I think it is nice - If I had one could imagine ( nn) Hazelnut as a baby and then probably the odd Nutty. But I rather like on Gogglebox the way Giles calls his wife Nutty - I think it is rather a sweet nickname.

I don't really like the name. It's incredibly bland

I like this name and off the top of my head I can think of three people of different ages named Hazel, one is in her 50s, the second is in her thirties and the third is only 5 so I don't think it ages like some names.

It's a lovely name. I know a few Hazels and they're all lovely people. Plus Hazel (although a male) is the name of one of the heroic rabbits in Watership Down.

Having said that though, my dad did go to school with a girl named Hazel Nutt, though that was on the poor thing's parents and not her.

I love it actually, it's really pretty and lovely. I really don't think there is a need for like a fulltime nickname - as in a nickname where the full name is never used. But if you really want a nickname, then the one I know goes by Hayley or Nutella every now and then!

  1. Timeless, earthy name suggestive of wisdom.
  2. 'Haze' 'Hazey' or, jokingly 'Filbert'.
