A new this or that game! Pick your favourite between the given origin and diminutive, then leave a set for the next poster.
The “origin” doesn’t have to be The Original, you can say “Katherine or Kitty” instead of “Aikaterina or Kitty” if you prefer. Diminutives can be flexible too, like nicknames with multiple first names, Anglicized spellings, etc.
Probably not so interesting to anyone other than me, but the first 3 names & replies amused me as I’m living with [name_f]Sarah[/name_f], who’s children are [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] and [name_u]Robert[/name_u] - so it’s sweet to see those as the preference between origin and diminutive!
[name_f]Daisy[/name_f] for a first name, [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] as a middle name
[name_f]Amabel[/name_f] or [name_f]Mabel[/name_f]?
