[Opinions] Re: Your feelings on nicknames
I like longer names for nicknames .. and the idea of an unusual long name with a familiar nick, too.I'm not sure I care for the ones you've listed, though. To me, nicknames need to either be natural - what you blurt out instead of the full name when you're rushed or very affectionate - or if they're not, they need to be given spontaneously to a particular person who "fits" them.Ones I like:
Girls:
Annis, nn Ann
Belrose, nn Belle or Rose (except I don't care for the name Belrose much.)
Corisande, nn Cora .. or Cori. Coralie would also be Cora / Corie
Emmaline, nn Emmie
Jessamyn / Jessamine, nn Jessa (or Jessie)
Keturah, nn Ketta or Kitty - neat!
Mahalia, nn Halie
Miriam, nn Mira
Boys:
Corben / Korben, nn Cory
Cornelius, nn Neil - This one is really cool!
Isaac, nn Zac
Josiah, nn Joe
Judah, nn Jude
Malcolm, nn Mac
Rayner, nn Ray
Tremaine, nn Tré (or Trey?)
Westley, nn Wes or West
