Is abby a strong enough name to stand on its own?

I love the name Abby, but I really dislike Abigail, it's just not at all my taste,


so do you think Abby is strong enough to be a first name?








I really like Abby Rae, What do you think?|||I think Abby is strong enough to stand on its own. My best friend's dad wanted to name her just Abby. However if its just Abigail you dont like, here are some suggestions for names that can be shortened to Abby, if youre interested:


Abrienne


Abrianna


Abrielle


Abiliana (ah bil ee AH nah)


Abilena


Abilene


Abellana


Abrille (ah BREEL)


They are somewhat unusual names, but some of them are really cute ! Good luck !|||NO, it is way too childish on its own. It will not age well and when she is older she might want to have a longer name. If you don't like Abigail, what about Gabrielle/Gabriella and you can call her Abby? What about Gabrielle Faye or Gabriella Faye? I recommend Faye instead because it sounds classier.|||I agree with you! Abigail isn't my taste either but I love Abby... but here is what I think makes it seem more like a first name!





Spell it Abbey :) Like Abbey Road :P I think it looks more like a first name and cooler and just nicer in general!





Abbey Rae is beautiful :)|||I know several people that are "just" Abby (some spelt Abby, Abbie, Abbey). It definitely can, so if that's what you love then go for it.





Abby Rae sounds ok, I feel like it needs a longer middle name though.|||I love Abby on it's own! I do think it's strong enough, and far prettier than Abigail. I'm, going to be honest with you and tell you I hate Rae, though, sorry. I just don't find it cute or pretty.|||Abby Rae is adorable! But since Abby is such a common name, I would change the spelling to Abbi, Abbey, or Abbie.|||Of course, it's a beautiful and name ! My cousin's name is Abby, Abby Rose.. :)|||Yeah I think it can, but it can be short for Gabrielle or Gabriella if you like those|||It's becoming a pretty common name. So she would blend in. Maybe a unique name.|||I would pick a longer middle name but abby can absolutely stand on its own. Im not a fan of abigail either|||Its a good first name most people with that first name end up going by Abby|||Abby Rae is awesome! Rae is my middle name %26amp; I love it!|||Yes it is as strong as Lizzie.|||I think Abby could be a good first name.|||No. It's childish.|||Rae would be a better choice Abby is pretty common.|||Abby is cute but not with rae
