Help[Opinions] Re: Nicknames in middle name spot?
in reply to a message by Higuma Kanora
I don't like nicknames as full given names in the first place, but as middle names it feels especially silly. Anything with an -ie/-y end in particular just sounds absurd in that spot - especially when you consider middle names come up most often in formal request contexts.
That said a lot of your examples are fine. Leo and Liv are full names in their own rights, and while Sophie feels nicknamey in an English speaking context, it's also the proper French form of the name. Katie, though? Nope. Silly.
