Answer 10

First of all, a nickname DOES NOT NEED to match the person's actual name in any way. A nickname is just something you pick to call someone.

So, if you like the name Scarlet but want to use the nickname Lottie - then go ahead and do it.

Now, the actual name that I thought of for Lottie was Loretta. Lottie sounds like something a person named Loretta might use.

Lottie is also a common nickname for Charlotte.

BTW - Lottie as an actual name isn't that bad. I have heard much, much worse.

Maybe this website can give you ideas.
