Friends-- The Mormons have a list of names showing proper names and some of their nicknames. For example I found that my Martha Hoyt of early 1800's was also named Patty and could have also been named Patsy. I saw all of this at a Mormon Library in Los Angeles some 10 or 15 years ago, but cannot remember how to find it.
