Re: Could these names work as nicknames?
in reply to a message by Wish Fish
My counsin Montana is sometimes called Tater, from her normal nn Tana. I knew a Tate that went by Tater as a nn
Hock, I suppose, it's similar to Huck, which is a nn. It sounds more like a last name made nn though.
Berry - Barry is a name, Berry as a nn works fine because people will likely here "Barry" rather than think of berries
Cordi - my niece is a Cordelia who goes by Cordy, so yes, nn
Woof - Wolf, yes, Woof probably not. I can't see this in America at least, not with "woof" being an insult. Unless it's someone trying to reclaim an insult? It could be interested in a story.
