Billiam, nickname Billy is lovely.

Billy or Willy on their own, not.

RuthW · 28/09/2022 12:33

William, nn Billy is lovely.

Billy on it's own - no

Lilacsunflowers · 28/09/2022 11:26

I guess people swap the W for a B when shortening William to avoid Willy Blush

Lilacsunflowers · 28/09/2022 11:26

Silly Billy

MagpiePi · 28/09/2022 07:59

William is ok.

CharlieBoo · 27/09/2022 22:46

Penguinsaregreat · 27/09/2022 10:26

I really dislike it, don’t get the love for it. Each to their own I guess.

Ilovedthe70s · 27/09/2022 09:59

Love it, one of my sons is named Bill

HerbErtlinger · 27/09/2022 09:54

My favourite name. We were going to call DS William but known as Billy but DP had second thoughts as he already had a Harry. I still regret not using it

bloominglovelyorange · 27/09/2022 09:51

I love the name Billy

OldTinHat · 26/09/2022 23:47

Fine, but needs to be William on the bc.

SkyeBlue28 · 26/09/2022 22:03

Idratherbepaddleboarding · 26/09/2022 22:01

Love it. But it is my dog’s name 😂.

Billyv · 26/09/2022 22:01

I'm just giving my baby William a last sleepy cuddle and dream feed. We call him Bill or Billy most of the time, he's such a cheerful little chap, it really suits him. So obviously that's a yes from me, although clearly I'd second going with William nn Billy.

That's a bookcase.

Love but would go with William, nn Billy.

This - it’s nice, but it’s kind of cute and naughty - he might want a more grown up option for when he grows up.

Janedoe82 · 26/09/2022 21:55

William is nice. Not Billy.

Jumpthehoneycomb · 26/09/2022 21:50
