I know a five-year-old girl whose name is [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] and she doesn’t go by a nickname (but I have heard her being called [name_u]Tate[/name_u] before). If you love the name, lack of nicknames doesn’t matter. After all, it’s [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] you love, not its nicknames that it may or may not have.
I voted [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u], but [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] would be a great option as well. I like [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] because it flows nicely and they both have that modern-unisex-stylish name feel. But [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] would be good as well, because [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] is a unisex name (although it definitely leans female) and [name_f]Elise[/name_f] is very feminine, so that would be a really nice balance.
I struggled to decide between [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f], but ultimately picked the latter so her name isn’t completely unisex.
I voted for [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]. [name_f]Elise[/name_f]'s femininity balances [name_u]Tatum[/name_u]'s androgyny quite nicely.
I think [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] is short enough that she probably won’t be called by a nickname. Perhaps occasionally by a close friend when she’s older but if you always introduce her and refer to her by [name_u]Tatum[/name_u], I think people would honour that. I like [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] because it indicates she is a female as [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] is a unisex name.
I voted [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] with [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] in a close second. I just liked the flow better. I also agree on not making the name completely unisex because I have a sister named [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_u]Reed[/name_u] who dislikes her name for this reason. (Of course, my sister is also a stereotypical girly-girl)
[name_u]Tatum[/name_u] is all boy to me (specifically [name_u]Channing[/name_u] [name_u]Tatum[/name_u]) and [name_f]Elise[/name_f] is so pretty, so I vote [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]. It’ll give her options.
As for nicknames: [name_m]Tam[/name_m] would be cute! Better for you to choose her nickname then have others choose it for you!
I really like both [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f]. [name_m]Even[/name_m] though both [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] and [name_u]Everly[/name_u] are unisex I see [name_u]Everly[/name_u] more feminine than masculine. But [name_u]Tatum[/name_u] [name_f]Elise[/name_f] is really pretty!
