Nickname Miri?

Hello,

I love the idea of the nickname [name]Miri[/name] for a girl but cannot seem to find a long-name that I absolutely love where this name could be used. I also really love [name]Mara[/name] names, such as [name]Mara[/name], [name]Samara[/name], [name]Amara[/name], [name]Marya[/name].

The names I have considered so far for the nn [name]Miri[/name] are [name]Miriam[/name], [name]Mirren[/name], [name]Mireille[/name] (which I cannot use because it sounds too much like another baby name I am using), and Casmira (which is a bit of a stretch).

So, I was wondering if any of you could throw some ideas my way. :slight_smile:

The only additional one that I thought of was [name]Mirabel/name. Maybe [name]Minerva[/name] would work too, although it is a little bit of a stretch.

I cannot think of any additional names to add, but just wanted to say I really love [name]Miriam[/name]. I think it is a pretty and under-used name. Good luck!

What about:

[name]Mirella[/name]
[name]Amira[/name]
[name]Miranda[/name]
[name]Mira[/name]
Miró
[name]Palmira[/name]
[name]Samira[/name]

ETA: I guess [name]Miracle[/name] works too.

[name]Almira[/name]
[name]Elmira[/name]
[name]Miranda[/name]
[name]Mirabel[/name] (my favorite, it’s on my long list)
[name]Samira[/name]
[name]Miriam[/name]
[name]Mirren[/name]

I think [name]Miranda[/name] would be perfect!

There is a book called “[name]Princess[/name] Academy” in which the main character’s name is [name]Miri[/name]. I always thought it was precious and really like the idea of using that name on it’s own. Some might feel it’s a bit nick-namey, but I think it is beautiful on it’s own. Of your ideas, I like [name]Miriam[/name] and [name]Mirabel[/name] the best!
