[Opinions] Re: Could you use a 4/5 syllable name without a nickname?

Of course!
Is Augustina even a name?
My name is Elizabeth, and it is perfectly fine in full form. Unfortunately my surname is just as many letters.
Eliza makes for a very sophisticated nickname. Lily is not a nickname for Elizabeth.
Magdalena (if pronounced in a German way) is great in full form.
Thomasina.
Theodora/Theodosia
Parthenia

I know ;) I have seen it used as a nickname for Elizabeth quite often, though, which annoyed me a bit.
Really? I don't think it should be used as a nickname for Elizabeth...Lillian, maybe, though.
