Nicknames

Are there any nicknames for Søren or Julius? Do they even need nicknames--they're not really long names, right? FYI, our last name is Walker, so Jay is not a good nickname for Julius because then he'd be a jaywalker. Their full names would be Julius Hayek Walker and Søren Lysander Walker. The names are not up for debate; my husband insists on the middle names and these were the only first names we could both agree on. Also, I dislike the nickname Sandy for a boy (if you were going to use the middle name Lysander).

I hope you don't mind me asking, but how is it more likely to be given to girls? I'm doing first year or biomedical science at the moment, and we learned that sex-linked disorders from the X chromosome are more likely to affect boys, due to the fact that boys only have one them. Unless the father is also a carrier, girls have a lesser chance of getting them.

I'm just curious :) I think this stuff is interesting.
