Re: Boy nicknames for a girl
Wouldn't it depend on her fn? Sam is so inevitable as a nn for Samantha, Ronnie for Veronica, Andie for Andrea etc.If it was me, I'd have named my daughter Georgina rather than any of the others, so no doubt she'd be Georgie. Not too bad a fate! And my least fave must be Sam. Or Frankie. Or Joey ...Bobbie - No. Very domestic-pet; I've known a Roberta called Bert and another called Robbie.
Billie - like my seriously male cousin? Nope.
Tommie - usually a nn for males and females with ln Thompson
Charlie - if she was Charlotte or Charlene or Charlize, Charlie would be a pleasant change; but she wouldn't be.
Sam - I loathe all Sam names, male and female.
Joey - no. Josie, yeah but then it stops being male.
Georgie - the probable winner.
Teddy - way too Bear for me.
Frankie - awful for either gender, though Fran is nice; once again, Fran is fem!
Ronnie - dislike Veronica
Randi - means sexually enthusiastic where I live, so no for either gender, though Miranda is a lovely nm
Andie - either a fem nn for Andrea or a unisex nn for ln Anderson. And I once knew an Ann who was known as Andie - better than Annie, she said.
