Does anyone know any nice but unshortenable names? People shortening lovely names bugs the crap out of me so I need something that it can't happen to!! We love Freya but no doubt it will be shortened to 'Frey' and she will be far from an old piece of material!!

You'll probably find that people will lengthen a name if it can't be shortened. EG Janey, Jilly, Annie, etc.

My name can't be shortened and it pissed me off no end as a child.
