I think the name Josie is adorable, but I'm not a big fan of Josephine. I've never been one who's all about giving kids a name that's just a nn, but what do you think? For some reason, I just can't seem to ditch it off my girl list.

    My first thought was Josette. But then, my cousin's name is Jozelle, (Joselle), and goes by Josie.

    Josie works as a stand alone name, IMO.

    Josie totally works as a stand alone name.  I love it. 

    I named my DD Joesphine, but we call her Joey.....lol.

    She tells everyone she was named after a baby kangaroo.

    I am luke warm as Josie as a stand alone name.  To me it works about as well as Katie.  Do people do it?  Yea.  But will most people assume Josie is short for something?  Probably.

    I like Josephine but if you don't like that I have seen Jocelyn and Josette as formal names for Josie.  I think they are all pretty.  Josie is adorable, just a little cutesy...

    Yep, same here.  I have a 2 year old cousin named Josie Rose - she was named after my great-aunt Josephine (she was always Auntie Josie or Auntie Jo anyway)
