Would these initials put you off? (Baby names)

Our choice of girls names would give the initials BAD. Would that be a problem or am I overthinking it?

On a separate note, I'm thinking of Toby for if it is a boy, but I don't really like Tobias. Can Toby be short for anything else? Just to give him options when he's older.

Nobody cares, honestly my initials are much worse and nobody cares,

Bad is well bad. Don't do it.

BAD I think I'd avoid. Can you put an extra middle name in?

I have a Toby full name Tobias, no one realised his full name - including my DM and the boy himself - until he was about 6. I always thought if he didn't like Toby, he'd probably call himself by his middle name rather than Tobias, which is similar to Toby.

I'm similarly assuming I shouldn't use a name that spells PIG. For me I think I just can't do it.

I don't think those initials would put me off a name I loved.

Love Tobin for nn Toby.

You cannot use the initials BAD. It's just inviting mockery.

Could you add a second middle name?

Toby could also be short for Tobin or Tobiah.
