I've always envied people who can shorten their name, mine just can't be shortened.
Because of this, I have always found myself seeking baby names that not only sound lovely on their own merit but can be shortened into many or a few cute nic names.
- Delilah
Origin:
Hebrew or ArabicMeaning:
"delicate"Description:
Melodic and lively, Delilah has cut itself (mostly) free from its treacherous past to become a contemporary favorite.
- Archer
Origin:
EnglishMeaning:
"bowman"Description:
Archer is an Anglo-Saxon surname that feels more modern than most because of its on-target occupational and Hunger Games associations. And it's a nice way to bypass the clunky Archibald to get to the cool nickname Archie.
- Tullia
Origin:
Feminine from of Tullius, RomanMeaning:
"meaning unknown"Description:
The unusual and intriguing Tullia has been used since Roman times and may appeal to parents who like Tallulah, Julia, and Lillia but want something that's very rarely heard.
