[name_m]Hi[/name_m] all! :slight_smile:

[name_m]Just[/name_m] going through some favourite names and could do with some Nameberry input!

In short:

  1. Any ideas for nicknames for the name [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]? (I know that [name_f]Nigella[/name_f] [name_m]Lawson[/name_m] used [name_f]Mimi[/name_f] for her daughter who is a [name_f]Cosima[/name_f].)

  2. Any alternatives to [name_u]Matty[/name_u]/[name_f]Maddie[/name_f]/[name_f]Tilly[/name_f] for [name_f]Matilda[/name_f]?

Thanks in advance for any ideas you may have!

:smiley:

I really like Cosi for Cosima, and Coco is a great suggestion too! You could do Cici/Sisi (from the initial C or "si). Mima (mee-ma) would be cute. Or just Coz/Cos (pronounced like cause, as in "without cause).

Milly is my favourite less-obvious nickname for Matilda, and you could also get Ada (it has all the letters, in the right order) or Allie/Ally/Ali (it has the letters A, L and I, so).

Though really, I’m not sure I’d personally use a nickname for either since I love the full names more than any of the nns!

For [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], I like Cosy or [name_f]Sima[/name_f]. [name_f]Tilda[/name_f] is my favourite [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] nickname/alternative.

Cosi is a cute nickname for [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]. [name_u]Mattie[/name_u], [name_f]Tilly[/name_f], and [name_f]Tilda[/name_f] seem like the obvious nicknames for [name_f]Matilda[/name_f].

Thanks for the suggestions, all! I do like [name_f]Coco[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], and [name_f]Tilda[/name_f] is really very sweet.
I have to say, I agree that the full names are beautiful just the way they are, but it´s always good to have options :smiley:

I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Coco[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Cosima[/name_f]! I also think Cosey/Cozy is cute. The only other nicknames I can think of for [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] are [name_f]Millie[/name_f] or [name_f]Tilda[/name_f].

  1. If I had a [name_f]Cosima[/name_f], she’d 100% be either [name_f]Sisi[/name_f] or Cozy. I think both are adorable! [name_f]Coco[/name_f] is also cute.

  2. I’m a massive fan of [name_f]Tilly[/name_f] personally, so much so that I’d take [name_f]Tilly[/name_f] and leave [name_f]Matilda[/name_f], but if not [name_u]Mattie[/name_u]/[name_f]Maddie[/name_f] or [name_f]Tilly[/name_f], then maybe [name_f]Millie[/name_f] or [name_f]Tilda[/name_f]? I suppose if you could use [name_f]Maddie[/name_f] you could also use [name_f]Addie[/name_f], or even [name_f]Milla[/name_f]/[name_f]Mila[/name_f]…

[name_f]Mimi[/name_f] is cute and [name_f]Tilda[/name_f] or [name_f]Tilde[/name_f] is lovely.

12

[name_f]Matilda[/name_f]–[name_f]Attie[/name_f], [name_f]Ida[/name_f], [name_f]Ilda[/name_f], [name_f]Tilda[/name_f], [name_f]Mallie[/name_f]
[name_f]Cosima[/name_f]–Cosi, [name_f]Ima[/name_f], [name_f]Sima[/name_f], CeeCee,

13

Cosima - Cam/Cami, Simmy/Zimmy, Zimm, Immy, Mimi
This could be a good one to use the MN in conjunction with the FN when considering a nickname – for example Cosima Jane = CJ, Cosima Rihanna = Cara or Cora, Cosima Belle = Cole, Cosima Mary = Carrie or Cory, etc.

Matilda – Mal, Maia/Maya, Tally, Talia, Tia, “M” or “M-ie” (pronounced/spelled like Em and/or Emmy :)), Tila (pronounced like Tee-lah)

I would use [name_m]Cos[/name_m] or [name_f]Tillie[/name_f].
