We talked about Astor or Story as potential nicknames. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2386054 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 18:13:53 +0000 birdofafeather 2386054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend spells it alister and I've always thought that was normal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385915 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 15:36:23 +0000 MoonMoon 2385915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Alastair. How about Ally for a nickname, like Alfie for Alfred or Albie for Albert? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385909 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 15:32:10 +0000 Pancakes 2385909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Alistair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385904 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 15:29:57 +0000 creativemomma15 2385904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: I like that :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385847 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 15:05:39 +0000 gentlelunette 2385847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think Allister is more typical to a surname. Well, at least that's my association, because my mom's maiden name is McAllister. For a first name, I'd agree that Alastair is probably more traditional. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385815 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 14:43:37 +0000 sslm 2385815@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@creativemomma15: not totally! My sister just suggested Ace and I think that's cute :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385808 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 14:39:42 +0000 creativemomma15 2385808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sslm: Ah I see... Well, my brother grew up with a nickname totally unrelated to his name that I came up with once I was talking... Are you against the idea of a "random" nickname? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385788 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 14:31:41 +0000 sslm 2385788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sera_87: @creativemomma15: It's not so much that I want a nickname, it's more that my family loves nicknames and I'd like an option that I don't hate haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385765 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 14:23:01 +0000 creativemomma15 2385765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I vote Alastair :) but I'm biased since that's a family members name. I like the stair ending because that's how we pronounce his name (not Al-a-stir) I also don't think it needs a nickname </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385714 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 14:04:02 +0000 sera_87 2385714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Alistair. </p> <p>And it's such an awesome name it doesn't need nicknames :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385689 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 13:50:24 +0000 Adira 2385689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would've spelt it Aleister, but only because it was the name of a character on a show I watch and that's how they spell it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385677 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 13:39:58 +0000 sslm 2385677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ree723: haha Good to know, I don't want to be "you-nique" at all!!!</p> <p>Second part of question - nicknames for this besides Al? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385675 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 13:39:16 +0000 Ree723 2385675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Alastair or Alistair - the first spelling you listed is a bit more of a 'you-nique' spelling I think. And it makes me think of an alligator! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/allister-alastair#post-2385673 Fri, 11 Dec 2015 13:37:08 +0000 sslm 2385673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How do you spell this name? There are so many spellings out there. Just wondering what's most common/popular. </p>
