So update on the name situation. [name_f]My[/name_f] husband doesn’t hate [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] but he thinks it is too weird and hard to pronounce. I agree I catch myself mispronouncing it from time to time. But I like it cause I can use the nickname [name_m]Iggy[/name_m]. But I just came up with another nickname I love. Which is [name_f]Annie[/name_f]. But I don’t wanna use just that. I’m not a fan of most names starting with A. I’m also second-guessing [name_u]Teagan[/name_u]. I’m just about ready to pull a top 10 name out of the hate and stick with it.

I don’t really see how [name_m]Iggy[/name_m] comes from [name_f]Calliope[/name_f], but maybe it could be used for [name_u]Teagan[/name_u] (or Tiggy).

[name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] could also be [name_m]Iggy[/name_m]! [name_u]Or[/name_u] [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] maybe. I love [name_u]Tegan[/name_u] too.
[name_f]My[/name_f] immediate answer to that question was [name_f]Annalise[/name_f]? Annualised is gorgeous I love that name! That could work as a name with the nickname [name_f]Annie[/name_f].
For the nickname [name_m]Iggy[/name_m] maybe [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] or [name_f]Imogen[/name_f]?
You could combine the two and have [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] [name_f]Annalise[/name_f] or [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] [name_f]Annalise[/name_f]!
Maybe [name_f]Angelina[/name_f] or [name_f]Angelica[/name_f] could get you [name_f]Annie[/name_f] or [name_m]Iggy[/name_m]? Plus [name_u]Angie[/name_u]!
Here’s a great list of full names for Annie: Ann Alternatives: Updating a Classic | Nameberry
I like Indigo as a full name for Iggy.
Sandra Or Alexandra could maybe be Annie? I just thought of that. What about Abigail, Brigette, Corrigan, or Sigourney or the initials I.G. to get Iggy? Maybe you might like Peggy as a nn from Margaret.
I think [name_f]Callie[/name_f] is a really sweet nickname for [name_f]Calliope[/name_f]!
I love [name_f]Annie[/name_f] as well! I think I would go with [name_f]Anna[/name_f] personally to get [name_f]Annie[/name_f].
[name_f]Annabel[/name_f] is also a fun option. [name_f]Annabel[/name_f] and [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] compliment each other well!
Here are some more thoughts:
Penelope/Penny
[name_u]Harper[/name_u]
[name_f]Ellie[/name_f]
Ceci
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]
[name_f]Amelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Maya[/name_f]
Charlotte/Charlie/Char/Lottie
-I also like the [name_f]Annalise[/name_f] suggestion!
[name_f]My[/name_f] first thoughts are Giana/Giovanna/Georgiana… which could be both [name_m]Iggy[/name_m] and [name_f]Annie[/name_f], though a stretch.
[name_m]Iggy[/name_m]:
[name_f]Gisela[/name_f]
Inggrid
[name_f]Annie[/name_f]:
[name_f]Annika[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
Julianna/Julianne
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]
[name_f]Vivianna[/name_f]
I agree with so many good ideas already suggested:
I love both [name_f]Ingrid[/name_f] and [name_f]Imogen[/name_f] for [name_m]Iggy[/name_m]. I also think [name_m]Iggy[/name_m] works well as a nn for [name_u]Teagan[/name_u]. And I adore the beautiful [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] (same style as [name_u]Teagan[/name_u] for me) with nn [name_f]Annie[/name_f].
Others I like with nn [name_f]Annie[/name_f]:
[name_f]Anwen[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Johanna[/name_f]
[name_f]Susannah[/name_f]
[name_f]Hannah[/name_f]
or maybe [name_f]Bethan[/name_f]
Considering [name_u]Teagan[/name_u] and [name_f]Calliope[/name_f], do you like Tamsin/Tamzin/Tamsyn, [name_f]Tressa[/name_f], [name_f]Bethan[/name_f], Morwen, [name_f]Morven[/name_f], [name_f]Kerensa[/name_f], [name_f]Penelope[/name_f], [name_f]Xanthe[/name_f], [name_f]Evanthe[/name_f], [name_f]Persephone[/name_f]?
