@tillytown

TatianaBis if you can't comment without being a dick maybe you should stop. Moving on, how about Benjie, Codie or Thierrie
Or perhaps you might stop misspelling names and understand the implications of doing so for your kids.

Jamie/Jaimie
Frankie (prefer as short for Francis, Franklin, and similar)
Kenzie
Lennie
Lockie (short for Lachlan)

@Violetlavenders

Louie is becoming the more popular spelling in the UK. It makes the pronunciation clear.

Luis and Louis are generally pronounced Loo-is outside of France.

It makes pronunciation clear for people who are not very well educated.

Luis is Spanish.
Louis is Looee in France and the U.K.

Only for, and by, idiots.
Violetlavenders · 22/06/2021 20:41

Or they are from cultures or have links to cultures where Louis is pronounced Lewis (eg the US)

Exactly. St Louis in Missouri for example is pronounced Loo-is. And in Germany Louis is also pronounced Lou-is.

Violetlavenders · 22/06/2021 20:39

Lewis is an island off the coast of Scotland.

And a name!

I'm old fashioned but recommend giving the full name (e.g. Thomas) and then using the amended version as a nickname, so Tommy. Then your child has a choice of whether to go more traditional later. What's cute for a baby isn't necessarily great for an adult becoming a High Court Judge.

I know people will disagree with me, that's the good thing about opinions Wink

TatianaBis · 22/06/2021 20:23

So Lewis is the anglicized of Louis agree

Lewis is an island off the coast of Scotland.
