'Frederick' is the more common spelling of the name, so could you accept that as well as the version with no e? Also, Rick is more often Richard, and Bert can be many things as well as Gilbert - Bertram, Robert, Albert, etc. Good quiz though.

FarmerBob, this was a fun little quick quiz. I enjoyed it. I don't normally suggest adding anything, but since you asked.....Hank can be one of the tricky nicknames. It's a nickname for Henry. Also, perhaps Barney might be a bit harder. I've heard it for Barnard, and also for Bernard. :)

The header should probably say "Can you name the full names for the common male nicknames?" Great quiz!
