Nicknames for Rebecca that aren't Becky/Becca?

Hi,

DH and I really like Rebecca as a name but I really don't like Becky or Becca as a nickname. I just think that even if I always say Rebecca it's so long that others won't and Becky is an inevitability. Can anyone think of any (pretty) alternatives that we could use?

Thanks

I much prefer Becky/Beccy to Becca and Bex. I know a few Rebecca's and all but one are known as Rebecca now they are adults.

Everyone forgets the nickname Revy for Rebecca. That's an awesome nickname!

Reba, Bee/Bea, Ree. Rebecca is such a beautiful name!

Rebbie or Rivka

Becs
I don't think you should call your baby Rebecca though if you don't like the nicknames as I think they are inevitable!

Reba, Riva, Reva, Rivka, Rea.

my old flatemate was Rebecca and I called her Reb-reb - i think its cute and have never heard any other Rebeccas with that nickname.

I had a friend who shortened it to Reb. She disliked Becky and was never called that.

Rae is a lovely nickname for Rebecca. My name is Rebecca but I was always called becky until I found that name... No i prefer to go by that.
