Girls names with cute nn

I’m due in 5 weeks and the boy’s name we have picked is Miles. However, if the baby is a girl she will be nameless! I am drawn to names that end in ia and like the idea of names that can be shortened for childhood.

Two examples that I like are Celia (Cece) and India (Indie) but neither seem right. Any other suggestions would be very welcome.

I've got an awesome nickname that's nothing to do with my actual name. Can't you just pick a great name and wait and see what comes naturally

Cece is the best. So posh.

WhatDoHedgehogsSay · 15/12/2020 14:47

I love India. Please not another Amelia or Olivia, the world is full of them!

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 15/12/2020 20:52

I really love the name India too, but I know some people have issues with it. Celia is gorgeous (and Shakespearean to boot!), although I must admit I think of Cece as more a nn for Cecilia.

If you like - ia names with cute nn's you might like: Annie/Anya/Nina (for Antonia ), May (for Maria or Malia), Kitty (for Katia or Claudia), Effie (for Ophelia), Tavi (for Octavia), Tali (for Thalia), Rae (for Aurelia)
