What can Ophelia be shortened to?

[Apphia]

Given that it's the only name DH and I agree on, our DD is very likely to be called Ophelia.

I'm struggling to think however what it can be shortened to... Not keen on Fee which seems to be the obvious route.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Pheli

Lia!

Lia

or Lee

LOL at oaf - I came on to post that too!!!

feel-ya.

Um, why does it have to be shortened? And what's wrong with Fee?

fi-fi

Offy - handy for when you want some alcohol.

Fifi is a great nickname!

Uff Uff (that thing that Makka Pakka has)

Fifi. That's what my Ophelia gets called.

Just O?

Or Ollie?

I think you could just about get away with Effie, which is lovely!

Ola?

Fee, which people will think is Fiona

Effie is, as Binkster suggested, lovely. I have never met a mean Effie!

Pheely - one of the characters in Fiona Walkers books.

Opie - pronounced as in Oh-pee, not Oh-pie.

I like it though, lovely name.

Philly. That's what I'd call a friend called Ophelia
