Ok..

Let's try to break the ice with your diminutives.
I'm so curious about them and I'm sure that there are some really beautiful diminutives..

Vania

I'm the first? :blush2:

OK then...

Vania - it's obvious :twist:

and the more popular of the diminutives of my name (it's Ivanka btw)
Vanichka (as Lerka calls me) - I love this one, because only my closest friends call me like this :kataus:

Vanche
Vanyusha :wink:

(very cute one)
Vanyushka
Vanyushche - I know it's hard to write them in latin letters, it's not easy to explain how they're pronounced
One of my colleagues calls me Vanessa :blink:

Some people even call me Iva :blink:

and so on...maybe there are others, but I can't remember right now.

Who is the next?

:angel2:

But for some reason, I also like Iva. For me, Iva sounds powerful. Wink

Is it possible to call someone Ivanka -> Anka, because we have this name here. "Anka" is a girl name...it's not a diminutive, but I was thinking if it's possible..

:<33:

Maybe it's possible (we have Anka in Bulgaria), but still no one called me like this! Laughing

Vanichka is my favorite. heart2

I also like Vania, but it's the one we use here.
But I was sure that your real name was Vanessa. Ivanka is so beautiful :stari:

I really love it. It sounds typically Bulgarian in my ears.

Erm...

I could go. Suspect

My diminutives are very few, though. :zy:

Well, at least, the English ones. Laughing

And I would love to hear all of your diminutives, Lerochka! zvet

Mine are...

My full name is Lauren. After Lauren Baicall ( Razz

), but sadly I don't have cat eyes like her. Weep

Laur - erm... as the girls at RG (+ Lerochka Wink

) call me. I like this one. sunny

Laurie - I hate this short form. Rolling Eyes

My friend used to call me it to piss me off. Laughing

It worked to.
Lana - well... this one is obvious. :zy:

Also, there are Lanochka, Lanchik and the other Russian diminutives that Lerka calls me. :lmd:

And that's about it... lol!

Not very exciting, eh? lol!

Now, who's next... :kataus:

Ohhh... those 3 names are especially cute. :wink:

Vanyushche looks very pretty, but... I have no clue how to pronounce it! Embarassed

It's funny how Russian and Bulgarian names have millions of diminutives, when English ones have *at most* one or two. Shocked

Yes. And French ones have less, sometimes any diminutives.
I like Laur very much. It's cute !

So for Marina, erm... Not a lot of diminutives in France.
Manou : only one friend calls me like that, she invents it and I like it very much because this friend is very close to me. But it's more a diminutive for girls whose name is Marine.

But I love my Russian diminutives (I have a lot as my name is obvious in Russia) but nobody calls me like that, except Val of course !
Marinochka : this one is so cute ! I'm sure it's cutier with Val's little russian accent. nice

Marishka : maybe my favorite and I like the diminutive of this diminutive too :kataus:

, Marish.

So, nothing new or exciting.

my favourite.. I love calling you like that! When I write it, I usually repeat it in a loud voice "Laur.. Laur.." :kataus:

Beautiful! :stari:

Marishka is just lovely name :woow:

In Holland it's the same...almost no diminutives only when a name is long likte Dees for Desiree or Sas for Saskia. as far as I know my name hasn't any diminutives...probably only Rach and when my mom is angry she sometimes calls me Rachelle. I'd like to know the Russian/Bulgarian etc. variants!!! :smile:

if they are....

Of course, you love Russian diminutives, ma demi-russe Razz

As I love my french diminutive very much lovely heart

Marinochka and Marishka are the cutest russian diminutives! cheers

and with my accent :kataus:

As for Marish.. I must make it clearer..
So.. In russian language there are two kinds of telling names. The first one - simple. When you apply to a person or when you talk about him (her) and the second kind - only when you apply to a person, when you talk to him (her) Oh my poor head!

I hope you could understand what I want to say. Embarassed

Soo.. Marish is not a diminutive of Marishka, but it is a form of the appeal. You can say "Marishka" as well when you apply to Marina, but if you talk about her with another girl you can't call her Marish, only Marishka. Embarassed

Soo.. Marina. The form of the appeal is Marin (or Marine in french).
Marinochka
Marishka - Marish
Marinka - Marink :stari:

That's it

gros gros bisouuuus pour ma tite demi-russe :<33: :<33: :<33: loveall
