We recently found out we're having a girl in May. I love the name Juliet, but I'm worried it'll be shortened to the obvious 'Jules', or 'Julie' (which I really don't like!). Does anyone have any suggestions for other nns we could potentially use? Thanks!

We almost had a Juliet for DC2 (who is a boy) but were also put of by the potential of Julie as a nn. We were going for Etty.

The Juliet I know is Juliet - no abbreviation. It's such a beautiful name. However, an NN may come along that's nothing to do with Juliet, but perfect for your DD.

My friend Juliet is Jules but sometimes Julie/Juju, but is also known by her initials - if you choose a middle name that has a good ring to it she could be JK or JV or something like that!

My DD is Juliet and never called Julie to my knowledge. Full name or Ju, for short - which you may not like but she doesn't mind.

At school (over 20yrs ago! ) there was a girl called Jet.
It was only after leaving school we found out her real name was Juliet.
Cool name either way. Smile
