Benne or Benny?

So, I always spell Bennett's nickname, "Benne", and Adam always spells it, "Benny". I feel as though we should officially decide how to spell it, since he is called this 8 out of 10 times every day. I am torn on which way I like it better, so I need your help. Tell me how we should officially spell it, please!

Benne for me - my husband says Benny so that probably doesn't help except that maybe the boys prefer the Y - and so Bennet might too later!!

I vote Benny, because that's how I see it in my head. My best friend growing up was Ben, and we called him Beeny....so that's probably why. And of course, Benny the Bull (does Ethan watch Dora at home?) ;)

I vote Benne because that is the technical shortened version of Bennett since there is no Y in Bennett. :)

I like Benne because it's different....seeing as those I spelled Kaela w/ an e and not a y I'd say to use the E!! Happy New Year!

Emily said...

I say Benny cause he's my son!!!

Emily said...

And its Adam saying this, not Emily

I like Benne...it's just different. I don't agree that a shortened version of your name cannot include any other letters except what's in your name, but that's not why I like it...it's just cooler that way!! Austin agrees. He originally said 'Benney'. So if that doesn't throw you for a loop!

I'd have spelled it Benne. I like original spellings though :)
