| 632.1 | A couple of thoughts | STEREO::FAHEL | Amalthea Celebras | Mon Jan 21 1991 14:43 | 6 | 
|  |     I like the name Victoria, and another nickname is Torrie.  Torrie
    Damico doesn't sound all that bad.
    
    Here's just a thought...what are the GRANDMOTHERS' names?
    
    K.C.

    Thanks for the great, great response.  I can't believe I never thought
    or heard of that.  I can't wait to go home and tell my husband.
    
    Unfortunately my grandmother's (who I love very much) name is YOLANDA. 
    No way.  My other grandmother was Susan, but there are 2 Susan Damico's
    already in the immediate family.
    
    Great thinking though.
    
    Thanks again.

|  |     Karen,
    
    My neighbor's niece's name is Victoria and also called Torrie,
    but they spell it "Tory".  I like that name quite a bit also...

    Tory is a cute nickname for Victoria.  But if your husband prefers
    "Victoria", you can possibly use it as a middle name - Jillian Victoria
    for example.

|  | I don't think Jessica or Jillian really go that well with Damico... but
I do think Victoria does (I prefer the spelling Tori for the nickname though,
since it really is an excact substring of the full name).
Other possibilities that I think sound good:
Marissa (Mari for short)
Monica
Valerie
Laura
Denise
Dana
Michelle
Just my opinion,

| 632.6 | what's wrong with Vicki Damico? | TIPTOE::STOLICNY |  | Thu Jan 24 1991 13:34 | 11 | 
|  |     
    Hmm....personally, I think Vicki Damico sounds pretty good!   Am I 
    the only one?    I also want to add Rae as a suggestion for a 
    middle name with Victoria.   Victoria Rae Damico....nice, huh?  
    
    I agree with .5 that Jessica and Jillian don't go too well with 
    Damico and like the suggestions of Marissa, Monica, and Laura.
    Alyssa would be nice too!
    
    Good luck,
    Carol

|  |     I also like Victoria Damico very much and Vici Damico sounds nice to
    me.  I prefer Vici spelt Vici vs. Vicki since there isn't a K in the name 
    tobegin with.  Tori is also pretty.  But, if your husband really likes
    the sound of Victoria - then you should try to call her that as often
    as possible.  Tori is a completly different name and her "real" name 
    could get lost in it.  That doesn't seem to happen as often when the 
    1st part of the name is used occasionally as a nick name, but more so 
    when the 2nd half is used.  My name is Christina and my parents called 
    me Tina - growing up, most people thought Tina was my name:   Now
    people call me Christina and occasionally Tina.  If it were Chris -
    then everyone would say, "is your full name Christine, Christina,
    Cristen, Cristal...., but with Tina - that was it - everyone thought 
    that was my full name...  do you know what I mean.  So, if "Dad" likes 
    Victoria - then try to use it ofen enough and what ever nickname you 
    choose once in a while. 
    
    Christina 
    
    Other suggestions are:
    
    Diana Damico
    Talia Damico

|  |     Thank you for your opinion.  If we do decide to name her Victoria I
    think we will probably stress VICTORIA as much as possibly vs. a nick
    name.  Once she starts school and gets older she can decide herself
    what she wants to be called by friends.
    
    Thanks again

|  |     I was going to suggest using both your grandmothers names but the more
    I said it the worst it sounded. I will mention that my sister in law
    carries the name Yolanda Inez. We call her Yoli though. Personally I
    like Victoria the best. And if you always call her that and make sure
    to get everyone else in the habit, it will stick. A friend at church
    has two daughters, Elizabeth and Victoria, and that is what they are
    called... no nicknames at all. They are both beautiful names. 
    
    Congratulations and Good Luck!!
