You definitely can’t control whether or not he wants to go by Frank as he gets older, but you might be able to keep to Franklin until the end of primary school.

Ps I love Sebastian (do you like Seb?) and like Casper too.

We know a little Franklin and he gets called Frankie day to day but his parents refer to him as that x

The only Franklin I know is called Frank.
