Neat Web Site! :)

I just stumbled across this Web site that gives you various nicknames, alternate spellings and TEASING potential when you search for a name. I know a lot of people have been asking about things like this - especially the teasing aspects - in their posts lately, so I thought some of you might like to look up the names you're considering and see what comes up.

Incidentally, I think the first "mean" nn listed when I looked up Abigail was "Flabby Abby," particularly worrisome if she would have a weight problem (although my other girls are tiny little peanuts, but you never know, right?!). Just made me even happier we'd decided to go with Aila as a nn instead. ;)

Anyway, here's the link! Hope someone else finds it useful (or at least entertaining). ;)

That's great, Kelli. It reminds me of a book I got for a stocking stuffer a few years back:

I always go to that site! If you just type it www.babynamer.com it goes to the same site too. Its also nice becuase if you click the "similar" link it will give you names that are similar by popularity, origin, sound, etc.
