Naming baby after my nickname

My name is Sarah and my parents and other close relatives have called me Sally over the years. When we found out we’re having a girl, my sisters thought Sally would be a cute name. I have an affection for the name anyway and like the sound of it. Is it narcissistic to name baby Sally when my name is Sarah?

Re: Naming baby after my nickname

  • It is extremely common to name a child after their father, I see absolutely no issue with naming a child after their mother, especially giving them a cute nickname that is actually a perfectly lovely first name in it's own right. If you and your partner both love the name I'd say go ahead :)
