Is Chez a real name

[peaceinourtime]

Morning all, I heard of the name Chez for the first name yesterday, I had never heard of it before. Is it a real name or is it a shorting of a name?
Please advise 😊

Can be short for Cheryl.

Pronounced as spelt, or “Shay”? I would guess it’s short for something, may even be for Francesca or similar.

I knew a Chez, it was short for Francesca.

Is the French word for with.

Nope. That’s avec.

Chez is ‚at the home/place of‘ like chez Marie.

Chez is imagine is short for something else. In Point of fact though no names are ‚real‘ until people use it and in doing so it becomes real.

It really isn’t!

Do you mean Shay?

‘Che’ as in Che Guevara

Chez was a nickname for Cheryl when I was at school. Like Shaz for Sharon.

Yes, our Chez at work, pronounced how it's written, is a Cheryl.

Or short for Chesney? Or is that maybe the one and only going around?

We had a Chez at school, pronounced like that not the French way and short for Francesca. I personally don’t find it the prettiest name about or the nicest shortening of Francesca or any other name, but that’s personal taste. It doesn’t help that the person in question wasn’t super nice to me!

Che

Depends how it’s pronounced really. I know a ‘Chez’ but that’s short for Chesney because he used to look like someone out of emmerdale or coronation street apparently and it’s just stuck 🤣

I know a Chez which is short for Cherokee.

I knew a Chez. She was a border collie. Apparently it was short for 'bitchez'. (The owner was a retired Rev Dr medical missionary not a rapper)

I know a Chez. It's short for Chaise-Lounge.

I knew a Chez. It was short for Chezalina, she was Maltese

What's a real name?

Anything seems to go now

Poor kid

I'm not sure her Mexican family would agree.

What has their being Mexican got to do with it? ‘Cherokee’ is not a Mexican name.

That really made me laugh!
