Thoughts on Ty

I love the nickname Ty, but I don't think it works as a standalone name. I can't seem to find a full name that I like, however. Tyler doesn't work because our last name ends in -er so I think it sounds funny. Other thoughts?

    I think Ty is fine as a stand alone name. The only other thing I can think of is Tyson, which isn't bad, but I prefer just Ty.

    I agree, Ty doesn't work as a standalone. Suggest

    Tryone
    Tyrell
    Tyson

    More of a stretch usage for Ty as a nn

    Titius
    Tennyson
    Terence
    Tybalt
    Tiberius
    Tiernan
    Tighe
    Timothy
    Tracy
    Tycho

    I know a little boy named Ty and a little boy named Tyson. I'm their daycare teacher and since I say both of their names' like thirty times a day, I will say that I prefer just Ty.

    Well I'm with you on not liking Tyler, but after looking at some websites for Ty and Ti names, most of your options have already been listed above.

    I think Titus is my favorite of the suggestions. I don't think Ty works as a name on its own.

    Thanks...I've looked a bunch and couldn't find any I really liked. I do like Timothy, but do you guys think Ty is a stretch as a nn for it?

    What about a first name with the letter t and the middle name with the letter y?

    I personally don't like ty as a standalone name, but I don't think it's terrible. I went to high school with a ty and called him Tyler once and he freaked out on me... Haha. So, I think people will assume his name is Tyler if they don't know any different, but that's not a big deal.
