What are some full names you could use? My dh already X'd Caliana.
TIA
Hey Leah, fancy meeting you on this board :)
What about the full name Calliope? I love it, and it sounds so lyrical. It's pronounced Cal-Eye-Oh-Pee with the emphasis on the "Eye" syllable. I don't mean to be condescending, but I know a little girl with this name (she's so cute), and people call her Cal-EE-Ope sometimes (though not often).
Then Calli or Callie could work as her nickname.
Callista could be a full name for Callie. I kind of like that.
I like the poster's suggestion of Calla- I do think that's lovely but in a way I think a nn for that is kind of unnecessary, since both Calla and Callie have 2 syllables...and Callie actually has MORE letters than Calla does, lol....
Sometimes what I think is nice is if you take a syllable from the first name and a syllable from the middle name and put them together to make a nn that you like. So for example:
Cassandra Leigh- ("ca" from Cassandra and "lee" from Leigh = Callie)
Carrisa Emmeline (again, the first name has the "ca" sound in it, the middle name has the "lee" sound)...
Just a thought...
best wishes to you!
