What do you think of Cas?

Girl Names
1

I’ve been thinking about the name [name_m]Cas[/name_m] for a girl. I already really like it for a boy, but I don’t like the [name_u]Cass[/name_u] spelling on a boy or a girl. So, what do you think? I think I like it as a stand alone name, but what would you use it as a nickname for?

I like it, but more as a nickname.

[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]
[name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassie[/name_f]
[name_m]Castiel[/name_m]
[name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]

It’s very short, it can’t stand on its iwn

I think it is too nicknamey for my taste, but if [name_u]Cass[/name_u] can work, then why not [name_m]Cas[/name_m]? I think my more formal or a longer name might be more suitable or look better for résumés and such, but it isn’t necessary.
[name_f]Cassia[/name_f]
[name_f]Kacia[/name_f]
[name_u]Casey[/name_u]
[name_f]Cerys[/name_f] / [name_f]Carys[/name_f]
You might also like [name_u]Cade[/name_u], [name_u]Jace[/name_u], [name_m]Chance[/name_m], [name_u]Chase[/name_u], [name_u]Rhys[/name_u], [name_u]Flynn[/name_u], [name_u]Bryn[/name_u], [name_f]Bree[/name_f], [name_u]Evan[/name_u], [name_u]Jude[/name_u], [name_u]Joss[/name_u], or [name_u]Seth[/name_u] for a girl as well.

I think it’s lacking something by itself. I much prefer it as a nickname ([name_f]Cassia[/name_f], [name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f], [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u], [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]).

I like [name_m]Cas[/name_m] as it is–short and sweet, just like [name_u]Misha[/name_u] (well at least compared to [name_m]Jared[/name_m]). But I do agree it could be a little TOO short for a first name. What about [name_m]Cas[/name_m] as a nickname for [name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f] ([name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] [name_u]Sullivan[/name_u], protagonist in The Fifth Wave series, [name_f]Queen[/name_f] [name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f] from greek mythology) [name_m]Castiel[/name_m] (angel name in Supernatural, goes by [name_m]Cas[/name_m]), [name_m]Cassiel[/name_m] (The angel whom [name_m]Castiel[/name_m] was built on), [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] (also from greek mythology), [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] or even [name_f]Cassie[/name_f]. My personal favourate is [name_m]Castiel[/name_m], followed closely behind by [name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f] ([name_f]Cassie[/name_f] for short sometimes) and then [name_m]Cassiel[/name_m]. But then again, I’m a huge fangirl so I am a bit bias.

[name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]
Castalia
[name_f]Cassie[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassiopia[/name_f]

I actually like [name_m]Cas[/name_m] alone! :slight_smile:

I see I’m not the only one who immediately thought of Supernatural! I much prefer [name_m]Cas[/name_m] on a boy, and would probably use [name_f]Cassie[/name_f] as a girl’s nickname. But if you like [name_m]Cas[/name_m] for a girl, here are some longer versions:

[name_f]Cassiopeia[/name_f]
[name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]
[name_f]Cassia[/name_f] (pronounced more like cah-sia, with a soft a sound, but [name_m]Cas[/name_m] could work)
[name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassie[/name_f]
[name_f]Cassondra[/name_f]
