Wally

1. A diminutive of the male given names of Waldo, Walter, Wallabee, and Wallace.
   • 2005, Joyce Carol Oates, Mother, Missing, Harper Perennial, page 108:

     "'Mr. Szalla' is my eighty-two-year-old father, Nikki. Please call me 'Wally'."
     "Well. 'Wally'."
     I felt my face burn pleasantly. "Wally" was such a comfortable old-shoe kind of name.
