I didn't like the name Abigail, but the nickname Abby is adorable. The spelling Abbey doesn't make it sound like a nickname either. Abigail, called Abby, is my mom's favorite name too, and I want to incorperate her into my daughter's name. Abbey Lynn or Abbey KateLynn would be adorable. (my mom's middle name is Lynn)
