My grandfather’s name is Ladislaus and all his life, he has been known as Loddie. I am looking for a girl name that could use Loddie as a nickname to possibly honor him as I don’t think he will be around much longer.
I would also suggest [name]Charlotte[/name], in UK common nn’s for which are [name]Lottie[/name] or [name]Lotta[/name]. If you’re in the US (?) I’m guessing [name]Lottie[/name] would be pronounced law-dee as opposed to law-tee anyway so that would work.
oh i imediately thought of [name]Louisa[/name] or [name]Charlotte[/name].
ALso how about:
[name]Lolita[/name]
[name]Loretta[/name]
[name]Lorena[/name]
[name]Lowri[/name]
[name]Lourdes[/name]
I love the suggestions of [name]Charlotte[/name] and [name]Elodie[/name]! [name]Lydia[/name] also comes to mind because of its Liddy nickname, but Loddie would be a stretch.
You could also give your daughter L.D. initials, calling her “Loddie.” For example, [name]Lucy[/name] [name]Diana[/name] or [name]Lorelei[/name] [name]Delphine[/name] (which actually gives you Lo and De, for Loddie).
I think that [name]Louisa[/name] was a great suggestion, too, especially with a D middle name.
