I think its cuter on a girl than a boy but definitely works for any gender. I dislike the name Ron but Ronnie on its own or as a nickname for Cameron, Kieron/Kieran, Saffron or Erin/Eron would be fun

I think it needs to be a nickname for either gender. Ronnie short for Ronald and Roni short for Veronica.

I don't like Ronnie for a boy; for a girl, it is a good reason not to name a daughter Veronica.

I like Ronnie as a nickname for Frederonne.

I only know Ronnie as a nickname for Veronica. Otherwise it’s not so good as just a first name. Probably best on boys.

Not for a girl, only as a nn for a boy

I prefer Vonnie as a nn to Veronica

I love Ronnie as the nickname for Veronica and Ronald, as suggested on its site here. I don't have any bad associations with it, so I have no problems with it. I also love the variant, Ronne.

Bonnie is no fave, but I have nothing against it, personally, and no bad associations with this one either, since there are a couple of amazing well-known people and characters with the name, whether real (Bonnie Parker excluded for obvious reasons) or fictional. It is cute, though.

I prefer Roni to Ronnie. I guess Ronnie us fine as a nn for Veronica but I’d just call Veronica Veronica.

I don’t really like Bonnie, it’s a bit inconsistent.

It feels cheap on a girl, like an old-time gangster's moll. Veronica's such a pretty name to do that to.

On a boy it also sounds kind of cheap, but not like an old-time gangster, like the female Ronnie's boyfriend. It sounds more like a kid who is always getting detention at school or banned from the schoolbus for throwing things and getting in fights and mouthing off. The kind of kid that may or may not have quite a bit of jail time ahead of him.
Ron is a nice, friendly nn for the rather stiff Ronald.

I like it as a nn for Veronica. Roni is pretty.

Ronnie/Ron on boys just makes me think of Ron Howard.
