Help[Opinions] Re: Nicknames
in reply to a message by jwalter
Elizabeth - do any go by their full name? What nn's do you hear the most or least?
My closest friend Elizabeth goes by Liz/Lizzie to her friends, but to adults she's usually Elizabeth. I know an adult Liz as well.
Katharine/Katherine/Kathryn/Catherine - do any go by their full name? Do you ever hear the nn Kaye?
~I know one Katherine, and she goes by Kat or Katherine, and two Kathryns who go by Katie. I do, however, know a Kathleen who goes by Kaye.
Julia - it seems to be a pretty popular baby name right now....I'm wondering if a lot of Julia's will end up just going by Julie?
~I know one Julia, and she's called Julia/Julie/Jul/Juls interchangably, I think.
Julianna - ?
~The Julianna I know goes by her full name.
Olivia - does this name typically stay in full - no nickname?
~I used to call my cousin Olivia "Ollie" but it was rather short-lived; she's just Olivia now. The other Olivias I know go by their full name.
Do you hear the people sing? Lost in the valley of the night. It is the music of the people who are climbing to the light! For the wretched of the earth, there is a flame that never dies. Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise...
