    Quick question about a term of endearment

    Hi all,

    Is the nickname "Solnyshko" appropriate for a girl, or would it become "Solnyshka?" I know basically nothing about Russian, so any help is welcome.

    Thanks so much!

    "Solnyshko" for a girl would do fine.
    Словом можно обидеть. Словарём - убить.

    Какая разница? Ласковые обращения могут относиться и к тем, и к другим.
