Linden or Lindy

Girl Names
1

I met a girl on another forum called Linden which happens to be one of my favourite names. She’s not sure if she still wants to go by her name or her nick name (Lindy). I told her that I think both of those names are gorgeous, but I wanted to see what other people thought.

She says she doesn’t mind her name too much, but when people see it written down, they always assume she’s a boy and she says a lot of people don’t like her name, but she’s always really liked Lindy because it’s very girly and pretty sounding.

If you’re a girl, would you rather be called Linden or Lindy?

I like both but I think I like [name_f]Lindy[/name_f] a bit more

I adore [name_u]Linden[/name_u] for its uniqueness and botanical association and I think [name_f]Lindy[/name_f] is just ok.

I used to go to school with a girl named [name_f]Lindy[/name_f]! It was her full name, but she liked it and it suited her. I like it too, but I would personally prefer it to be a NN if it were my name. I feel like it’s usually better to have a longer and/or more serious option at hand

I like [name_u]Linden[/name_u] a lot and [name_f]Lindy[/name_f] is beautiful! This is one of those rare occasions where I’d personally want [name_u]Linden[/name_u] as my name with [name_f]Lindy[/name_f] as a nn. (Usually I’m in favour of going for a nn as the official name, if that’s what you want to use on a daily basis. In this case keeping [name_u]Linden[/name_u] too would be having my cake and eating it!)
