Nickname Throw-Down: Carolina v. Caroline

[dwiggin3]

To finally end the battle, who gets to keep the nickname "Caro"?

 

[Mafke]

Can't we all just get along?

Anyway, my proposed solution would come from a nickname that Zhang apparently has on Chinese boards, OO, combine that with her first initial and you get .... (wait for it) Coo. Works for me.

this is what I get for being lazy :sheesh:

I read on another board that her name (child-name) in Chinese is Yuan-Yuan, which means "round-round." Do you think that's where it comes from?

Won't Zhang be changing her name to "Cara" anyway? (Tara, Sarah ...)

caro = italian adjective "dear" for boys (masculine adjective)
cara = italian adjective "dear" for girls (feminine adjective)

lol.Cara

I think CaroK could be a good compromise (in non-italians forums and especially in american forums, since we'll keep on calling her Caro with no doubt )

We need an option for letting them both use it
