Random information on the term “Female name”:

A hypocorism (/haɪˈpɒkərɪzəm/ hy-POK-ər-iz-əm; from Ancient Greek ὑποκόρισμα (hypokorisma), from ὑποκορίζεσθαι (hypokorizesthai), meaning ‘to use child-talk’[1]), also called a hypocoristicon, is a diminutive form of a name. Hypocorisms include pet names or calling names,[2] often a diminutive or augmentative form of a word or given name when used as a nickname or term of endearment.

Hypocorisms are often generated as:

As evident from the above-mentioned examples, hypocorisms frequently demonstrate (indirectly) a phonological linguistic universal (or tendency) for high-pitched sounds to be used for smaller creatures and objects (here as more “cute” or less imposing names). Higher-pitched sounds are associated with smaller creatures because smaller creatures can only make such high frequency sounds given their smaller larynxes.

Random information on the term “NORMA”:

Norma is a female name. A single instance of the name Norma is recorded 1203, where it perhaps derives from the Latin word norma, meaning “precept”. The name’s general usage seems to be subsequent to the 1831 debut of Vincenzo Bellini’s opera Norma whose librettist Felice Romani borrowed the name (and the plot) from the recent tragedy Norma by Alexandre Soumet. Soumet’s choice of name for his title character may possibly have been influenced by the name of the Germanic mythological Norns.[1][2] More recently Norma has been used as a female equivalent of the name Norman, meaning “Norseman”.[3]

The name has fluctuated in popularity over the past 100 years. It is still a very common name in the United States, but the name was most often given to babies in the 1930s, and is now seldom given.[4]
