Perhaps the most obvious shortening of Georgia will be back to its original masculine form George, a name derived from the Greek geōrgos meaning farmer.
In fact, the name Georgia first became popular in the 18th century most likely in honour of King George I, crowned King of England in 1714. So, it makes sense for it to go back to its root form.
But there are many other variants of the name which friends and relatives may adopt as nicknames for baby Georgia.
