Help[Opinions] love the full name, hate the nickname
Do you have any names where you love the full name, but hate the obvious nickname? Would you use the name anyway?
Mine are
Anthony (I hate Tony)
Aurora (I hate Rory)
Robert (I hate Bob)
Amelia & Amity (I hate Amy)
Laurence (I hate Larry)
I might use Robert or Laurence, because I'm not sure Bob and Larry would be givens, and they have other good nicknames (I like Rob and Lance). I just can't bring myself to seriously consider Anthony or Aurora though, because of the nicknames. I just couldn't stand it if my kid went by Tony or Rory. :P
