I'd say Addy.  But it could be either way.

I'd spell it Addie.

I'd be inclined to spell it Addie.

Addi or Addie, it would only be Addy if her name were spelled Addyson

Addie is the only way I've ever seen it.For Addy, wouldn't it have to be Addyson?

Addy.

That's my reasoning, V & L.  There's no 'y' in her name, so I'm going with the 'ie'.  Addi just feels like it's unfinished.  I feel like it needs that 'e'.BTW, we debated this waaay more than necessary.

The boy Addison I know is Addy. The girl Addison is Addie. The no "y" argument is weird to me, does that mean all of the Jennys in the world are wrong because they should be Jennis?

tawillers

Welp, that's one example I hadn't thought of, L.  Although one Jennifer I know does go by Jenni, and it looks weird to me, too.

I've always spelled it Addy when I get the Addison we have at daycare. I don't usually think of "ie" as a go to for anything but Katie or Carrie, frankly.
