Looking for an unusual girls name that can be shortened

[Tigger14]

I have an unusual girls name that can be shortened and would like to name our girl a name thay people can pronounce but on the uniqueside. Eg cassandra- cas, cassie, Jessica -jess, jessie but im struggling with what else.

I've always loved Araminta (Minty) after the character in Moondial.

Me too!
