Help[Opinions] Re: Jessie
in reply to a message by Lily
If you're only planning to use Jessie, then surely it doesn't matter much if you give her a "full" name or not. What would matter, to me anyway, is that giving a child just a nicknamey name means they have fewer choices later on, when it'll be out of your hands.
I was at school with a Jessie Mary; she had Scottish ancestry, and it seems that Jessie can be or once could be a nn for Janet. That would be a stretch! But Jessamine nn Jessie would make perfect sense and give her Jessa, Mimi, Minnie etc as options - and she might not want to change, but if a porn star or a serial killer named Jessie ever lives in the same town, more wiggle room rather than less could be very welcome.
The Jessicas I know have all been Jessica or Jess. Not a Jessie among them!
