I used to hate
Patty, but I'm really warming up to it. I would find it adorable if I found out a
Patricia went by
Patty and not
Trisha.
I wonder if
Pat,
Patty and
Patsy are out of favour because of teasing potential for "fat, fatty, fatso" rhyming taunts? Just-Patty (or maybe
Pattie?) would fit in with the Ellie-Sadie-Sophie-Elsie-Lily-Chloe-Zoe fashion....
