Re: Which one.
in reply to a message by Bex
I'm sorry you think Rowena needs a nn.
Wilhelmina is very long and comes with a truckload of possible nns, none of which I like on a girl.
Edwina is beautiful, elegant, dignified and stylish. Eddie, not so much!
For me, it would be a toss-up between Rowena and Edwina: I'd want to use Edwina for family reasons, but I'd rather have it as a mn except it doesn't go well with Rowena!
Since two out of your three are fem versions, might you consider other fem versions as well? I'm thinking Antonia, Cecily, Harriet ...
