This name is really growing on me and since I can't commit to any name on our current list, I'm wondering what you all think of this one... any nicknames for this besides Daph?
Big sis is Clara... our top two names have been Charlotte & Eleanor, but fear the popularity factor of both (well, Ellie for Eleanor).
Re: Thoughts on Daphne?
I think it's a great name choice. It's not very common, but still "normal".
I can't think of any other nn's though!
eta: I also really like it with Clara
Daphne is NMS; however, it is a good classic name.
I love Charlotte, but if you fear the popularity you may want to go with Daphne.
You could use Charlotte or Eleanor as a MN.
Daphne Charlotte & Daphne Eleanor sound lovely. That way you can use the names that you do like.

I see Daphne, I say Daffy. I know how to say the name properly, but Daffy always comes to mind first.
I'm not a fan.
It's alright; better than Zoe and Chloe, not as cute as Penelope.
I'm not sure why you're searching for a nickname for something that's only two syllables and already ends in the "ee" sound.
I think Clara and Daphne make a really cute sibset.
