I was wondering if [name]Posey[/name] (or [name]Posie[/name]) was a valid nickname for [name]Parker[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]?
It’s a bit too much of a stretch for me. [name]Parker[/name] is so tomboyish, chic, and urban, while [name]Posey[/name] is so flowery and cutesy. I can see where you’re getting the P and the O for [name]Posey[/name], but it’s just too different, both letter-wise and style-wise, for me to see the connection. I think both names are sweet, and my suggestion for a longer name for [name]Posey[/name] is [name]Mariposa[/name], the Spanish word for “butterfly.”
P.S. I just looked up [name]Parker[/name] in the database. I don’t follow pop culture, but this may be where you’re getting [name]Posey[/name] from. If it’s not, you should at least be aware of it: “[name]Indie[/name] actress [name]Parker[/name] [name]Posey[/name] put a female imprint on this sophisticated surname that’s still much more common for boys but rising for both sexes.”
I don’t think nicknames have to be connected to the given name, so [name]Posey[/name] is fine.
Nicknames can be anything you want them to be.
Sort of. But presumably, posters who ask this question are wanting to know if there’s a sufficient connection between the real name and the proposed nickname for it to seem natural. Because if there is no connection to the ‘real’ name, in what sense is it a nickname ‘for’ the original name? As opposed to just being a different name altogether?
(Asking as a general question, not in relation to [name]Parker[/name]/[name]Posey[/name] specifically.)
I can see where you’re coming from with the [name]PO[/name] initials, I guess it would depend on whether people knew her middle name so would make the connection. If you’ve got an S- surname then it makes it work even more.
I know of nicknames that are more of a stretch than [name]Posey[/name] from [name]Parker[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]. If you want something feminine sounding, [name]Keri[/name] could also work as a nickname.
I think it works. It has the same first initial. And for some reason, to me, nicknames that have the middle name’s initial in it to just seem right…
[name]Parker[/name] [name]Olivia[/name]…[name]POsey[/name].
I think its really cute, too!
I guess my answer is yes, it works, but no it’s not intuitive.
[name]Po[/name] would make sense in terms of strictly initials, [name]Polly[/name] even, [name]Posey[/name] I’d easily accept as a parent’s petname for [name]Parker[/name] [name]Olivia[/name], but it is a bit of a stretch if you want it to connect directly to the name.
I think works, actually. It’s easy to tell where you’re getting it from.
I like [name]Parker[/name] on a girl and [name]Posey[/name] both, but [name]Parker[/name] nicknamed [name]Posey[/name] made me think of the actress [name]Parker[/name] [name]Posey[/name] right away. [name]Po[/name] or [name]Poe[/name] would be very cute.
I can see that it is kind of a stretch for that nickname but I really like [name]Posey[/name] as a nickname but [name]Primrose[/name] doesn’t suit my style.
[name]Do[/name] you guys have any suggestions? I do like [name]Parker[/name] for a girl alot. Thanks for posting everyone
