William

in Baby Names

Never liked the name until I heard a 6 year old boy calling his older brother, William. It was so cute sounding, I loved it. 

 It's a good name for an adult, I'm not sure if I really like it though. :/

And I don't think Alexia and William fit. (Besides being names of royalty, there's no connection)

I don't like any of the nicknames for it though, so I was thinking of calling him Liam. Is that too far fetched?

    Why not just name him Liam?

    If we have a boy we are going to name him William. His nn will be Liam. I think its a cute name and will age well with him.

    I love William. I like the nickname Will but Liam is definitely a nickname for William so I'd use it.

    William was our boy name. No Billy or Bill though. If you wanted to shorten you could say "will". I adore that name.

    Will is my chosen boy name. And we will either be called Will or William. No Bills or Billys here.

    I love Liam as a nn, but my last name starts with and M so it doesn't sound right. (I know William ends in M as well, but it't just a different sound)

    Ditto! We're planning on naming our son William but the only nickname we like is Will. Unfortunately our family is already referring to him as Billy boy. I'm worried that might ruin it for me by April. I dislike Liam and my cousin used it already anyway.
