Surname along the lines of 'Lilly' ie. feminine, ends in y, flowery. Needs a 'strong' forename to go with it.

Looking for something a similar format to DD1s name- longer formal full name, with more 'cutesy' nn.

I like Charlotte (nn Lottie) and Isabel (nn Izzy) but they're a bit too popular for me.

Current ideas are;
Dorothea or Dorothy nn Dolly/Dottie/Dot
Persephone nn Effie/Sephy
Penelope nn Penny

Would love to hear any ideas which you think might fit, thanks :)

Find Persephone a bit fussy but love Effie (it’s my daughter’s nameGrin) a diminutive for Evelyn. Josephine could also be shortened to Effie. Also really like Penelope nn Nell/Nellie.
