[Opinions] Re: Which names would you avoid simply because you dislike the nicknames?
in reply to a message by Lily
Samuel and Samantha- I don't like Sam, and I've never known a Samuel or Samantha who didn't go by the abbreviated form fairly frequently, so I'd hesitate to use them, even though I LOVE Samuel.
Nathaniel and Nathan- I think both of these are handsome sturdy names, but Nate takes away all the charm
Edmund- Ed isn't great, Eddie is downright awful
Constance- Connie isn't that bad, but I don't like it
Frances- I adore this name, it's been one of my top ones for forever, but I really hate Frankie and Franny and Fran isn't great either
Ezekiel- I dislike Zeke, it's just such an unattractive sound
Lawrence- I don't think it would be a default at all, but Larry is awful
Stuart- Stu just makes me think of food or someone stewing over a situation
