Names or nn's that end in "y"

Boy Names

DH has told me that he likes names (or names with possible nicknames) that end in “y” (or an “ee” sound). This leads us to our two top contenders at the moment - [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] (from [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]) and [name_u]Remy[/name_u] (on it’s own). We are loving [name_u]Remy[/name_u] over [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] (which had been our first pick before) but we wonder about our last name which is @lly (pronounced like Alley)… Is [name_u]Remy[/name_u] @lly too much? [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] @lly takes away the repetitive sound but still gives the option for a nn ending in “y”…sigh i don’t know…really love [name_u]Remy[/name_u].

Anyways! I’d love to hear suggestions of “full names” that have nickname possibilities ending in “y” or names on their own that already end in “y”. Thanks in advance as always!

I love [name_u]Remy[/name_u]!!! I think as long as the middle name doesn’t also end in y, you’re fine! If you love the name, go for it :slight_smile:

I think the pp’s have covered most the -y/-ie ending names I can think of, maybe (sorry if I missed some repeats):

[name_m]Thomas[/name_m] - [name_m]Tommy[/name_m]
[name_u]Sidney[/name_u]
[name_m]Montgomery[/name_m], [name_m]Montague[/name_m] - [name_m]Monty[/name_m]
[name_u]Darcy[/name_u]
[name_u]August[/name_u] - [name_m]Augie[/name_m]
[name_u]James[/name_u] - [name_u]Jamie[/name_u]
[name_m]Louis[/name_m]
[name_m]Henry[/name_m]
[name_m]Percival[/name_m], [name_m]Perseus[/name_m] - [name_u]Percy[/name_u]
[name_m]Franklin[/name_m], [name_u]Francis[/name_u], [name_m]Frank[/name_m] - [name_u]Frankie[/name_u]
[name_m]Reginald[/name_m] - [name_u]Reggie[/name_u]
[name_m]George[/name_m] - [name_u]Georgie[/name_u]

[name_m]Remington[/name_m]
[name_m]Remus[/name_m]
[name_m]Jeremy[/name_m]
[name_m]Jeremiah[/name_m]
