[Opinions] Re: Philip & Joseph
in reply to a message by Billina
It's up to your child, in the end. While you have some influence, sure, it's possible. But don't be surprised if his friends start calling him by a nn and he permits it. My brother is Pete to the world, but still Peter to my family.
One thought on Joseph: if you like the nn Joss you could start calling him that as a child and preempt Joe. Like Philip, it's still possible to have Joseph remain Joseph. But you're taking a risk.
