Nine Inch Nails?

It's OK but I would assume it was short for something. Would you consider similar names such as Nina?

I'm afraid Ninny is what sprung to my mind as well. Sad as it's a nice simple unusual name otherwise.

I don't think anyone says Ninny anymore lol! Well perhaps a certain generation, but that would should be a generation who ought know better, so don't let that put you off ( you may get more 'ninny' comments as I believe it is entirely possible that those who would use the juvenile and dated jibe do collect on mumsnet from the comments I have seen on this board)
