[name]Hi[/name] I’m [name]Ashlyn[/name] (yes I know my profile is lucy101, [name]Lucy[/name] is my cat). I’m really having second thoughts on my name. I’ve always loved it and how it is unique, but I feel left out with my friends. All of my friends have nicknames. [name]Katelyn[/name] is [name]Kate[/name] or [name]Katie[/name], [name]Olivia[/name] is [name]Liv[/name] or [name]Livvy[/name], [name]Mackenzie[/name] (guy) is [name]Mac[/name] and I could go on.
So my point is… [name]Do[/name] you Berries think you could think of a nickname for me? I’ve tried [name]Ash[/name], but it really just reminds me of a sad gray color and smoke, and my mother hates Ashy, as do I.
If you could think of a nickname my name [name]Ashlyn[/name], I’d be grateful!
[name]Ashlyn[/name] is a variation of [name]Aislinn[/name], which means ‘dream’, so that could be a nickname. Lynnie or [name]Lynn[/name] is also an option. Ashy sounds like a certain name for a donkey and rear. Nyl is ‘lyn’ backwords, so that could work, along with Nyli (rhymes with [name]Millie[/name]). [name]Gray[/name] could work in theory, but that’s more of a boys’ name to me. [name]Asha[/name] might as well.
I feel your pain. My friends all go by nicknames as well: [name]Evelyn[/name] “[name]Evie[/name]”; [name]Christine[/name] “[name]Chrissy[/name]”; [name]Olivia[/name] “[name]Livvy[/name]” and [name]Alexandria[/name] “[name]Allie[/name]”. My name is two syllables and the only nn is Rei/[name]Rae[/name].
I despise nicknames! [name]Ashlyn[/name] is a short 2 syllable name and doesn’t need a nickname. I would use that beautiful name and not worry about coming up with something else.
