HelpInitial names
A fb post today got me to thinking, so now I have two questions:
1. What "initial names" have you encountered irl?
2. What "initial names" would you use/do you like?
1.I've known girls A.J. and two C.J. s
Boys, I've known C.V., C.J., three J.J. s, P.J., RJ (not initials, his actual name), D.L., K.C., J.B., and H.B.
In media, I've seen D.J.,T.J., P.J., and E.J.
2. I don't know that I'd actually use any. In my mind, the "J" ending is cutesy, so I wouldn't use any of those. When I go through random combinations, I really can't find any I like with any letters, though. If I were to use an "initial name," it would definitely come about from a combo I already liked, and not planning a combo to fit the initials (not because I see anything wrong with this, but because it wouldn't be planned to use the initials as a name). At least two of the names I listed above didn't start going by initials until age 12 or so (it wasn't planned), at least one was intentionally planned (the combo was given with the intent to call the child by the initials). At least one goes by the initials because he's a "third"
