I'm really beginning to like the name Freddie (for a boy). I usually dislike too nickname-y names, but somehow I like Freddie better on its own than as a mere NN for some other name. It's probably because Frederick, Manfred, Wilfred, Alfred, and other 'fred' names are just "meh." or OK to me (the only one I really, really like is Winifred, but alas - I don't like the nn Freddie on a girl). Do you think Freddie is strong enough to stand on its own? If not, can you suggest me any names it could be a NN for other than the ones I already mentioned?
