Is anyone afraid to use a name because of the awful nicknames that come with it? I recently posted one of our (FI and my) favorite boy names, Henry, and received good feedback. Nicknames must be considered, however.

Harry is okay, but...eh. And Hank? God.

Any cute nicknames for Henry? Oh, and feel free to share your names (with not-so-wonderful nicknames) as well.

;D

I think of Harry as more of a nickname for Harold.

I think Hank is kind of cute! You could always do Ren.

I agree, Harry is not a nickname for Henry.

And I don't like nicknames in general. Why can't people just be called by their actual names.
