Re: Liam
Honestly, I think using Liam as a nickname for William is kind of stupid. I really hate it when people give their kids nicknames that are also names in their own right (i.e. using Nathan as a nickname for Nathaniel or Jonathan).

Nathan is a legitimate name in its own right though. It isn't a nickname for Nathaniel or Jonathan necessarily. There was a Nathan in the Bible. It just has some of the same elements.

That's exactly what Laslow means.However, Liam is not really a name in its own right, it's purely derived from William.
