…which ones would you use for your favourites?
I have too many favourites to nickname them all, but doing just the ones from my signature adjusts signature it would be sort of like this:
Emerence - [name_u]Wren[/name_u], [name_f]Em[/name_f], [name_f]Merry[/name_f]
[name_f]Eulalie[/name_f] - Lalie
Everild - [name_u]Ever[/name_u]
[name_f]Flora[/name_f] - [name_f]Lore[/name_f] maybe?
[name_f]Helena[/name_f] - [name_f]Nell[/name_f]
[name_f]Leonor[/name_f] - [name_f]Nora[/name_f] or [name_f]Lore[/name_f]
[name_f]Louisa[/name_f] - [name_u]Lou[/name_u] or [name_f]Lulu[/name_f]

[name_m]Emrys[/name_m] - Emre or Rys
[name_m]Ignatius[/name_m] - [name_m]Nate[/name_m] or [name_m]Iggy[/name_m]
[name_m]Isidor[/name_m] - [name_m]Sid[/name_m]? [name_u]Izzy[/name_u]? Same troubles as [name_m]Emmanuel[/name_m]… I would probably use the middle name to make a nickname, same with [name_m]Emmanuel[/name_m].
[name_m]Leonidas[/name_m] - [name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_u]Oberon[/name_u] - [name_m]Bear[/name_m] (or [name_m]Obi[/name_m] :P)

I have a lot of favourites (especially girls) so this’ll be a long list. Some of them I can’t think of any nns I like, and some I can’t decide between nns, and I’ve included GP names too. Nicknames are kind of GP for me, since I’d always/mostly use the amazing full names I chose (she says :P):

[name_f]Antonia[/name_f] — [name_f]Tonia[/name_f] ([name_u]Tosia[/name_u], Tośka, Antosia, Antośka — but I would definitely prefer [name_f]Tonia[/name_f], as any of those would make people think of [name_f]Antonina[/name_f])
[name_f]Celina[/name_f] — Ceśka (this is the hard one, [name_f]Celina[/name_f] was used in our family as a nn for my great-grandmother named [name_f]Cecylia[/name_f], so for me [name_f]Celina[/name_f] is kind of nicknamey itself)
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f] — Lizka
[name_f]Estera[/name_f] — Esterka (Eska?)
[name_f]Idalia[/name_f] — Idalka, [name_f]Ida[/name_f]
[name_f]Kalina[/name_f] — [name_f]Kala[/name_f], Kalinka
[name_f]Klara[/name_f] — (Klarka, Klarcia, Klarusia)
[name_f]Leonia[/name_f] — [name_m]Leo[/name_m]śka, Leosia
[name_f]Marcela[/name_f] — Marcelka (Marcysia — probably would make people think of [name_f]Marcelina[/name_f])
[name_f]Melania[/name_f] — [name_f]Mela[/name_f], [name_f]Melka[/name_f]
[name_f]Renata[/name_f] — Renulka, [name_f]Renia[/name_f] (Natka — would make people think of [name_f]Natalia[/name_f])
[name_m]Bartosz[/name_m] — [name_m]Bartek[/name_m]
Franciszek — Franek
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m] — Gabryś

[name_f]Rafa[/name_f]ł — [name_f]Rafa[/name_f]łek
I don’t like most of those nicknames. Many of them are suitable only for little children (as many other Polish nicknames), and I’m just not a fan of nicknames at all. I could accpet [name_f]Tonia[/name_f], Lizka, [name_f]Ida[/name_f] (though this is different name and I would choose [name_f]Idalia[/name_f], not [name_f]Ida[/name_f], for a reason) for girls, and the only one I kind of like is [name_m]Leo[/name_m]śka. [name_m]Bartek[/name_m], Franek and Julek would be probably acceptable not only for kids, though [name_m]Bartek[/name_m] is the most neutral of those. I suppose [name_f]Celina[/name_f], [name_f]Estera[/name_f] and [name_f]Klara[/name_f] would not tempt people to seek nicknames, so won’t [name_u]Micha[/name_u]ł and [name_f]Rafa[/name_f]ł. Maybe that’s time for me to look for short names which would be just used in their proper forms…
[name_m]Abraham[/name_m]- [name_m]Abe[/name_m], [name_m]Bram[/name_m]

[name_f]Magnolia[/name_f]- [name_f]Maggie[/name_f], [name_f]Nola[/name_f]
[name_f]Anika[/name_f]- [name_f]Nika[/name_f]
I didn’t use names on my list such as [name_m]George[/name_m], [name_f]Joy[/name_f] and [name_f]Fern[/name_f] as they are mostly standalone names.
[name_m]Erik[/name_m]: E
[name_m]Anders[/name_m]: A; I’m not a fan of [name_u]Andy[/name_u] at all.
[name_m]Alistair[/name_m]: A; I dislike [name_m]Al[/name_m] or [name_u]Ali[/name_u].
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m]: [name_m]Gabe[/name_m]
[name_m]Damian[/name_m]: [name_m]Ian[/name_m], even though it is too much of a formal name for me, so maybe Mian.
[name_m]Dimitri[/name_m]: Mitri
[name_f]Colette[/name_f]: [name_f]Coco[/name_f], [name_u]Coley[/name_u], [name_m]Cole[/name_m], or [name_f]Calli[/name_f] Co
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]: Lissy
[name_f]Ottilie[/name_f]: Otter
[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f]: [name_f]Viv[/name_f], [name_f]Vivi[/name_f], vien
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]: [name_f]Audi[/name_f]
[name_f]Natalie[/name_f]: [name_f]Talie[/name_f]
If I ended up using nicknames, it would probably be from the way the child (or a sibling) pronounced the name when they were learning it. A lot of kids have the cutest ways of trying to say their names.
