1. No. I don't like any of the nicknames my name has. I don't have kids, but some of them might have nicknames (mostly the boys.)
2. I really dislike when people call me Rach, Rachie, or... Rachello :[.
3. I prefer names without nicknames, generally. However,
Mordecai I -would- call
Cai.
Ashley could go by
Ash or AJ if he wants.
Lucian could be
Luc.
4. I'm worried
Edward might end up being
Ed or
Eddie, neither of which I like.
Jacob I won't even use as a FN because I don't want a
Jake.
5. Generally, I don't like NNs as full names.
Kate and
Jack are okay, but I'd still prefer a full name for
Jack. I don't like any of the others on their own.
Oh but I like
Noll and I think that can work on it's own.
