    Thanks for everyone's input. Unfortunately, I am not really into any of those names. I think Mariah Carey goes by Mimi... or at least that is what her album is called.

    "The girl's name Mimi is pronounced MEE-mee. It is of French origin. Pet name for Marilyn or Miriam. Also used as a Spanish pet name for Mira, Maria, and Noemi. First used by parents after the appearance of Puccini's famous opera "La Boheme" and its tragic heroine Mimi. "

    I think Mimi is really cute nn but I would be careful. DD's grandma goes by Mimi as her grandma name which is pretty common at least in the South.

    I think you could get away with using Mimi as nn for almost any "M" name.

    Really I think it can be used for nearly and name beginning with "M". Or even some with M in them.

    The two that I know that often go by Mimi are Megan and Mila.

    I like this background. It makes it seem like Mimi can stand on it's own. Thanks
