I'd love to be brave enough to use it. But I think its one of those fantasy names, like Calypso or Bluebell that we all love but wouldn't dare use.

It's a bit harsh imo.

Mousemummy , DSD is called Violet but her Mum and Dad HATED her being called Vi, so they shortened it themselves to V, would that or something similar work?

No.It's horrid imho. And she'll soon get tired of hearing that song.

That's the problem with nn's eh? I also love Vivienne but really dislike Viv!

I like the full version (it is DD's middle name), but I think Clemmie sounds like clammy, which is not so nice!

It's nice but a bit of a mouthful. I imagine it would always be shortened to Clem or Clemmie which are okay.

Lovely. I know one beautiful 20 year old Clementine, always known as Clemmie mind you.
