Baby Names

Name Dilemma

Hi Ladies!

Ok, so long ago the hubbs and I decided on what our future children's names would be. 

Girl:  Juliet Elizabeth

Boy:  Brodie William

Here's my issue:  I love the names, but I also love nicknames.  Neither of these names can really be shortened, can they?  I'm starting to have second thoughts now!  What do you think?

Re: Name Dilemma

  • Juliet could be Jules.  Brodie could be "B".  I like "B" better than Brodie which makes me think of grody.
  • I love your girl name choice.  I'm not a fan of shortening names but you could shorten it to Julie.

    Brody is NMS at all and I can't think of a nn either.  Sorry.

    This is what I was thinking.  I also thought Jules would work.

  • I like names that don't have nicknames, so I can't help you out here!  I do know a Juliet that is called Julie sometimes, and it could be Jules, too.

    I LOVE your girl name. Juliet can go by Jules or Julie, but I think Juliet is gorgeous on it's own :)
  • love your girl name, and jules and julie are popular nicknames.

    not a fan of brody or brodie, just makes me think of brody jennier.. haha

    I think Brady is cute though.

  • I also agree that Juliet could be Jules or Julie.  I have a friend named Julie that I call Ju.  Brodie also makes me think of grody, but so do Grady and Brady.  I think Brodie looks feminine too spelled that way.

  • LOVE Juliet Elizabeth.  I also like the nns Julie and Jules.  I really dislike Brodie because of the grody thing.

  • I dont think you should change your name choices just because theres no nickname if you really like and both agree on them.

    My dad calls me a nickname that hasnt even got anything to do with my name
