Diminutives of Isaiah

[doceodocere]

We both love this name but I feel it's a bit heavy for everyday use.

Ise or Siah don't work for me, are there any alternatives I've overlooked?

Iz
Izzie - though generally female for Isabel or Lizzie

Ize - yes
Siah - doesn't work for me. Female singer who always hides her face (Sia)

Zac - not really isaiah, but Isaiah is very similar to Isaac

Zi /Xi

It's a tricky one....

[PrincessHairyMclary]

I teach an Isaiah he goes by Izzy.

[ifigoup]

Si?

[doceodocere]

I had thought Zac. It's nice, but I'm not sure I like it quite enough.

What do you think about Ziggy?

[DontKillMyVibe]

Iz/Is?

[DesertOrDessert]

Ice, Ike, Zay.

But the Isaiah I know goes by the whole name. He's 5.

[LucyMouse]

Si is fairly common on the US.
Are you thinking Zac as a nn for Isaiah? I'm confused.

[Twitterqueen]

Ziggy is nice, but it makes me wonder why you don't call him Sigmund instead?

[doceodocere]

IKE!!!!!

Love it, thank you!

[doceodocere]

twitter Sigmund has been vetoed by DH, as has Siegfried

Lucy you're right that Zac is a bit of a stretch from Isaiah.

The other 2 dc have biblical names so Isaiah is a good fit.

[DontKillMyVibe]

Yep, ike is a good nn - I like that

[ingenvillvetavardukoptdintroja]

Love this name. Dh is obsessed with being able to shorten names to 'something cool' I'm thinking Zye??
Ike also awesome!

[doceodocere]

I think we're set on Isaiah nn Ike! We had two others we were trying to choose between but couldn't decide, neither felt quite right. This is ideal.
