Not much else you can shorten it to. Sometimes she's missy moo.

me me - with or without the thingy on top of the e which I can't work out how to do

Emy or mimi

Ham69 · 17/04/2013 21:05

I call mine Ezzy. Not exactly a shortening but it just stuck. She'd liked me to call her Esmia (she's 3) but I'm not so keen

My nickname is esmee! The weekend I met husband he was being called Quasimodo by his friends (no idea why!). So they called me esmeralda, which has stuck for 15 1/2 years... Although has now been nn to esmee. (not sure if that helps, but Esmé is quite short and maybe doesn't need one

FloellaDaVille · 17/04/2013 21:56

My Esme (who's an Esmee not an Esmay) was called Esme so it couldn't really be shortened. She is sometimes an Es though.

dimdommilpot · 17/04/2013 21:57

Mine usually gets B (font know why), but frequently gets called ezza bezza boo boo or Esmerelda. She is 2.5.

Mimi is nice, but no shorter than Esme!

My Esme (es-mee) is also Es or Essie. She frequently gets called Es by her school friends.

What about 'May'?

mewkins · 18/04/2013 21:26

Essy?

TiredyCustards · 18/04/2013 21:34

Smee - like the pirate in Peter Pan.
