HelpRe: Antonia doesn't have to be Toni (carry it on)
in reply to a message by Fiammetta
I have a Florrie in my class, early on she asked to go by Flo so I interchange them now. If I'm in a rush and writing unofficial documents, I'll write Flo on them and usually call her out on the register as Flo.
I don't think I've met a Tilly who has a longer name on her birth certificate. Most of the ones I see or hear about are Tilly (or more likely Tillie) in their own right.
In my maths class I have an Isabelle, Isabel and Isabella. To differentiate I kept Isabelle the same but shorten Isabel to Izzy (she doesn't mind) and leave Isabella alone although I do feel myself wanting to shorten it because it's such a mouthful IRL!
I think "dated" nicknames are much more common in England, whether they're on the birth certificate or used as a pet form.
