Rebecca

[Herefornameideas]

Hi

DH and I both like name Rebecca but I am wondering, is it very common for all Rebecca's to be called Becky or Becca? I'm not a fan of the latter two and not sure I'd call the baby Rebecca if the likelihood is the name will be shortened.

Thank you so much everyone 💞💞

Our baby girl was born in June 23, we've called her Rebecca (Becca for short). Everyone we have told her name has responded with lovely things to say and how refreshing it is to hear a traditional name 🥰

One of my DDs had a Rebecca in her class and she’s only ever known as Rebecca, it’s a beautiful name.

I knew a Rebecca who shortened to Reb - suited her well.

It'll definitely be shortened. I know loads of Rebeccas... the one I know who tries to use her formal name at work, friends still call her Becks.

Have NCd.

First of all, congrats OP. Lovely news.

Secondly, I'm another Rebecca who gets Rachel an awful lot. Emails at work sent to my actual name, starting, Hi Rachel... 😵‍💫🤣

Also have had Bec, Bex, Becca, Becky basically my whole life. Don't mind it really.

Congratulations on your Rebecca 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you everyone ❤️
And congrats @positivethoughts1 !

Rebecca is such a beautiful name!

It's feminine but strong, and elegant but warm.

Congrtaulations on your Baby Rebecca💕

Oh I’m so happy you’ve chosen this gorgeous name with such a beautiful meaning. My Rebecca (Boo) is now 13. Yours will be too in a flash! 🥹Congratulations OP. Blessings to your little one. ❤️💐

What beautiful meaning does Rebecca have?

Faithful wife..or knotted cord! 🤔

Congratulations op. I knew a Rebecca professionally aged in her early fifties, she always goes by Rebecca in the work sense but I have heard her calling herself Bec when she would give herself pep talks.

Another Rebecca here who gets called Rachel.

Personally though I love my name. I did have it shortened when I was younger and to this family still call me Bec or Becca. If anyone else tries to shorten it though I correct them once and then refuse to answer.
