I absolutely love
Opal, but for a long time I didn't think it was useable, because what would you use for short? Opie? That's awful. But I love how kooky and grandly antique
Opal is, and I've decided I'd use "
Pal" or "Pally" as a nickname for it. That suits the eccentric nature of
Opal.
My least favourite is
Grace. At first I was going to say
Lyra, but I realized that honestly, I would probably find
Lyra on a real person to be pretty ok. But
Grace is just white noise to me.
