Kim as a nickname for Kimberly is fairly straightforward, but Polly as a nickname for Mary and Peggy as a nickname for Margaret have tripped up many researchers. Sometimes nicknames were formed by adding a y or ey to the end of a name or part of a name - i.e. Johnny for John or Penny for Penelope..
Necie (NEE-see) is a cute nickname for Denise. -- VictoriaCalledTori 3/13/2007. Also the name of one of my best friends and I love it! It's classic and has a nice meaning. -- renee06 5/10/2007. There are a few spellings of this name, but I like one particular version - Denyse - because it looks rather unique. I mean, Denise seems quite overused to me because I know quite a few people called Denise.
