I was just thinking about the name [name]Linnet[/name], and how it would work perfectly for the nickname linny/[name]Linnie[/name] which is so cute for a little girl. But what do you think of [name]Linnet[/name]?

I love [name]Linny[/name]. I used it for a character once. [name]Linnet[/name] is quite pretty but the ‘t’ stands out in my accent a lot and makes it sound a little hard. I prefer [name]Linnea[/name] for the [name]Linny[/name] nickname.

[name]How[/name] is Lennae pronounced exactly??

[name]Linnea[/name] you mean? ‘[name]Lin[/name]-AY-a’ is how I say it. There should really be an accent over the ‘e’.

I agree. [name]Linnea[/name] nn [name]Linny[/name] would be cute.

I like [name]Linnea[/name] too, I also like the name Linley which could work with linny too!

[name]Linny[/name] is cute! I like [name]Leni[/name] (like [name]Lenny[/name]) more, personally, but [name]Linny[/name] is adorable. I like [name]Linnet[/name] nn [name]Linny[/name], but it probably wouldn’t be my first choice. I love the idea of something like [name]Lenora[/name]/[name]Helena[/name]/[name]Eleni[/name]/[name]Eleanor[/name]/[name]Gwendolen[/name]/[name]Magdalena[/name] nn [name]Linny[/name], too…

[name]Linny[/name]'s a cute nickname, it reminds me of a softer version of [name]Lizzie[/name] and similar to [name]Libby[/name]. I prefer it as a nickname for [name]Linnea[/name] (how renrose pronounces it).

[name]Linnet[/name] isn’t my style but it’s not a terrible name by any means.

Although I understand [name_f]Linnet[/name_f] has a different emphasis, it really just sounds like [name_f]Lynette[/name_f] to my ears.
I think [name_f]Linny[/name_f] is a cute name for any [name_f]Lin[/name_f]- name, [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] being a personal fav

I really like [name_f]Linnet[/name_f] nn [name_f]Linny[/name_f] although I am more used to [name_f]Lynette[/name_f] nn [name_f]Linnie[/name_f] as this is my mums name and nn however I do think [name_f]Linnet[/name_f] seems fresher.

Definitely love [name_f]Linnea[/name_f] pronounced [name_f]Lin[/name_f]-AY-a, it is one of our favourites and could be shortened to [name_f]Linny[/name_f]. x
