[quote=Anonymous]I love the name "Caroline" and it shortens naturally to "Cara," which is Spanish for "dear." People will shorten the name--don't hate them. A wonderful girl named Harriet was called "Hallie" by many people (because I think they didn't like the name "Harriet" for a little girl) until the girl herself told people, politely, that she preferred "Harriet." Deep breath, and wait until Caroline is old enough to speak for herself. If she doesn't, then...maybe she likes the nicknames. Think of what we call our children and our loved ones: sweetie, honey, sweetie pie, sugar pea, ladybug, baby bear...people just DO it. We have ridiculous ones in our household that I used until my daughter asked me to stop. Good luck, OP! [/quote]
