Any ideas on names that can be shortened

Hi i need some help on names that are long but can be shortened.
Like Pierson can be shortened to Piers which is lovely but i need more ideas??????????????????
BoyS or girls it doesn't matter

:doh: I replied to your post then lost it!

It's hard to narrow down a list from what you have described, but I thought I'd throw a couple at you :)

Boys - Jacob (shortened to Jake) or William (shortened to Will, Bill or Billy)

Girls - Elizabeth (shortened to Beth, Liz or Lizzie) or Catherine (shortened to Cath or Cathy or Kate)

HTH :)

We have an Alexandria (Ally) and Imogen (Immy)
Most names can be shortened to something.

lachlan - locky
christopher - chris
anthony - tony
andrew - andy
steven - steve
jason- jay
joseph - joe
phillip - phil
samuel - sam
leroy- lee
daniel - danny

i could go on fo days. I agree that most names can and will be shortened

Alexis (Alex or Lex)
Annabelle (Belle or Bella)
Cendrine (Drine)
Melita (Mel)
Ariane (Ari)
Adele (Del
Antoinette (Antoin)
Janine (Nine)
Adam (Ad)
Jaiden (Jai)
Alexander (Alex)

Why don't you work the other way around? Find a short name you like and then figure out a longer version of it?

Thanks girls.
I know just about every name can be shortened but i was kind of looking for a name within a name if that makes sence at all.hehe
Thanks for all the help

Er, my personal fave ... Cameron = Cam (or in our case, Cammie!) :lol:
