What could Artie be short for?

[Ipanema01]

The name Artie is growing on me but I don’t like how popular Arthur is. What else could it be a shortening of?

I can only think of Arthur but I like Artie as a stand-alone name.

Artimus?

Artemis
Nn for Art

I know an Arthur or two or three - mid to late primary age.

Arthur

Clearly Nursie can spell better than me!!

Artimus?

Arturo

Archibald

Bartholomew. Although you’d definitely risk him being called Bart or Bartie instead.

@gogogadgetgin cross post 🙈🙈 that’s the beauty of names I guess you can spe them however you like 😉

Arthur

Artemis is awesome, but it's a girl's name!

There is an Irish name Art (I think).

Artemus

Artemis

I have an Artie, short for Arthur. I didn't want to use Arthur because of the popularity either. But he is Artie. No other suggestions I'm afraid just wanted to say good name choice! 😁

Arthur (if you have a boy)

Artemis (if you have a girl)

I feel like you could pull off Archer at a pinch.

Carter, Barton, Stuart, Martin?

Why are people pre choosing potential nicknames?!

Give your child a proper name, whether it's Arthur, Artemis or Artan. Then let nicknames evolve naturally.

Artie (Fartie) sounds ridiculous and childish imo.

Tammy people ‘pre choose’ nicknames so parents can guide them. For example if you have an Isabelle but want her to be known as Belle rather than Issie it’s important to get the nickname in early so others follow suit. As pretty much all names are shortened it’s an important thing to think about.

Really? I know lots of people whose names aren't shortened .

Yep. In school, by friends. People tend to shorten names in a friendly manner. I would say it’s quite uncommon for a Benjamin or an Elizabeth or a Daniel to never go by Ben, Liz or Dan ever in their lives.

My grandads artie short for Arthur!

Artie Farty. Archer is awful and will be Archie.
