I’m partial to [name_f]Posie[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_m]Polaris[/name_m], but [name_f]Polly[/name_f] would be a close second favourite. [name_m]Polaris[/name_m] is definitely bold, but I think it’s workable. [name_m]The[/name_m] [name_f]North[/name_f] [name_f]Star[/name_f] association is bright and positive; it has a long history of setting adventurers and sailers on the right path and I think that guidance and finding the right direction in life are great virtues to bestow on a child.
[name_f]Polly[/name_f] and [name_f]Lissy[/name_f] are both more approachable nicknames, which helps [name_m]Polaris[/name_m] feel more usable.
