Do you think the name Leah could be used as a nn for Amelia? I'm not even sure we'll use a nn, but I'm just curious on your thoughts. Any other nickname possibilities? I like Mia, but don't really love it with our last name. I do not like Amy.
I think you could, but you could just name her Leah if you really like that name. Do you not like the spelling of Lia? I think it's kind of cute now that I look at it.
I think if you want to call her Leah for short it should be spelled Lia, otherwise it doesn't really make sense. I definitely think it's an acceptable nn for Amelia.
My DD's name is Lia, it's the Italian version of Leah (Hebrew). Now that she's here, it seems like Lias are coming out of the woodwork ~ I've met 4 in the last year alone.
It would be a big stretch for me, because I pronounce the end of Amelia (A-meal-ya) nothing like Leah. I don't think Amelia needs a nickname, and if she ends up with one just let it happen naturally.
Re: nn for Amelia?
I think with a name as pretty as Amelia, you definitely don't need a nn
If you want to give her one, I think it will sort of grow organically once she's here!
I think Leah from Amelia is a stretch. I don't think Amelia needs a nickname.
I don't see why not.
Other possibilities: Emme, Emmie, Millie
