Decided on [name_m]Frederick[/name_m] [name_u]William[/name_u] for our 2nd son knowing we’ll call him [name_u]Freddie[/name_u]. Was just wondering what nicknames could be given as he gets older?
I think if you plan on calling him Freddie that nickname would potentially be used in adulthood as well. I know plenty of adult Daniels/Dannys, Charles/Charlies, James/Jimmys, etc. Otherwise, I assume it would be shortened even more to Fred. He could also use Rick, Derrick, Eric, if he wanted, along with plenty of middle name opportunities.
[name_m]Fritz[/name_m]!! I think [name_m]Fritz[/name_m] for a baby is sooo cute too.
