Mariel Hemingway's daughter is called Dree, which I love - think it's short for Andrea.

Lee (not common as a girls name, but lovely)

I have a one syllable name and I hate not being able to shorten it into a nn, so I'd always go longer and give them a bit of choice.

I'm the opposite to pp. I have a long name that is never ever used except government documents. It's pointless. I am universally known by my one syllable nn.
