Hi
Really stuck for girls ideas
I like Jay/Jaya
Callie (Cal)
Edith
Jackie (Jack)
All four of the names I first liked in books where the female character (of that name) was strong and adventurous etc.
I would like the name to have a masculine nickname but also be a girl's name in its own right.
Thoughts on my ideas/ new names please
Thanks

I really like Edith, but I don't think it naturally shortens to Ed, if that's what you were going for.

I am currently loving Matilda shortened to Mat(t) or Matty
