Which name? To nickname.

[clutterbang.livejournal.com]

So I need to name my daughter already! She's been here three days and I'm getting sick of calling her 'the baby' to her brothers. Her brothers are Fin Diego (usually called Fin-D, as the nick Finny makes me want to stab bunnies) and Che' Montreo (Che-M, which actually grew on us surprisingly quick), and her name will be (something short) Cielo. 

This is our shortlist.
Nye Cielo (which I just love the flow of)
Kit Cielo (Kit is just adorable to me, my favourite stand-alone first name)
Day Cielo 

Now, Day turns into to the rather neat nick of Day-C, or Daisy. Kit-C (kitschy) is also kind of cute, although Kit is more likely to be nicknamed into Kitty. But whatevs. Kit-C has an OK ring to me. The problem is with Nye - I love how the whole name is sciencey (Cielo BTW is what they named (after the Spanish word obviously) this computer that simulates asteroid collisions with Earth XD Geek flag flyin'!) but Nye-C has got to be the most horrible nick I've matched with any of my choices. Nicey? Yeah, uh, nope. 

Here are my questions, then. Can you think of any good nicks for Nye Cielo? AND. While you're here, tell me which of these three names suit my little baby bean best (I went through a stage of wanting to name her Bean but partner vetoed because of Mr. Bean XD).

Nye makes me think of Bill Nye the Science Guy. My vote is for Kit Cielo.

Congratulations, btw. She's beautiful.

I also like Kit Cielo the best! Very cute. And she is PRECIOUS.

I like Day! It's unusual but I think it would work nicely with her siblings.

If you want to use Nye you could do Ny-lo, pulling the -lo off the end of Cielo instead of the cie-. Ny-lo is kind of cute.

I don't like "kitschy" very much. Day and Day-C are nice though.

Ah she's gorgeous :D I like Kit best. Its probably not a name I'd have ever thought of but its really cute :)

Voting for Kit! (Side note: you've just reminded me of a girl I knew in high school, Kittery, and I will be adding both to my name list!)

Day Cielo goes best with your other kids' names.

[sictransitsuzy.livejournal.com]

I like Day and Daisy a lot.

Instead of Nye-C, what about Nye-Lo?

I like... Day > Kit > Nye.

Nye reminds me of Bill Nye, who I actually like, but... just not as a name for a little girl.

I think Day really fits with the other names, Kit, too.

Aww, so sweet :)

Day or Kit. Day-C is super cute!

[earn-my-wings.livejournal.com]

Kit all the way!! It's adorable and reminds me of the American Girl doll, Kit. So cute!!

[sageharper.livejournal.com]

Congrats, she's adorable. :)
I really like Kit Cielo and think it suits her.

[naturedichotomy.livejournal.com]

I like Nye, personally, and second the people who mentioned Nye-Lo.

[fiending.livejournal.com]

Day :)

I like Nye and Ny-lo the best. It does remind me of bill nye the science guy but i can get past it.

Second is Kit, that is cute.

I like Day the best, followed by Kit. Nye is nice, I just can't think of any nicknames, and Daisy/DayC is just too fantastic to pass up! And congratulations, she is lovely!


*My SO suggested Nova as a nn for Nye, but it seems like a completely separate name to me.

Day is adorable, and I like Kit as well. I'm not sure how to pronounce Nye.

[miss-tee.livejournal.com]

KIT!

[pixie-bones.livejournal.com]

Kit.

[greyhowl.livejournal.com]

So what did you decide? :)

[clutterbang.livejournal.com]

We call her many things. XD We cheated, Nye Cielo is on the birth cert but we also call her Kit. :)
