Now, imagine a Charlotte called Chuck.
That's how I get around my dislike for Charlie.
The only think worse would be a Charlotte nn Chuckie. Eeep!

My GP nick for Charlotte is Chali (SHAH-lee). To me, dropping the R seems no more phoney-cutesy than changing the SH sound to CH and giving up the gender. But, novel invented nicknames always look so affected on paper. Alas. Such a name would have to be spontaneously fitted to a real person.
