I chose [name_f]Cara[/name_f]. I don’t understand how some of those nicknames come from [name_f]Caroline[/name_f].

My cousin is [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] nn [name_f]Calli[/name_f] and it fits her - although I love just simple “[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]”. It’s such a beautiful name.

I’ve always heard the nickname “Care” for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]. I like that best!

I love the nickname Care-bear for a baby/child [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], but I’d like something that ages a bit better as well!

Voted for [name_f]Cara[/name_f], but really wanted this to be a multiple choice poll! I also love [name_u]Caro[/name_u] and [name_f]Coco[/name_f], and I’m growing to love [name_m]Arrow[/name_m].
There’s also [name_f]Clio[/name_f] ^^

All that said though, I’m really not into [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], I like all the nicknames more. [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is a little too ordinary for me.
(her most redeeming trait however, is that she has a beautiful song with her name in it, [name_u]Douglas[/name_u] Dare’s “[name_f]Caroline[/name_f]”. It’s on Spotify I think, you should check it out!)

Haha, sorry to disappoint @dearest! Thanks, love the suggestion of [name_f]Clio[/name_f] too.

I have never particularly liked [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] either, but I am thinking I may have overlooked her especially with all of the beautiful nickname options. [name_m]Will[/name_m] definitely check the song out on Spotify, thanks for the heads up. :slight_smile:

I personally would not use a nickname. If I did, it would be [name_f]Callie[/name_f] (cal-ee).

[name_f]Caroline[/name_f] is beautiful.

I have a soft spot for [name_f]Carrie[/name_f], though I do like [name_u]Caro[/name_u] a lot as well.

[name_u]Caro[/name_u] is my all-time fave. It reminds me of Lady [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] Lamb, and even with the questionable backstory I still enjoy the connection.

I think [name_m]Arrow[/name_m] makes a cool, unexpected nn for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], but I see it more on a tomboyish girl who prefers it to her feminine formal name. My favorite option is [name_f]Coco[/name_f]:slight_smile:

Your [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] Wildflower is stunning, btw!

I voted for [name_f]Callie[/name_f] because I love that as a name anyway and think it makes a lovely sweet nickname for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]. On the other options…
[name_m]Arrow[/name_m] - Could work as the full sound is present in [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], never heard it as a nickname for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] before only as a boys name.
[name_f]Caddie[/name_f] - No, just makes me think of a golf caddie
[name_f]Cara[/name_f] - [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t love the name myself but of course it works well for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_u]Caro[/name_u] - Kind of like this but there is a coffee substitute called [name_u]Caro[/name_u] so also makes me think of that
[name_f]Carrie[/name_f] - Prefer to [name_f]Cara[/name_f] and it works well
Caz - Hate this
[name_f]Cece[/name_f] - love the nickname but not the best for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] because of the soft c/hard c sounds. Unless you pick a C middle name
[name_f]Coco[/name_f] - Kind of like this and it does work quite well for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]

Other suggestion…[name_f]Carys[/name_f]. Although I think I’m only saying that because I prefer [name_f]Carys[/name_f] to [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]!
Anyway, [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] with nn [name_f]Callie[/name_f] is lovely and would be lovely with the other name in your signature [name_f]Elspeth[/name_f]

I love [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] best in full - it’s so pretty! Sorry lol, I know that doesn’t help with your actual question.

I like [name_f]Cara[/name_f] best, but I had a good friend named [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] who went by [name_u]Caro[/name_u], which I always thought was really cool, too. I once heard a [name_u]Berry[/name_u] post about [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] nn [name_f]Calla[/name_f] (stemming from [name_f]Callie[/name_f], I suppose!), and I thought that was pretty cute, too. I like [name_f]Calla[/name_f] a lot.
