[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't do this if the nickname is an obvious, common nickname, like Liz for Elizabeth, Tom for Thomas, Katie for Katherine, etc. People will definitely use it no matter what you want, and your kid might even decide to use it as a form of rebellion if they're cunning like that. OTOH there is a plausible nickname for my son's name that I don't like, but we decided to go for it anyway because the name itself is not common and neither is the nickname. Think something like the name Hickory and the nickname Hick (that is not actually it). [/quote]
