I need a place name which can be a girl's (stupid) name and can be shortened to a more familiar name by adding a 'y'.
There are identical twins in my book who currently go by the names of Addy and Venny (short for Adelaide and Venice), but I also have an Andy in the book so I need to replace Addy with something else as it's too similar.
I thought maybe Monaco - Monny, but I'm sure there's probably something better.
Any suggestions?

Milan/Milly
Madrid/maddie
Tennessee - Tenny? (but maybe Tenny and Venny might be too similar, even for twins!)
Munich/Mooney
Melbourne/Melly
Or you could change Andy...
No, I definitely can't change Andy! It has too much significance.
Paris/Parry
Georgia/Georgie
Paris - Parry
Annaheim - Annie
Betws y coed - Betsy (in honour of the day)
Langollen - Lanky
Verona - Ronnie/Vonnie
Florence - Florry (keeping to the Italian theme of Venice)
Helsinki - Helly
Lusaka - Lusy
