Some nns age well, like Chris or Charlie; some work well on the right person, like Jimmy or Bobby. Some do not work at all past early childhood, and Timmy and Teddy are prime examples. I do know a Teddy who's probably in his sixties, but his name is Theodore. It suits him but only just; Ted is much more appropriate for a grown man or even a teenager.
