Cody

[stardottedeyes.livejournal.com]

My fiance both like the name Cody for a boy. We were discussing it, and in my opinion it sounds a lot more like a nickname than an actual name, and certainly sounds better on a child than an adult. However, I can't think of anything that it could potentially be a nickname for.

Any ideas?

My boyfriend's nephew is named Cody and when I was talking to his sister-in-law about my child's name (having a few variations of his choice when he's older), she wished that she would have named him something where he'd have a choice to use something else as a nickname. I forget his middle name but it was something "more adult" (I think maybe John, that's his dad's name).

So if you want to go for Cody, I'd say go for it. He might like it, it might fit him, and/or choose a middle name that's a little more grown up.
