If you like a name but not the nicknames

Do you just get over it or just try and change the nicknames or pick a different name?

for example I like Clementine but really can’t stand clem or clemmy. I like Elowen but there are so many Ellie’s in my current child’s life! Would you just decide to go with other names because if this?

I'd choose the nickname I liked even if I didn't like the longer name much.
