Could [name]Alice[/name] work as a NN for [name]Althea[/name]? Any ideas for a full name with NN [name]Alice[/name]? Is [name]Alice[/name] even NN material?
Could [name]Rose[/name] work for [name]Ramona[/name]? If not, any ideas?
I don’t think either of those could work for nicknames. [name]Alice[/name] as a nickname for [name]Althea[/name] is just too big a stretch. I think [name]Alice[/name] is fine as a name on it’s own.
Same for [name]Rose[/name] for [name]Ramona[/name]- it’s just too much of a stretch. Again, [name]Rose[/name] is fine on its own.
[name]Althea[/name], nickname [name]Thea[/name], [name]Alta[/name], [name]Tea[/name]
[name]Ramona[/name], nickname [name]Mona[/name], [name]Ramy[/name], [name]Ona[/name]
I don’t think either of those really work in an obvious way. You can call your kid anything you want but I wouldn’t get either of those nicknames from their names. For [name]Althea[/name], [name]Ally[/name] or [name]Thea[/name]. For [name]Ramona[/name], [name]Mona[/name] or maybe [name]Romy[/name].
For [name]Alice[/name], use it as a whole name or a nickname for [name]Allison[/name] or [name]Alyssa[/name]. For [name]Rose[/name], I’d stick with a long-form like [name]Rosalie[/name] or [name]Rosamund[/name].
[name]Romy[/name]/[name]Rommie[/name]/[name]Ro[/name] would be what I think of for [name]Ramona[/name], which is, btw, an absolutely fabulous name. I don’t think of [name]Rose[/name] with [name]Ramona[/name], though. So many R names get that (I like [name]Rosamund[/name] and [name]Rosemary[/name]…) but [name]Ramona[/name] doesn’t resonate with that to me.
Turning a great, unfloral R pick like [name]Ramona[/name] or [name]Raphaela[/name] into [name]Rose[/name] seems a bit of a confusion/waste to me, though I like [name]Rose[/name] on its own.
I think [name]Rose[/name] and [name]Alice[/name] are fine just on their own. They are a bit of a stretch, but maybe if the middle names had the “S” sound in it it would work!
In example [name]Althea[/name] [name]Reese[/name] “[name]Alice[/name]” or [name]Ramona[/name] [name]Scarlett[/name] “[name]Rose[/name]” (those were totally random btw:P)
