[quote=Anonymous]I also share a name with my cousin. We have different first names---variants of each other---but the same nickname. We were named after different grandparents. Overall it has been fine, but I'm the older one, and I've always thought it was weird. When I've introduced people to my family at events (birthdays as a kid, S/Os when older), I can tell they do a double take. If the cousin never reverts back to the nickname it won't come up this way. That said, family members who remember and the cousin herself may find it very weird. So bottomline is that yes, you can do it. Yes, it will be fine. But also yes, it is weird. [/quote]
