What are your thoughts? What would you nickname (if anything)? Thanks

I like Lennie and Lea for nns but I guess Nelly would potentially work too

Grannyinnwaiting · 30/07/2024 23:02

gorgeous, elegant and unusual without being wierd or out there

It's not my cup of tea at all. Bit too much like Lenor.

Love the name. I have a Leon who's nearly 13 and he really likes his name. (Not the same name obvs but quite similar)

Lee is a very classy nn. Like Lee Miller, who was pretty damn cool!

It’s a pretty name. I know an older woman with this name and her nn is Lonnie.

Ooh, I rather like this. I'd probably call her Leonora in full, but wouldn't mind Leonie or Leona as a short form. I don't really like Nora.

Love it. Shorten it to Lee.

I absolutely love Leonora.

It would have been on my shortlist if OH hadn't objected (along with Eleanora and Theodora).

If I had a Leonora, I would shorten to Nori (Nor-ee like Nora but with an ee sound).
