[quote=Anonymous]While I don't think you should change her name, I think you would be fine to normalize the spelling (of both the first and middle names) if applicable. Changing Mystee to Misty can make a world of difference. You say there's no simple nickname for her name, but almost every letter of the alphabet has a corresponding diminutive nickname. Bea, Cece, Dee, Fi, Gigi, Jay, Kay, Elle, Em etc. If her name does happen to be one of the few letters that doesn't have a nice diminutive, then I'd suggest just calling her by initials.[/quote]
