Can this be a name in it's own right?

[iseewhatyoumean]

We like the name Cassie but none of the longer forms e.g. Cassandra. Do you think Cassie can be a name in it's own right without sounding too nicknamey as I'm not keen on nicknamey names. Does anyone know any Cassies? Thanks!

I dont think it's any different from the Carries, Maisies and Kerries of the world.

My Nana was called Cassie, short for Catherine.

Cassis as a non-shortened name is fine on it's own, IMHO though.

I know a cassie, pretty sure she's a cassanndra though. You can make anything a name, but thinnk she's have is it shoort for... following her all the time!

Yes, why not? Cassie is lovely.

A girls i went to school with has a Cassie, its very sweet :)

My GreatAunt Daftapath was the the same a Catherine but only ever called Cassie.

I know a few people called Cassie and they are just Cassie. I really like it by it's own. And people are more accepting of ie/y names as full names now not just as a nn from another name (often they are nicer as well)

I know a Cassie who's a Cassandra and a Cassie who's a Cassidy. The former only uses her full name on official forms, so is 'Cassie' for all intents and purposes. I think it's a lovely name.

I have a 'just' Cassie

She's named after my Granny who was Catherine. I remember her telling me many times over the years that her Daddy called her Cassie.

She died when I was pregnant so DD never got to meet her .

Anyway....yes Cassie is definitely a name in it's own right

I like Cassie and think it's fine on its own. (But I do also like Cassandra very much).

I know a beautiful girl called Cassie,like it very much

I like Cassie a lot. I think it is better in its own right than some.

I've a Cassie who is really Catherine. She loves both names - so do we

I know a Cassie who is just Cassie. I think it is doable but personally I would prefer something a bit more "complete". Was going to suggest Cassia as an alternative to Cassandra.

Cassie is fine on its own :)

Cassie can be short for Clarissa if you like that?

Cassie sounds like air leaking from a pipe.

My favourite girls name. I like it as a shortened version of cassia, but cassie alone is also beautiful.

Just a thought...I know several Cassies...one's a Staffie, one's a Springer...you get the picture...
