    Forgive me for the sort-of long read, but this is some kind of "game" I'm letting you guys and gals on.

    A month ago I told my mother I want a new name. I love the name "Simon" but she says she will only accept a name that can be given a nickname. That kind of angered me, but I think she should have a say, as my mother.

    I made a game out of choosing my name, though it's not really a fun one, but I need you people's opinions and suggestions. So here are the rules:

    1. It has to be easy to give it a nickname.
    2. It must sound good in English and in French (I live a bilingual life).
    3. It must be a name someone from Canada might be called (so nothing too foreign-sounding).

    So, yeah. I already have Gabriel and Rafael in my options, so please don't waste time suggesting those.

    If you're wondering about the foreign name part: My parents are pure French Canadians and would not have named me something like "Takeshi".

    Thank you in advance, my friends. ^_^

    I don't know why but I thought of the name Sydney and then nick name Syd. or Kaleb and the name Kal or Kale.

    both random, but what the heck. Good luck.

    I know someone named Evan whose mother calls him "Ev," that might work.
