I found an interesting, Dutch site about popular Dutch names. One of the list on that site is a list of the most popular unisex names.
There are some really interesting choices there. Also, no, those names are not short for anything, we don't do the whole name-your-kid-something-long-and-then-give-it-a-nickname thing here. That is, most people don't do that.


Sam
Jaimy
Nicky
Bo/Beau
Sasha
Marijn
Jip
Quincy
Dominique
Frederique
Ezra
Rowan
Bobbie
Merlijn
Dante
Mickey
Charlie
Chris
Nur
Sammy
Isaya
Lesley

PS. Frederique on a boy? Dante on a girl? Those two are crazy, IMO.
PPS.It's difficult to explain what the 'ij' sounds like...I suppose the closest you can get in English to get the same pronunciation is the letter 'i'.

I love the name Ezra.
