| Naming daughter Petra after DH’s dad (Peter) but I literally can’t think of any nicknames/pet names to call her. Can someone think of any? |

| Nope. Just call her schmoopsie or puppy like i call my daughter, whose name has nothing to do with either of those. |

Patrina or even Petrina would be better than Petra.
Petra is not a pretty name. Might as well call the poor kid Covid Petri (as in dish). |

| What's her middle initial? If it's J you could call her PJ |

I would just use the initial personally. Petra is difficult name Do you even like it? |

| I love Petra written down (and there's a Petra in the book Ballet Shoes!) but it's a harsh name. Can you use it as her middle name? |
