    Is that as in short for Solomon? It usually is.

    I asked the same, but this little one's just called Sol. I don't usually like abbreviated names, but I really liked this one for some reason when I was reminded of it.

    If I had been a boy mum would have called me Zebedee! No really, I was mortified when I found that out but I actually quite like it now. If I ever have kids I'd call my boy Leighton don't have a girls name though.

    My favourite is Isaac, but then it would be it's my twentyfour year old only son's.
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    I have the boring surname Smith and live in Liverpool where everyones names seems to be shortened so I have

    Aaron James (fathers middle name)
    Toby John (my dads middle name)
    Leo Francis (no idea how we came up with this one)

    First names cant get shortened and with our surname seem to work out ok my name is one of the third most common names in the country and hate that.

    susan

    Azza or AJ and Tobes or TJ and Leon (ok Leo cant be shortened but it will be lengthened most probably)
    Love is the answer. At least for most of the questions in my heart,
    Like why are we here? And where do we go?And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy,And sometimes life can be deceiving,
    I'll tell you one thing, its always better when we're together

    I love the name Bevan but my OH's surname begins with a J, don't think I want a son with those initials! A lot of his family have been given nicknames as well due to the J surname - they have AJ, DJ, JJ & TJ so would try to avoid any of these letters as well!

    My middle son is Bevan :D .. his initials are BAG..

    PJ needs to be avoided too.. MJ like on Spiderman.. you may run out of letters lol.. Actually.. I have just decided I would pick he same iniial as one of the others.. they cannot use the same for 2 family members or noone will ever know who they are talking about.. So going to A, D, J or T would work probably!
