Help[Opinions] I think people are more apt to use Mira as a nickname
in reply to a message by Ciarda
Longer names with nicknames tend to be the vogue in the US. As you know my niece is Miranda nn Mira (but goes by nothing else) and I suspect many others are. I wonder what its' stats would be if you combined it with the amount of little girls with the nn Mira. (I have to say that I'm rather disappointed my SIL had such good taste. :-D)
As for the other names:
Mirai - I love it and will be adding it to my list. It's very much my style, which means that my boyfriend wouldn't use it. And pretty cool (and apt) meaning.
Miriana - Would get lost in the tons of Anas out there, I think. It's very pretty...but sooo close to Mariana, Brianna, Liliana, Tatiana - shall I continue? Too bad, I love it.
Meira - Ditto Mirai. Very much my style, great name, lovely sound. Earthy without being ordinary. Two thumbs up for me. :-D

Thanks for replying Siri ; )
I think you're right about the nicknames, I bet there are several other Mira's out there that have a longer full name. The similar name Amira is actually #522, I was rather surprised to see that it's popularity is so much higher than Mira.
I'm really liking Mirai lately, though if I say it too fast it comes out as MRI. Which means my family would pick up on it quickly and tease about it.
I completely agree about Miriana and I don't think I would actually use it, but I do think that it has a pretty sound.

So your family is full of teasers, too?
I was talking to my brother about Raphael and he couldn't get the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles out of his head. I told him he couldn't tease my son about it...and he replied "So no going 'So, you like pizza?'"
ARGH!

Haha, yep. And your brother sounds exactly like my brothers. Everytime I come up with a name I start thinking about how my family will react to it.
