I LOVE Maisie and Millie in their own right! I also love Maggie, but don't like Margaret. Magnolia?
One of my favorites is Posey for Josephine.
Ellie IS very popular lately amongst people I know with kids as a nickname for Eleanor, Elizabeth, Ella and any names ending in -ella.

: versions that I like, rather than the other

: Currently I love:
: Nell, Nellie (Eleanor? Eliane, Penelope, ??)
: Maisie (Margaret? I had a great aunt
: Margaret who was really cool)
: Mamie (??)
: Hetty or Hattie (I actually love both
: Henrietta and Harriet)
: Bess, Bessie (sick of Elizabeth, though)
: Ellie (might be getting too popular with all
: the Ellas, Isabellas etc).
: Tilly (Matilda is too obvious? Could this be
: short for Teresa, or is that stretching it?
: The only other thing I can think of is
: Clothilde/Clotilda, which I think is awful)
