	It's not. It's a name in its own right. Or sometimes maybe a nickname / pet name. And no, you're an Empressy - not a Queenie so you can't change your board name! Jill

	I always thought it was a nickname, Hayley but I've since found a Queenie and she was given the name at birth. Sue xx

	I had a relative who was known by an ordinary name and also Queenie. I always assumed that Queenie was the nickname....it wasn't, the ordinary name was in fact the nickname and nothing to do with royalty lol

	I was going to suggest what Ms Grumpy did. ;) I hit one just the other day who was "Queenie Victoria". I just asked FreeBMD for that and got a load of results starting in 1887 -- 1901 was its heyday. Vicky died in January 1901. I think "Queenie" was popular pretty much in honour of the old Queen. Patriotic names were popular around then. Do a search for given name * Mafeking --- June quarter 1900, dozens and dozens. And check * Baden P for people named after Baden Powell: same thing, dozens and dozens, especially 1900. "The relief of Mafeking" was on everybody's lips: remember The Little Princess?

	I googled and found Queenie is a variant of the English name Queena and commonly a " pet " name for Victoria .
