Nn Edie

I love the name Edie and for a long time thought we would probably use it as a full name but I recently wondered whether we should use another 3 syllable name. Today I met a little girl called Adeline (Ad-e-line not Ad-e-leen) and fell in love with the name.

Do you think Edie could work as a Mn for Adeline?

I think [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] [name_f]Edie[/name_f] is very sweet :heartpulse:

[name_f]Adeline[/name_f] ā€œEdieā€ works in my opinion, although a slight stretch!

[name_f]Elodie[/name_f] ā€œEdieā€ is another option you may like!

It could work but it’s not quite intuitive to me -unless you mean pronouncing [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] as ad-ee-line as opposed to ad-uh-line which is how I’ve usually heard it pronounced? That pronunciation nn [name_f]Edie[/name_f] might work

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.

I don’t know…I love [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]! But prefer Ad-uh-line. And that’s the more common pronunciation. [name_m]Even[/name_m] w/ā€˜Ad-uh-leen’ it feels like a bit of a stretch. What about [name_f]Eudora[/name_f] nn [name_f]Edie[/name_f]?

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps. :slight_smile:

Thanks Everyone, perhaps I’m best to just stick with one or the other! I’m really not keen on [name_f]Addie[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Adeline[/name_f], so strange as it’s such a small difference to [name_f]Edie[/name_f] but I feel completely differently about it!

Absolutely [name_f]Edie[/name_f] works for [name_f]Adeline[/name_f]! I actually really like it !

I think it works just fine! You might find yourself occasionally correcting people who call her [name_f]Addie[/name_f], though.

Thank you!! I think it could work, I’m glad you like it :blush:

Do you want Edie as a nickname or middle name? It works as a nickname, and but is too close as a middle name.

Nickname definitely, I’m glad you think it works! It’s so close to [name_f]Addie[/name_f] I just much prefer the sound of [name_f]Edie[/name_f]!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] the suggestion of [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] nn [name_f]Edie[/name_f]. [name_f]Adeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] make the most adorable sibset!
