[Opinions] Re: Some Old-Fashioned Nicknames I Adore
in reply to a message by lac
I like Millie and Minnie; Effie's kind of cute. I think it's odd how unused Fanny and Nan are now a-days considering how well used they used to be, but I guess that's true of many old names. How do you pronounce Bridie? Bri-dee or Bree-dee? For that matter, how do you prn. Bride? With a long I? Maybe it could work for Bidelia.

Bride is pr like the English word.
Bridie is like the English word with a long "ee" sound on the end.
