[name_f]Bri[/name_f] -short and cute, has been a fave of mine for years, once knew 2 [name_f]Bree[/name_f]'s and both happened to be the cutest little girls with reddish blonde hair-

[name_f]Jill[/name_f] -love the name [name_f]Jillian[/name_f] better than any full names for [name_f]Ally[/name_f] although [name_f]Ally[/name_f] is cute, I feel [name_f]Jillian[/name_f]/[name_f]Jill[/name_f] is more appealing to the eye

[name_f]Livy[/name_f]- I sort of know someone who goes by [name_u]Sammy[/name_u] and I don’t feel comfortable around this person, and [name_f]Livy[/name_f] I have always thought was cute for a nn

[name_f]Belle[/name_f]-I love music and [name_f]Paige[/name_f] is ok but too popular for my taste- [name_f]Belle[/name_f] is short and pretty without being frilly and cutesy, old fashioned in the best way and most likely to come back for these reasons
[name_f]Jane[/name_f] -know a really sweet and open-minded friend with this name

Marrisana or Trang-haven’t heard of either of these but neither are my taste-instead of Marrisana, which I would choose instead of Trang, I prefer [name_f]Marielle[/name_f] much better-Trang looks harsh and reminds me of the word Tang which isn’t exactly flattering

[name_f]Tiana[/name_f] b/c it is far less popular and still pretty with nn options

[name_f]Tabby[/name_f] b/c I’ve never liked [name_f]Bella[/name_f] but I much prefer [name_f]Tammy[/name_f]

[name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] b/c [name_u]Lisa[/name_u] doesn’t have nn options and [name_f]Kat/name_f or [name_u]Kay[/name_u] is an adorable nn option

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] b/c I was almost named this and it has grown on me-pretty without trying to hard and no need for nn’s b/c it is perfect as is

[name_f]Alivia[/name_f] -know how to pronounce this and [name_f]Livy[/name_f] is a great nn but prefer [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] despite the popularity ranking

Bri or Claire - [name_f]Claire[/name_f] as a full name
Ally or Jill - [name_f]Ally[/name_f] as a nn, but [name_f]Jill/name_f as a full name
Sammy or Livy - [name_f]Livy[/name_f]
Belle or Paige - [name_f]Belle[/name_f], classy and simple
Liv or Jane - [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
Marissana or Trang - neither…Trang seems very odd
Tiana or Emily - [name_f]Emily[/name_f]
Tabbi or Bella - [name_f]Tabbi[/name_f] as a nn for [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f]
Katelyn or Lisa - [name_u]Lisa[/name_u], I hate [name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] (for personal reasons)
Alice or Sasha - [name_f]Alice[/name_f]
Meli or Alivia - [name_f]Alivia[/name_f], unless you could find a cute full name for [name_f]Meli[/name_f]

[name_f]Bri[/name_f] or [name_f]Claire[/name_f]: [name_f]Claire[/name_f]. [name_f]Bri[/name_f] sounds and looks unfinished, or like a nickname, and reminds me of cheese. [name_f]Claire[/name_f] is light, pretty and classic.

[name_f]Ally[/name_f] or [name_f]Jill[/name_f]: [name_f]Jill[/name_f]. As someone with an [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]-variation as a full name, I really hate [name_f]Ally[/name_f] as a stand alone name. [name_f]Jill[/name_f] also feels like a nickname, but I really like [name_f]Jillian[/name_f], and I feel like it grows up better.

[name_u]Sammy[/name_u] or [name_f]Livy[/name_f]: Eh. [name_u]Sammy[/name_u], only because I like [name_u]Sam[/name_u]. [name_f]Livy[/name_f] is pretty bad though.

[name_f]Belle[/name_f] or [name_f]Paige[/name_f]: [name_f]Belle[/name_f]. I have bad associations with [name_f]Paige[/name_f]. Also, despite all the -bella names out there, I still think [name_f]Belle[/name_f] is a little quirky and sweet.

[name_f]Liv[/name_f] or [name_f]Jane[/name_f]: [name_f]Jane[/name_f]. This one is difficult, because I really like both, but I feel like [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is more versatile.

Marissana or Trang: Trang. I really don’t like how frilly and excessive Marissana looks, and Trang is different and feels upbeat to me. Not the prettiest sounding name, but I think it’s cool.

[name_f]Tiana[/name_f] or [name_f]Emily[/name_f]: [name_f]Emily[/name_f], though I don’t particularly like either. [name_f]Tiana[/name_f] is okay, but [name_f]Emily[/name_f] is a classic, so it wins out.

[name_f]Tabbi[/name_f] or [name_f]Bella[/name_f]: [name_f]Tabbi[/name_f]. [name_m]Way[/name_m] too man Bellas around, either as their full name or as nicknames. I really like [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f].

[name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] or [name_u]Lisa[/name_u]: [name_u]Lisa[/name_u], because I like [name_u]Lisa[/name_u] [name_m]Simpson[/name_m]. If it were [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f], though, I would have chosen that.

[name_f]Alice[/name_f] or [name_u]Sasha[/name_u]: Another hard one, but I think [name_f]Alice[/name_f]. I think it is sweet and simple. I think [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] reminds me too much of a boy nickname for [name_m]Alexander[/name_m].

[name_f]Meli[/name_f] or [name_f]Alivia[/name_f]: [name_f]Meli[/name_f]. It looks unfinished, but I really prefer [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] to [name_f]Alivia[/name_f]. [name_f]Alivia[/name_f] feels like an attempt to make [name_f]Olivia[/name_f] “more unique,” but since they sound exactly the same, it doesn’t really make a difference.

[name_f]Bri[/name_f] or [name_f]Claire[/name_f] - I dislike the name [name_f]Claire[/name_f], but [name_f]Bri[/name_f] looks unfinished.
[name_f]Ally[/name_f] or [name_f]Jill[/name_f] - Same goes here. [name_f]Ally[/name_f] is nickname-y, though I’m not the hugest fan of [name_f]Jill[/name_f].
[name_u]Sammy[/name_u] or [name_f]Livy[/name_f] - [name_u]Sammy[/name_u] is a boys’ name to me. I prefer [name_f]Livy[/name_f] spelled [name_f]Livie[/name_f].
[name_f]Belle[/name_f] or [name_f]Paige[/name_f] - [name_f]Paige[/name_f] is lesser-used; [name_f]Belle[/name_f] is overdone.
[name_f]Liv[/name_f] or [name_f]Jane[/name_f] - [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is a brave literary heroine in a variety of novels, while [name_f]Liv[/name_f] is an underage mother in a fantasy novel I once read.
Marissana or Trang - Trang looks like the slang/abbreviation for transgender, so Marissana. Though I dislike Marissana quite a bit as well; it looks made up. Might you like [name_f]Thalassa[/name_f]?
[name_f]Tiana[/name_f] or [name_f]Emily[/name_f] - [name_f]Tiana[/name_f] looks like [name_f]Tiara[/name_f]; frilly and princessy. [name_f]Emily[/name_f] is more versatile.
[name_f]Tabbi[/name_f] or [name_f]Bella[/name_f] - [name_f]Tabbi[/name_f] looks like tabby cat.
[name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] or [name_u]Lisa[/name_u] - though I prefer [name_f]Caitlin[/name_f]. [name_u]Lisa[/name_u] is dated.
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] or [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] - Reminds me of [name_f]Alice[/name_f] in Wonderland, whimsy and delight. Though [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] is cute and spunky as well.
[name_f]Meli[/name_f] or [name_f]Alivia[/name_f] - [name_f]Meli[/name_f] is kind of cute. [name_f]Alivia[/name_f] just looks tryndee.

7

[name_f]Bri[/name_f] or [name_f]Claire[/name_f] - [name_f]Claire[/name_f]. It has more substance and history.
[name_f]Ally[/name_f] or [name_f]Jill[/name_f]- [name_f]Jill[/name_f]. I prefer nicknames without ee sound at the end.
[name_u]Sammy[/name_u] or [name_f]Livy[/name_f] - [name_f]Livy[/name_f] because sounds more feminine than [name_u]Sammy[/name_u].
[name_f]Belle[/name_f] or [name_f]Paige[/name_f]-[name_f]Paige[/name_f] because it seems stronger than [name_f]Belle[/name_f].
[name_f]Liv[/name_f] or [name_f]Jane[/name_f]-[name_f]Jane[/name_f] for the same reason I prefer [name_f]Claire[/name_f] to [name_f]Bri[/name_f].
Marissana or Trang- Marrisana because it is more feminine than Trang.
[name_f]Tiana[/name_f] or [name_f]Emily[/name_f]- [name_f]Tiana[/name_f] because it is less common than [name_f]Emily[/name_f].
[name_f]Tabbi[/name_f] or [name_f]Bella[/name_f]- [name_f]Bella[/name_f] though I am not much of a fan of it. [name_f]Tabbi[/name_f] is not a name that would work well for an adult.
[name_f]Katelyn[/name_f] or [name_u]Lisa[/name_u]-[name_u]Lisa[/name_u] because I don’t like this spelling of [name_f]Katelyn[/name_f].
[name_f]Alice[/name_f] or [name_u]Sasha[/name_u]- [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] because it seems a little fresher.
[name_f]Meli[/name_f] or [name_f]Alivia[/name_f]- [name_f]Alivia[/name_f] as [name_f]Meli[/name_f] seems incomplete and doesn’t offer many options.

[name_f]Claire[/name_f]- it’s a lovely soft sounding name that just seems to feel more complete as a name compared to [name_f]Bri[/name_f]
[name_f]Jill[/name_f]- this was a hard one but [name_f]Jill[/name_f] sounds more complete and less nicknamey than [name_f]Ally[/name_f]
[name_u]Sammy[/name_u]- [name_u]Sammy[/name_u] is a cute nn and I really don’t like [name_f]Livy[/name_f]
[name_f]Paige[/name_f]- [name_f]Paige[/name_f] is a gorgeous name whereas [name_f]Belle[/name_f] is just too princessy to me
[name_f]Jane[/name_f]- [name_f]Jane[/name_f] is a classic staple in terms of names
Marissana- I’m not keen on either but Marissana just sounds more like a girls name, Trang is very hard sounding
[name_f]Emily[/name_f]- [name_f]Emily[/name_f] is a lovely soft name with more history that [name_f]Tiana[/name_f]
[name_f]Tabbi[/name_f]- I like [name_f]Tabbi[/name_f]/[name_f]Tabby[/name_f] as a nn for [name_f]Tabitha[/name_f], [name_f]Bella[/name_f] name’s are a little overdone
[name_f]Katelyn[/name_f]- I really like this name, probably because I never heard it when growing up in the 90’s, [name_u]Lisa[/name_u] reminds me of a barbie doll
[name_f]Alice[/name_f]- [name_f]Alice[/name_f] in wonderland, another lovely classic name
[name_f]Meli[/name_f]- I just prefer [name_f]Meli[/name_f] over [name_f]Alivia[/name_f], I don’t have much love for [name_f]Alivia[/name_f]/[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]/[name_f]Liv[/name_f] names
