Will I end up with a baby called Frank? That just makes me think 'Butcher'.

Love Frankie though.

Frank is way nicer than Frankie - Frankie is a girls name imo (a nn for Francesca) every Frankie I know are girls.
Frank is lovely. Frank as a nn for Francis is best. Even Frankie for a nn for Francis. Bur not just Frankie. Not with all the girl frankies around!

Hadn't thought of the amount of girls called Frankie...

I think Frankie is an ace name - it works whatever age the person is.
