When we named our daughter Vedika, thesis was that this name is well meaning, cute, reasonably unique, short, foreigner-pronunciation-friendly and feel-good. Only concern that this name starts from letter later in alphabets was deemed immaterial and insignificant.
We also nick-named her Vidhi, particularly because we liked this name too and couldn't just choose one between the two, it's short enough too, and because we thought Vidhi is too cute a name and more applicable for a child but not possibly for an adult. In our mind, CEO Vedika Gupta sounded more professional than CEO Vidhi Gupta.
Of course, her pet name of Vidhi has evolved to Vidhu and even Veedoo. Such is life!
