What do you think of the name Caroline? What nicknames could be associated with the name?

Thanks :)

It's an ok name. Here the nick is usually Caro.

There were a couple of girls at my school called Carrie and I think at least one was short for Caroline. I like Caroline and Carrie.

I know a Karolina who is Karo, and a Caroline who is Cai (I love that one!). Carrie is another fairly standard one. Obviously you could do something a bit different as well, like Rollie or Lina.

I think it's a nice name.

It makes me picture Lea Thompson. But since I've been watching my Caroline in the City DVDs I think I know why. :-)

It's pretty. I think on the show she mostly got called Caroline, or I think Remo called her Carolina (said as in Caroleena not as in South Carolina)

I like it. It's grown on my over the years. My cousin named her oldest daughter Caroline and I didn't like it then (that was 14 years ago!). I used to like Carolyn a lot more then caroline.. but now I guess I like them about the same! :)

Nicknames:
Cara
Carol (yuck)
Line (yeah a stretch I know.. but I could see people getting called this.)

Carolina is one of my Faaaavorite names! :)

all the carrie's I've known were just carrie's I didn't realize Carrie would be a nn for Caroline, but it totally makes sense. :)

Callie is a traditional nn for Caroline.

Yeah, my best friend's name is Caroline. A lot of people call her Caro... I call her Car a lot simply for time's sake.

I'm perfectly neutral toward that name. I'm more inclined to like it than not, but I have met such an overload of people with that name, that it seems a bit common.
If my name was Caroline, I could ask people to call me Carol, Carrie, or Cara.

I used to love the name Caroline, but now I'm kind of bored with it. I still think it's a good name, though. Carrie's the most common nickname I can think of.

I'm a Caroline and I love my name! It took me a really long time (until I was 14) to find nicknames that I like, but some of my friends call me Carli or Lina.

I know two really cute little girls named Caroline. So I really like the name, it's very elegant and classic without being overly common or frilly.

The two I know are nicknamed Callie and Lila respectivly, though for the most part they just go by Caroline.

[in_excelsis_dea.livejournal.com]

Callie, Carrie, Cara, Caro (which I don't like), Linnie, Ro, Ari.

I like Lila too.

Not big on the name, though.

Aw, I used to love that show! :)

[abandoneddream.livejournal.com]

I like that one the best, so far; but, we had a dog by that name when I was a kid. :/

[abandoneddream.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I like that it is elegant and classic, too. Lila is nice, thanks. :)

The only Caroline I know goes by Caz.

Caroline's my name! It was actually a relief to have a name in school that I didn't have to share with 8 other girls and that was (semi) easy for people to pronounce.

I go by Caroline, but some friends and family members call me Caro.

It's a great name!

I love the name Caroline. I knew of a Caroline called Carrie, but I always thought the nickname Carly would be cute for it.

[fleckerbug.livejournal.com]

Love it.

Cara
Carrie
Carebear..
Linnie

[ex-ollivande895.livejournal.com]

Caro reminds me of Karo syrup, ahahaha.

[eleanorgrace.livejournal.com]

I like Care, because it's so short. But that would probably be more of a conversational nickname than a written-down one.

[ex-bluebonn.livejournal.com]

I love the name Caroline. Nicknames I like include Caro, Carol, Car, and Caz.

[abandoneddream.livejournal.com]

haha! That is what I keep thinking! :)

[abandoneddream.livejournal.com]

Linnie is cute, thanks... :)

[starrkissed.livejournal.com]

I'm not a fan, but I'd use the NN Cari.

:P

The only association I can think of is a positive one - Status Quo's song 'Sweet Caroline'.
