Does anyone know of any existing dictionaries with personal names and common alias or nicknames for them?
I want to make sure I don't end up recreating the wheel.
example.... CHRIS = CHRISTOPHER BOB = ROBERT WILL = WILLIAM BILL = WILLIAM

The Social Security Admin keeps a large database of given names, and I'd say there's a good chance that among the population kids get the nickname at least a good percentage of the time.
Some resources I've found:

Perfect! Thanks! Jarrod
