   • 1990, Marjatta Koskenvesa, Lunta, sanoi perhonen, WSOY, →ISBN, page 12:

     Heti syksyllä, kun tyttö oli alkanut käydä puolipäiväosastolla, hänen puhuttelunimensä, Sari Päivikki, oli käytännön syistä vaihtunut Päiviksi ja samantien tietysti myös kotona. Leikkikoulussa oli osunut olemaan kuusi Sari-nimistä.

     As autumn began and the girl started going to the preschool at noon, her nickname had turned from Sari Päivikki to Päivi for practical reasons, and also then at home. The same preschool happened to have six girls named Sari.
