Single syllable nns?
| Thu, 06-17-2004 - 11:51pm |
Well, like all little sisters, I'm sticking my nose where it doesn't belong : )
Tonight my sister and I were talking about babynames (since that seems to be on my mind lately) and we got on to girl names for her. She already has a dd named Margaret, which we all call Meg, so she wants another name that is long and classic, but can be shortened to a one syllable nn. Does anyone have any ideas? Margaret is kind of hard to match up with other names, imo. She's not even ttc, but I tend to have this naming obsession and thought I might come to you guys. Full name is Margaret Hope.
Thanks!!
Jorie
