[name_u]Liam[/name_u]
[name_u]Wim[/name_u]

Thank you!

My favorite nickname for [name_m]William[/name_m] is [name_u]Liam[/name_u]. I also like [name_m]Will[/name_m] and [name_m]Wills[/name_m], but I’ve never heard of [name_u]Wim[/name_u].

I like [name_m]Will[/name_m], it’s nice and the most obvious nn

4

I love simple, solid [name_m]Will[/name_m]. If it’s good enough for [name_m]Shakespeare[/name_m]… :wink:

5

I love the classic [name_m]Will[/name_m] and the modern [name_u]Liam[/name_u]! [name_m]Wills[/name_m] would be cool :sunglasses:

[name_m]Will[/name_m] is my favorite! (Probably partially due to my Pirates of the Caribbean obsession!)

I like [name_m]Will[/name_m]!

11

Will for a teen/adult, [name_u]Billy[/name_u] for a child.

Liam, followed closely by [name_m]Will[/name_m].

I like them all, including the most obvious, [name_m]Will[/name_m] - there’s just something so simple and cool about it. [name_u]Wim[/name_u] is awesome too though and the most unexpected. I really like the sound of it. I also love [name_u]Billy[/name_u] - I think it’s such a sweet nickname, fun and rough and tumble but also able to grow with the child. [name_u]Liam[/name_u] is probably my least favourite although I don’t at all dislike it. It’s just so popular, both in its own right and as a nickname.

14

Will is definitely great, but I am also fond of one that no one has yet mentioned: [name_u]Willie[/name_u]. I think it is actually really adorable, though I suppose I’m in the minority.

15

I like [name_m]Will[/name_m]
All the [name_m]Williams[/name_m] I know in teal life go by [name_m]Bill[/name_m] or [name_u]Billie[/name_u] (when they were younger).

16

Will and [name_u]Liam[/name_u] are probably my favorites. I’ve never been fond of [name_m]Bill[/name_m] or [name_u]Billy[/name_u] for some reason.

17

Will is my favorite by far, but if you’re looking for new options, there’s also [name_m]Wilkie[/name_m].

18

I love [name_m]Will[/name_m], I think it’s so handsome.

Billy! But [name_m]Wills[/name_m] and [name_m]Will[/name_m] are nice too

Liam, [name_u]Wim[/name_u], & [name_u]Pim[/name_u] are my favorites! I like [name_m]Will[/name_m] too, it’s just much more common and overused, imo.
