Looking for full and nickname pairings like Alexandra - Alexia

[tgifnl]

Hi, we are in a struggle to name our second daughter. We named our first daughter Alexandra, but she goes by as Alexia. We really appreciate this combination as she has a strong full name, but also a very nice and solid "nickname". Now we are trying to find a similar combination for our second daughter, so a nice full name and a nice nickname. Most names we've come by, miss either.

The best we've come up with till now are Larissa - Lara, and Juliette - Julia, but we aren't convinced by both.

Would be great to hear if you know of any similar combinations like Alexandra - Alexia.

Your help is much appreciated!
