Help[Opinions] Love the names, but not the nicknames
I love these names, but just not the nicknames.
Would there be a way to avoid this or will James always be called Jim, Jimmy or Jamey.
Here are a few of the names:
Andrew - nn Andy or Drew
James - nn Jim, Jimmy or Jamey
Joseph - nn Joey or Joe
Edward - nn Ed or Eddie
Kenneth, Kendrick, Kenrick - nn Ken or Kenny (for Kendrick or Kenrick I would like Kenry as nn)
Penelope - nn Penny
Adelaide - nn Ada or Addy (I do like Adele or Alice as a nn for Adelaide)
With other names I like the nicknames.
Finley - nn Finn
Tobiah - nn Toby
Benjamin, Benedict - nn Ben, Benji
Thaddeus - nn Thad or Tad
Abigail - nn Abby
Matthew - nn Matt
What's your opinion, avoid the names, or just accept the fact that, eventhough you don't like it, everybody will call your child Penny (*yuk*) instead of the gorgeous name Penelope you loved so much.
