Can I call a baby girl Andi or is this setting them up to fail?!?

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

My Daughter is Andie, she's 5 and I absolutely love it on her. Named her after the cheerleader from Goonies.

Not on it,s own no. Andrea is much nicer.

I had a friend at primary school called Andrea who was known as Andi until her teens when she reverted back to her full name. I'd go with that, personally.

Any particular reason to spell it just with an I? Not Andie?

If you're not sure, you could use Andrea and then the kid can decide if they forever want to go through the "yes I'm a woman" or own it.

Horrible. It's a middle aged bloke's name.

I quite like it.

Makes me of the actress from 4 weddings and a funeral.
Perfectly fine name though.
