Hi ladies

Our first child is due next April, a little girl. Very excited!

We are considering names and both like the name Livvy. We don't like Olivia so that isn't an option.

What do you think of Livvy? It seems to be seldom chosen :-)

Any thoughts very welcome

We don't really like Libby :-(

Sorry missed you last post.

Eve is nice! Smile

Eve is lovely Smile

I wouldn't. I was called Livvy until the age of about 9 or 10. Great for a child but I didn't like it as a pre-teen/teenager. I think it's best as a nickname.

Do you like Libby? That can be short for Elizabeth as well as some other names.

Congratulations on your baby. Flowers Smile

Thanks for the feedback, reaction is as I feared. How about Eve?

My name is Olivia and I hate being called Livvy. I think it is a nickname, not a name on its own.

I don't like it as a full name.

IoraRua · 11/11/2015 21:44

Not liking it.
How about Libby?

I like it as a nickname (short for Olivia obviously) but don't really see it as a name in its own right
