[Opinions] Nickname for Josephine
Replies
Josie.
I like both. But I guess if I had to pick one of the two it would be Jo, just for the Little Women sentimentality of it.
I very much like Joseph, nn Joe, for a boy, which rather puts me off girl Jo people. And Jo is also used as a nn for Joanna and especially Joanne. Josie is good, female but not frilly.
Fifi is too poodle. I knew sisters named Josephine and Roberta at school. They were known, voluntarily, as Jodie and Bert. Nice girls.

Josy / Fine
I'm not a particular fan of nicknames, but Josy suggests itself.
Fine [fee-nuh] makes sense for me, too.

I prefer Jo, as I like the simplicity of it.
Out of the two: Josie
My favorite nickname is Sephy

Jo is cuter, more grown-up. Josie is dowdy and cutesy at the same time. Jo pitches softball, laughs loud and long, makes great spaghetti, has a million friends and the men love her. Josie slumps at her desk chewing on her hair and wishing she was more like Jo.
Jodie could be a nn for Josephine, as could Jojo, J, or even Phina, though that one seems pretty contrived.

I hate Josie for no real reason, so it's an easy choice for me: Jo. Jo is the best thing about Josephine, imo. I like Joey, too.
I've seen Posy as a nn for Josephine, though it doesn't make sense to me. It's horribly cutesy.
