Matty as a girls name?

I love the name alone but would also have loved to use Matilda, its been a favourite since i was young but now have a little 3yo cousin with that name (she doesnt have a nickname). my dad's name is Matthew so it would honour him too. my parents always told me that it would have been my name if I had been born a boy! does it work as a full name for a girl?

I don’t mind it as I love a cute gender neutral name however, I would assume it’s a nickname until corrected. Mattie reads a little more like a full name to me.

It’s becoming way more popular to have “nicknames” as full names! Like my mom’s name is Toni, not Antoinette, or how Theo is more popular than Theodore now. I do agree that Mattie might be more of an indicator that’s her full name but either way you spell it, super cute!

I love it, it’s unique!

Love it! We have a Teddy & that’s her full name 😊

Mattie would be better for full given name. Lovely name with meaning for you
