I'm thinking of starting a timeline that begins at about the time of the Georgia Goldrush - say 1832.

One of my chief protagonists would be named Charles - but would Americans of that era call him "Chuck"?

"Chuck" still isn't common in England now, so it's hard for me to judge - and I've not been able to find anything useful on the net.

Can anyone on the west side of the Atlantic advise me on this one please?
