One of my children we gave a shortened version of the name to...( crap english sorry)

I do sllllllightly regret it - just feels a little odd and bereft of something but frankly the long version of his name is comical and truly odd!

i agree with the not doing surnames for christian

isla for me and George

YOu know Hatrick...just been thinking about teh name Kitty...and it's growing on me...but also realsied that I used to call myself Kicki...which is pretty near Kitty, lol...which is probably why it's growing on me...
and well, I have made my opinion clear here over an over...if you liek the "shortenend"version and will use that anyway, why bother using the "correct" name...I hate it when people use a certain name, only to shorten it to another anyway....what a waste of time, lol...
obviously nicknames will often come along with time, but that is, to me, different then say calling my child Amelia officially only to shorten it to Millie...

Great lists.

I love, George, FinlAy, Louis, Frederick, Zachary. All of these are in my top 10! I really dislike Ellis.

I don't love any of the girls but Freya is my favourite.
