What do you think of these nicknames using the first and middle names? These are some of my favorite types of nicknames to come up with! They always feel so sweet and clever. These are all names I like (or some of them at least tolerate) so that is why there are repeats! Some of these names I absolutely love and some I just like.

What do you think of these? [name_f]Do[/name_f] any of them not work at all? [name_f]Do[/name_f] you have any more suggestions based on these and similar names?
This is my absolute favourite thing - it’s clever and creative and fun and it gives you lots of name options, since they can always go by their first name or a more traditional nickname later on. Most of the names on my list follow that convention.
[name_f]My[/name_f] favourites on your list:
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] nn [name_f]Zelie[/name_f] - I’m not even a huge [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] fan but this is so cute.
[name_f]Aurora[/name_f] Lucy/Lorelai nn [name_f]Arlie[/name_f] - [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Arlie[/name_f] and [name_f]Aurora[/name_f]. It’s the perfect mix of playful and elegant.
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f] [name_f]Louise[/name_f] nn [name_f]Callie[/name_f] - So simple yet so fun.
[name_f]Amelie[/name_f] [name_f]Nadia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Ana[/name_f] - [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f] and [name_f]Ana[/name_f], you could also use [name_f]Ada[/name_f] for this one.
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f] [name_f]Laura[/name_f] nn [name_f]Flora[/name_f] - I love [name_f]Flora[/name_f] and this one is so cheerful and beautiful.
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Siena[/name_f] nn Elsie/Elsa - This is just amazing. Timeless yet modern, really flexible, I love the flow of [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Siena[/name_f] and how unexpected [name_f]Siena[/name_f] is in the middle. Absolutely gorgeous.

These are so fun and charming - and I think the nicknames above ‘add’ something to the combo!
The ones that don’t quite work for me:
[name_f]Nora[/name_f] [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] ‘Nellie’ (mostly because [name_f]Nora[/name_f] is a nickname for [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f], as is Nellie/Nella so 
)
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f] [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] ‘Zelda’ (not quite connecting to these sound wise)
Some similar ones:
[name_f]Saskia[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] ‘Saphie/Saffie’
[name_f]Lydia[/name_f] [name_f]Opal[/name_f] ‘Lio’
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] [name_f]Daphne[/name_f] ‘Edie’
[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] ‘Misty’

I love these creative combos and nicknames!
The nicknames that I think may be a big stretch are Francie for Felicity RoseAnne, Nora for Nadia Socorra, Zelda for Zoe Lydia, Ana for Amelia Nadia and Ada for Amelia Danielle.
My favorite combos are Margaret Nora, Aurora Lucy, Daphne Noelle, Beatrice Eleanora and Natalie Olivia.
