I had to look up what Dottie was short for. I always call my daughter dottie or dots but as short form for daughter : ) Her name is Maddie/Madeline.

Pp here. I haven’t read all the replies, but seeing your DH likes gender neutral names, I went to college with a Theodora who went by “Teddy”.

I have a Molly. It actually wasn’t our favorite but grew kind of organically (our older daughter picked it as the baby’s nickname and it turns out our parents liked it a lot too).

Other names we really like / considered:
Nell
Abigail
Lydia
Juniper
Louisa
Rebecca
Naomi
Rosie
Iris
Emily

I saw others suggested Sadie and I like that a lot too (DH didn’t). I have a cousin Jenny which might be conceptually similar too.

We know a Milly who is Mildred, named after her grandmother (or maybe great grandmother).

Bridie/Bridey/Brid are the nicknames for Bridget. Idk if that was a typo but just wanted to be sure that OP didn't get confused.

-Bridget nn Bridey


Birdie is also a nickname for Bridget and is also a nickname for Elizabeth. Not a typo.

—there are many nicknames for many different names.


My favorite head scratchers -- Margaret nn Peggy, Richard nn Hitch, Edward nn Ned (ok that one's just sweet).
