I once had a coworker whose teenage daughter was a Mattie. I'm fairly certain it's the only one I've come across. People have misspelled it, and asked "Are you a Madison or a Madeline?" all her life. But it's just Mattie, not short for Matilda or likewise. Another honoring granddaughter named after a great grandma. I like Mattie too but do prefer it as a NN to Matilda or Matthew. As opposed to Hattie where I still prefer it as a stand-alone since I dislike Harriet and Henrietta. Like 6 years ago I was REALLY into the combo Hattie Matilda for a while and now I just think the rhyming prefixes are a sin, lol.
