I have three dds and with our youngest,
Anna, my dh and I like to call her
Annie but I can't picture and don't like anyone else doing so. One reason is that when we had our first dd,
Katherine, everyone called her
Katie until she decided she wanted to be called the more grown up
Kate. It hasn't been easy for some family members to switch. OTOH, I have a nephew
Steven who was called
Stevie until he was 12 and then he decided he wanted to be called
Steve. it seemed pretty easy at the time.
What I'm getting at is that you could call him
Tommy. It could be your special nn for him while everyone else calls him
Thomas. BTW, I love
Charlotte and
Thomas as a sibset!
