My family members are huge into nicknames, and DH and I like them, too. DD is Noelle, nn Noey.
What are the nn that you know for Caroline?
BFP #1 6/3/10 | EDD 2/5/11 | Noelle born 1/28/11 BFP #2 12/20/11 | EDD 8/24/12 | Natural M/C 12/22/11 BFP #3 5/13/12 (Mother's Day!) | EDD 1/23/13 | Natural M/C 6/9/12 (blighted ovum discovered 6/7/12 at 7w1d) "And to think when their little eyes opened, the first thing they saw was the face of Jesus."

Caroline is one of our top names (right now, anyway), and I'm pretty sure we'd just call her Caroline. But I'm open to nns like Carrie and Cara if they happen organically.
We have a Caroline who we call by her full name. We don't like any of the nicknames. I'm sure she'll go by one if she wants when she's older. However, her dcp (who is Israeli) calls her Carolina and shortens it to Lena, which I think is beautiful, but it's a stretch

I came here to ask the exact came question! We've chosen Caroline but my SIL is Carolyn so she'll probably go by a nickname sometimes. Right now we're leaning toward Carly or Callie.
I generally just say whatever comes out of my mouth for a nickname, so I'd probably call a Caroline just Care. Someone else mentioned Carebear, but that would probably be just something cute around the house.

I know a Carrie who is a Caroline.
Personally I think its such a pretty name, why make it sound less beautiful?

Please don't ruin Caroline by calling her Carol. It's so pretty by itself, it doesn't need a NN
These are all I can think of as well
I agree with the bolded.
I am Caroline
My sister has always called me Care
My dad called me Lina (pronounced Line-uh) when I was little or he called me Care-Bear.
But otherwise no one else ever called me anything other than Caroline
