Andrea, Elizabeth or Katherine

[Pos1]

Whats your favourite?

Andrea we wouldn't shorten, we were thinking of Lizzie for Elizabeth and Katie for Katherine. Any opinions? Thanks !

I don't like Andrea. Elizabeth and Katherine are both nice and have lots of nicknames, so you and your DD can choose what you all prefer as time goes on.

Oh, Andrea! Really unusual these days and rather lovely.

I think Andrea is lovely and makes a refreshing change from all the Lizzies and Katies around already.

Love all your choices but absolutely love Andrea

Yes, Andrea. No contest.

Andrea. Love it.

Prefer Katherine with a C.

Thanks for the input all

Another vote for Andrea, love it!

To go against the tide - I really don't like Andrea, but love the others!

not keen on andrea at all sorry .to me it sounds dreary sorry .

elizabeth and katherine are both lovely with lots of lovely nn potential.

Elizabeth.

Eeew, not Andrea, sounds really dreary and dated.

the others are lovely.

Eliza

Katherine is sooooooooo done already. Andrea's nice. More unusual these days. Attracts Italians too.

Probably going to out myself now but I am Katherine Elizabeth which was shortened to Katyliz as a small child and then Katy. I now go by Katherine but love the fact that both names can be shortened

"Eeew, not Andrea, sounds really dreary and dated."

But that's because you only know older Andreas - wait until you meet a little cute girl called it and you'll instantly change your association.

Katharine and Elizabeth are indeed quite widely used already. Andrea makes a refreshing change!

I bet most people have never even met an Andrea - don't think it's ever been uber fashionable, and those are the names that don't date.

Andrea is gorgeous. Dree and Andi make nice nickname options too. Elizabeth and Katherine are both lovely too though. Betsy, Elsie, Eliza, Bess and Lizzy all lovely nns. I'd nn a Katherine Kitty if I had one.

percy depends where you live , in scotland i know of at least 5 andreas /andrinas aged in their late 30s to early 50s. which is probably partly why it feels similar to sharon in terms of datedness for me .

Elizabeth is beautiful and you can get Eliza, Lizzie, Liz, Beth and Betty out of it which are really cute. Katherine feels a bit old to me and Andrea a bit common but that's because I teach a lot of Andreas

prefer Catherine or Katie

Had to post on this as I am an Andrea (in my 40's!). Was always an unusual name when I was a child but I wouldnt chose it as its my name! I prefer Elizabeth out of the three names!

I've never even heard the name Andrina at all.
