amelia nicknames

[coranne.livejournal.com]

So Dh and I really like Amelia for a girl's name, but I want to be able to have a nickname for her.  He really likes Mia, but I really like Millie.

I have nothing against Mia (other than I am a teacher and had a Mia who was a holy terror- and I always think about her when I say Mia), but does Millie sound like an old lady name?

I just picture a little dark haired girl with blue eyes name Millie....


Am I nuts?

my cousin calls her daughter millie but with more of a "meal-ee" sound to it. I loathe mia, though. but that's more from ED perspective.

My sister (Amelia) was always "meal-ee" when she was younger.
