The name Drusilla? I never considered it before because of the Buffy/Angel reference. But, I was looking at it again and I actually like it. Especially the nickname Dru. What do you think?

I DO like the nn Dru but not a big fan of Drusilla...It just isn't a pretty name IMO. Also reminds me of a lady I know named Priscilla who I did not like at all. But if you like it then I think the nn Dru is adorable. :)

I have the same problem! I love Dru as a nickname but I could never use it as a full name. I'm not a fan of Drusilla at all.

Dru sounds like Drew, which I think of as a boy's name. I do not like Drusilla (or whatever it was) at all.

I love the nn Dru {for a girl} or Drew {for a boy}. I'm in the same boat as you though, I don't like any of the full names for them but I don't think I'd want to use Dru/Drew as a full name. I think Drusilla just doesn't sound nice or pretty. If you could find another full name for Dru though, I would definitely use Dru as a nickname.
