Teddie or Mattie?

[fradelly]

Theodora or Matilda? Definitely the NNs Teddie and Mattie until old enough to decide for herself.

Our 3rd choice was Winter (Winnie) but she isn't going to be born in Winter.

I have a Theodora, we call her Thea 90% of the time, but a couple of her tiny friends call her Dora, which I actually really like. I am ambivalent about Teddy, but I'm sure at some point she'll go through a phase of it at school or something.

Both full names are lovely , the nn you've chosen are not , so on that basis you should go for Winter . I will point out that Teddy / Teddie is very popular for small , black fluffy dogs in our part of the world (SE) . Thea and Dora are both very nice and Tilda /Tilly are better than Mattie .

I really like Matilda nn tilly or mattie. Ds1's name is Edward nn Teddy so I can't see a girl with that name although obviously I like it!
