1.
Bella
or
Isabella?
Hate them both but at least Isabella doesn't sound so much like someone's poodle.
2.
Katie
or
Katherine?
Katherine, if I had to, but the remotest possibility she might be called Katie at some time by someone would put me off.
3.
Theo
or
Theodore?
Theodore, but call him Ted.
4.
Liam
or
William?
William, but I wouldn't be all that happy about it.
5.
Zeke
or
Ezekiel?
Neither one and you can charge me a fee for not choosing. lol
6.
Stacy
or
Anastasia?
I actually like both of these. I think I'd pick Stacy, just to be a bit different.
7.
Heidi
or
Adelaide?
Heidi, hands down.
8.
Jenna
or
Jennifer?
Jenna, hands down.
9.
Alexa
or
Alexandra?
Alexandra, but only because everytime I called her name, people's phones would wake up nearby. I'd prefer Alexis.
10.
Nora
or
Eleanor?
I guess I'll have to pay a double fee, because I hate them both.

Isabella?

Unfortunately, in my experience, Alexis and Alex are probably still going to engage with the Alexa. Naming her after a person’s name was so stupid.
Honestly, fair enough on not liking either name. I, too, dislike both Eleanor and Nora.

I prefer the full names over the nicknames in all options.
I can tell you that I prefer all the full names over each nicknames.
However, I do prefer:
- Will or Billy to William, much more over Liam (I do like, however...).
- Addie instead of Heidi (I like too) for Adelaide, but Heidi simply doesn't compute as nn for the name to me.
- Jen or Jenny for Jennifer. I prefer Jenna (love it) as a full given name here.
- Ellie for Eleanor, since I don't like Nora.
I like the nickname options for everyone else.
I don't like either Zeke and Ezekiel, but the full name here, I guess.
