Nicknames for Abigail?

I dislike the nickname abby.

Don't give me stupid things like abster, or ab.

I need a real nickname that's better than abby but not TOO stretchy.

DON"T say gail.

If you could suggest anything, thanks :) I've heard of some abigails going by aila, (abigAIL), but is there anything else? And do you like that one?

thanks :)

    Just call her Abigail or give her another name and if this is your name go by your middle name.

    My actual first name is Abigail, I hate it so much I no longer use it, but I was always called Abbey or Abz, if you don't like the nicknames, don't inflict it on your child.

    If it's your name, go by your middle.

    Bailey? It's a stretchy, but you're taking the b from the beginning of the name to the -ail and just adding the -y sound, which is pretty common in nicknames.

    Iggy probably sounds really stupid, but it popped into my head, so I thought I'd share it. Aila is okay.

    There's really only two nicknames that work for Abigail...

    Abi, and Gail. Duh.

    If you want to go weird and creative, I guess you could use Gia or Lib, from just randomly stealing letters.
