Prissea

[bugsybill]

How would you pronounce?

What do you think of it as name?

Priss-ay-ah. Doesn't sound nice to me. Too much like piss/prissy. Sorry.

I want to find a name that I can shorten to Pris. Dislike Priscilla.

Caprice?

Sorry, not good

Prisca?
Priya?
Primrose?

It's not a name. The only actual name that can be shortened to Pris is Priscilla.

You could make up something along the lines of
Prisina/Priseena
Prissie
Caprice works at a push.

Makes me think not just prissy, but prissier.

Sorry, but I think it's really not good. I wouldn't like to be called Prissea and wouldn't immediately recognise it as a name.

But then I don't like either Priscilla or Pris.

I think you need to be aware of what other children may differ with your name choice.

If you go with Pris then I think you are pretty much guaranteeing your DD goes through school hearing 'Pissy Prissy' on a daily basis. It's just too close and IMO would invite bullying.

I'd pronounce it prissy. Or prissier. Neither is great, considering urbandictionary's take on the definition.

Sounds like piss.

You shouldn't want to shorten to Priss. Priss has terrible connotations for a girls name.

prissy [ˈprɪsɪ]

fussy and prim, esp in a prudish way

It can be read as "prissier" which is not good, and would interfere, even if your chosen pronunciation was priss-ay-yah.

Might Primrose shorten to Pris?

Why on earth would you want to shorten a name to Pris? It is utterly dreadful with it being close to Piss and Prissy.

Felicity/Fliss is better.

What Soupy said.

No.

That's all.

I do know a Prisca, but she would never accept Priss as a nickname.
Pree-seh-a?

Huh?

No.

Really unpleasant, all of it, sorry.

Priss-ay-ah

No

I would expect the child to be a spoilt girly girl brat
