Opinions on Francesca?

[lightscameras]

Will I be able to avoid the NNs?

[TotalBlamBlam]

Nicknames may be inevitable but I love the name anyway

[Pipilangstrumpf]

You can avoid the nicknames, of course. But her friends may not.

[Sugarpiehoneyeye]

It's a lovely name. My friends daughter is called Victoria, she avoided nick names altogether. I also know an Alexander, who avoided them too.
It can be done !

[HarleyQuinzel]

One of my favourites but she will become Fran!

[WalterWhitesNipple]

I know 4 Francesca's and everyone calls them Fran or Cheska.

You may be able to avoid nicknames yourself but she may choose her own nickname once she's at school.
