Short forms of names are also interesting and numerous, and some are a bit improbable ... Gus for Constantinos
??? I'd always thought Gus was a short form of Augustus and of Gustavus (the latter sometimes alternatively shortened to "Stav").
Query: what name has the most numerous short-forms in common use? Perhaps Elizabeth would have some ideas for us?
