Help[Opinions] Re: The March Sisters and how would you change them
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
I like Margaret, but not Meg; not any of its nns actually. Jo = the author, known as Louie: I don't enjoy Louisa or Josephine, so let's rename her Frances, nn Fran. Elizabeth is lovely but its nns aren't; she can be Isabel. And Amy if I remember correctly was used because May (LMA' middle name of course) was a family surname and Amy is an anagram of it.I prefer May.
Margaret, no nn
Frances, nn Fran
Isabel, nn Belle if necessary
May!
Margaret, no nn
Frances, nn Fran
Isabel, nn Belle if necessary

You could also use May as a nickname for Margaret maybe
True, and that would remove the two matching initials problem! OK:
Margaret, nn May
Frances, nn Fran
Isabel, nn Belle
Agnes. It doesn't particularly suit the character, but it would give her something to react against, and that would be in character.

Interesting you say that and I'm only now noticing the May / March connection
