I was most likely to learn Swedish. *lol* I'd really like to!
Anyway, I really like Tilda! I pretty much understand why it's so popular in Sweden. As for my nickname, well of course I could also spell it Toya, but since there is no 'y' in Victoria and I really don't like most of those 'i' to 'y' transformations in names I thought it was better to keep Toia. :-)
Cheers,
