[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. You’re asking, I’m answering. I think it’s too cutesy. I hate “little girl names”. Do Margaret, or leave it as a private nickname, or middle name. My husband nixed Joshua as a name but we used it for a middle and one the many nicknames I call our son is Joshy. ;) [/quote] I think think comparing Daisy and Joshy is like comparing apples and oranges. While Daisy may be a nickname for Margaret, it’s not a diminutive. Most nicknames are not diminutive. (William, Bill/Will vs. Billy/Willy). Daisy is also a legitimate name by itself, like Rose, Violet, Iris, etc. For Joshua, Josh would be a common nickname. Joshy is only a diminutive and not a common one. While it’s a cutesy family name for a kid, it would be unlikely that anyone outside the family would ever use that name other than to tease. [/quote]
