Do you think Loli works as a nn for Florence?

Lo-lee or Lolly?

I think they're both awful tbh and a bit pointless when you've got a lovely name like Florence to start with. It's no worse as a nn for Florence than it would be for any other name though.

Loli (or lolly) is something you eat. Not a good nn IMHO. My neighbour's daughter is Florence, and gets called CiCi (pronounced Cee Cee). That's quite cute.

Fanny

My nan was Florence, she got Florrie which is pretty, Loli not so much.

Flossie is much nicer.

I wouldn't shorten Florence at all, but Lolly isn't great, sorry.

Tangointhenight · 27/06/2012 22:19

What about Lorrie?

PoppyWearer · 27/06/2012 22:20

I had two very lovely Great-Aunt Florries.

If DS had been a DD, he would have been a Florence, nn Florrie.

Flo or flossie

Loli doesn't have much in common with the name Florence IMHO.
