Hi friends, I’m trying to name baby number 3 and our first boy. Last name is short, one syllable, and starts with W. Because of this, I’m looking for longer baby boy names, that also have longer nicknames. (Example… even though Benjamin and Christopher are longer names, they get shortened too easily to Ben or Chris!) Thanks for any suggestions!

I always thought the point of a NN was to shorten the longer given name. Hence why its a NN.
Probably not what you are looking for, but:
Ezekiel - Zeke Zachariah- Zach Alexander - Alex or Xander Vincent- Vince Samuel- Sam Remington- Remi Charles - Charlie
I don't really know many names that have long nicknames but here are some long names that people don't automatically use short nicknames for, that I think go nicely with Lydia and Eliza
