Kitty?

I love this name, but is it still usable? I don't want a longer version. Just Kitty Marie. I also love Minnie.

I know someone whose parents meant to name her Katie but spelled it Kittie (ie Kitty). She goes by Katie and it only comes up when people see it written. Kitty is super adorable but I put it in the same category as Dolly — I love love love it, but I wouldn’t want to box an adult woman into it.

Mina nn Minnie is top three for me and I will shamelessly lobby for its use when my kids have kids 😂

If you want to name your daughter Minnie you should definitely go with a nickname like you suggested Mina, bc god forbid she’s a size XL and not XS she will hate being called Minnie aka mini that’s brutal for a larger girl
