[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a 2d Circuit judge, Denny Chin- so I guess there's the counterpoint for saying "she'll never be successful if Denny is at the top of her resume."[/quote]

But he is a man! [b] Big difference. [/b]   At least don't saddle her with a nickname of a dude!  Danielle is cute!  And then you can call her Denny?  Why do this to your child who will have to live with this name for the rest of their lives ( or go through the hassle of changing it?)

Why? Dennys who are men can be successful, but Dennys who are women are doomed to failure, because...?[/quote]

You are missing the point I was trying to make.  You never said Denny Chin was a male or female so it sounded like he was a successful woman with that name.  I am not assuming that op's Dennie/Denny/Deni will fail at life.  What  I am saying is it is fine as a nn as long as you give your daughter a real girl's name so[b] she can choose[/b] to go by her male name or her own name!  That is what I am saying.

If you give her only one choice than there is a chance that she will get tired of explaining why her mother gave her a boys nickname as her name.[/quote]
