I think Hattie is too nicknamey to be used on its own, but I do think Hattie Fleur is cute.

Cute nn, but way too cute for a full name IMO. I'd hate to be an adult called just Hattie, without the option of a more adult name if I wanted it.Still, would rather be an adult Hattie than an adult Mykenzi so *shrugs* could be alot worse.Combo flows well, but I'd still prefer Harriet Fleur "Hattie".

Hmmm. Hattie is pretty nn-y. Personally, I wouldn't use it on its own. I think of it as a nn for Henrietta. So if Harriet isn't your cup of tea, perhaps Henrietta could work. Or, going off on a wild and crazy tangent, how about Hatshepsut, nn Hattie?But yes, I do see the appeal of Hattie Fleur. Very zippy.

I feel like there is someone here who knows a Hattie that is just Hattie. Either Hattie or Hetty - I can't recall. Maybe beethoven? Hattie Fleur is nouveau-chic!
