lolo as a nickname for charlotte

[PearlFawn]

What are your thoughts?

Sounds ridiculous.

Don't nicknames just 'happen' ? It doesn't sound great and probably won't catch on.

Why?

charlotte has an energetic personality

No don’t do it

Anyway when she gets to high school all her mates will call her Char

she is in high school and she wants a nickname

I'm sure she does.

what do you mean

Lolo doesn't make sense to me... someone will ask what her real name is and you'd assume it would be something like Lolita or Louise. Definitely not Charlotte!

Have a lively personality, obviously.

C'mon you know Lolo sounds like a working girl.

Do you love your daughter?

Don't call her Lolo then.

Why would you call your daughter Charlotte, and then actually call her LoLo?

Why?

No, don't like it.
What does she want to be called, is it her choice?

What does she want??

Charlie? Lottie?

Has she asked for a nickname?

I have a name that is shortened. I hate it. Call me by my name.

lolo sounds like a dogs name. As she’s high school age, I think asking her friends to call her Lolo will be a hard sell.

Hello Charlotte. Don't call yourself Lolo, dear, it sounds silly and affected. Anyway, I really think you should be asleep so night night. I won't say anything to your mum.

yes she wants a nickname as everyone else has one

I misread that as iolo - pronounced like ilo and thought it was really cool: not Lolo so much but iolo?

Don’t nicknames just kind of happen? You don’t just announce what your nickname is to people who have known you for years. That’s just asking for kids to take the piss out of her.

Whatever you like

It's absolutely a not OK scenario where your mother gives your nickname.

Ohh OP.

Exactly. Choosing a nickname for yourself is never going to work. Certainly not something like lolo which sounds like a dog or a character in a children's book.

Why doesn't she start using Charlie or Lottie

chazzer. ...is the only one wurse than lolo.
