The Nickname Game

Baby Name Games
1

Sometimes when I have to stay awake for something or am really bored I try to take a common nickname and see how many possible first names I can come up with from it, and vice versa. I thought we could play something like that here.

For example if I give the nickname [name]Tessa[/name] and the first name [name]Genevieve[/name], the next poster would come up with as many first names as they can for [name]Tessa[/name] and as many nicknames as they could for [name]Genevieve[/name]. Then they would leave a nickname and a first name for the next poster.
[name]Tessa[/name]:
[name]Teresa[/name], [name]Tamsin[/name], [name]Beatrice[/name], Contessa, [name]Thomasina[/name], [name]Patrice[/name].

[name]Genevieve[/name]:
[name]Genna[/name], [name]Gennie[/name], [name]Ginny[/name], [name]Eve[/name], [name]Eva[/name], [name]Evie[/name], [name]Vivi[/name], [name]Gigi[/name].

For the next poster: [name]Posey[/name] & [name]Eleanor[/name].
