Nickname for Amelie

[Blueeyedgirl19]

Our dd is probably going to be an Amelie. If we give her a nickname which do you prefer please...Ammie, Millie or Mimi? Thanks

Millie. Lovely name.

Love Amelie.
Millie would be my preferred nn

My DD shortens hers to Ame which I hate. We don't shorten it as a rule although she's sometimes Moo.
Millie is lovely but I like Amelie so much, I don't see it needs a nickname.

None of those shortenings are as nice as Amelie. I think when a name is shortened to something like Millie, it then becomes their name and you lose Amelie.
If I was shortening I would occasionally say Ams or Ammy but not often I don't think.

Why does it need a NN

Millie is lovely

Mimi

Millie

I prefer Millie

Amelie is nice as it is and much better than the nicknames

Why does it need a NN

Exactly. Why does every name need a nickname. What's the point of the name then? Just go straight to the default nn

Not mimi

Ammie probably because a lot of Millies around.

Name her Amelie and then when she’s born you will see what suits her as a nickname.
I thought nicknames were meant to be an affectionate term not really thought of in advance...

Totally wait until she arrives. NNs tend to evolve naturally, depending on what suits.

Thanks all. We will wait until she arrives and then see.

Why wouldn't you just call her Amelie? If that's the name you like then use it.

Ami or Mimi.

Far too many Millies.

Wait and see. You might end up with a nickname that's nothing to do with her real name. Unless you meant diminutive, not nickname.

Amy? Ellie? Love Millie, but agree doesn't need a nn
