Help[Opinions] Re: Candace Nickname Candy
in reply to a message by TMyers
I don't love it. Probably because of pop songs? I can picture it though, and how it could seem cute.
It has a little bit of the same vibe as Brandy - evokes the word strongly - and Sandy. And Mandy, and even Cindy. Feels retro (circa 1980 or earlier), and unpretentious, possibly perceived as tacky by some.
Candace is a solid name and to me, maybe a bit stodgy or stuffy, like Cynthia - a hyperclassic.
I don't think it needs a nickname but I don't think there's a better one than Candy, if it suits a person.
