baby name question
If someone were to name a baby Amelia would it be OK to call her Mia for short? Or is that just a totally different name and should said person just pick one or the other?
Re: baby name question
I suppose you could. I had a great aunt named Amelia and we called her Aunt Melia, kinda sounds like Mia?
I usually hear people who name their kids Amelia call them Em or Emmy
Baby Macy is here!

One of my best friend's daughter is named Amelia and everyone calls her Mia.
Oh wow, there are other Amelia/Mia's out there? So it's not completely crazy, thanks ladies! Just brainstorming right now but I'm really feeling this one.
Kathy, I think I'm going to really like omgmom.com but my computer is being super annoying right now. I bookmarked it, thanks
OR William and Bill, lol, I like it
Married Bio
My #1 choice was Adalyn/Ady but I can't convince H of it. Abigail/Aby was me trying to compromise but I'm not sure. Now I'm loving Mia. I really like having a longer "presidential" name with a shortened version for those who know her personally. So those are the names I like. Growing up I always thought I would name a girl "Katherine" and call her "Kate" but now with the whole Duchess thing, it just seems weird.
When Elizabeth Taylor was in the news a lot several years ago my Aunt named her daughter (my cousin) Taylor Elizabeth. I have another cousin named Jack Daniel (Daniel is my grandfather's middle name).
In my family a lot of names are carried over through the generations. My middle name is from one of my grandmother's sisters and is also my mother's middle name. My brother is named after our father, who is named after his father, who is named after his father. My uncle shares a name with his uncle and his son. Many times either the first or middle name is carried over. H shares a middle name with his father. H and I plan to name our kids by carrying over names from our families to honor cherished relatives.
My silly Lily is almost 4.
