[Opinions] I need some full names to go with my favorite nicknames!
Allie
Roxie
Sadie
Ellie
Lola
Bella
KateI love all these names, but wouldn't use them as fn's. I'm not big on the Alexandra, Allison, Roxanne, Catherine, etc, so if you have any different ideas i'd love that!

I haven't checked all the other replies, so apologies for any repeats.Allie - Alayna, Alcyone, Alexandria, Alexia, Alice, Alissa, Aliza
Roxie - Roxana, Roxane (can't think of anything more for these)
Sadie - Sarah ... anything else I can think of would be a massive stretch (but Saskia, Samantha and Savannah did come to mind)
Ellie - Elaine, Eliana, Eliane, Elijah (have seen it on a female), Eliot (this too), Elissa, Eliza, Ellery, Eloise, Elspeth
Lola - Loredana, Loretta, Louisa, Lourdes
Bella - Annabel, Annabella, Arabella, Belphoebe, Christabel, Christabella, Isabel, Isabella, Mirabel, Mirabella, Rosabel, Rosabella
Kate - Kathleen, Katerina, Katrina, Katarina, Catalina ... all variants of

Allie - hard to get away from Allison.
Adela/ Adèle/ Adeline/ Adelia, Alida, Anneli, Aliyah, Ainslee, Althea, Alanis, Alanna/h, Lilian, Linnea, LeilaniRoxie- Xaviera? Hmmmm.... I'd go with some Ro-name and just call her that, NNs can be a personal choice and not only the established ones, I think.
Róisín, Roslyn, RhonwenSadie - ooohh, I like!
Sara/h, Sinéad, Sidonia/ Sidonie, Daisy, Damaris, Denise, DesdemonaEllie - Elaine, Elena, Elin/Elina, Ellinor, Evelina, Elvira, Elizabeth, Ellen, Eileen, Elise - could work with so many E-names.Lola - I LOVE Lola. My personal take on it is that I want to name a future daughter Viola and call her Lola, after a dear relative named and always called those two.
Charlotta/ Carlotta, Lorelei, Lorna, Louisa, Leona, Olympia, Paloma, Paola... I think one can be pretty creative with Lola, it is not so bound to a certain name. If somebody told me they had a daughter named Olivia or Colleen and called her Lola I wouldn't question it.

Blinkin: I heard that coming a mile away.
Robin Hood: Right-o, Blinkin, very good.
Blinkin: Pardon? Who's talking?

Allie: Allen, Alyssa, Alana, AaliyahRoxie: Roxanna, Roxalana (I ran across that one on a site listing, of all things, women executed in the US all the way back to colonial times.) Roxette (a pop band from the eighties, they were Swedish but were very popular here in the states too.)Sadie: Sarah, Mercedes, maybe Sade (like the singer, pronounced Sharday?)Ellie: Eleanor, Elizabeth, Ellen, Elaine? Michelle? Danielle? Joelle? Noelle?Lola: God, I can't stand this name, but traditionally it's used as a nn for Dolores. You could use Lolita but that has very unsavory connotations, it's come to mean a young girl who is inappropriately sexually experienced and promiscuous.Bella: Hate this one too, but Isabella/Isabel/ Annabelle, Arabella, and those could also be full names for Ellie.
