My husband and I are expecting a boy in the coming months and have recently started liking [name_u]Ari[/name_u]. While we know it is a name in itself, we are curious how many names we could use it as a nickname for. [name_m]Aristotle[/name_m] is the only one I can think of…any suggestions from all you brilliant berries out there?
You could use it as a nn for almost any name that has a strong ‘ar’ sound in it, like…
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m]
[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]
[name_m]Alastair[/name_m]
[name_u]Amari[/name_u]
[name_m]Archer[/name_m]
[name_u]Arden[/name_u]
[name_m]Arrio[/name_m]
[name_m]Artemio[/name_m]
[name_u]Ari[/name_u] is a really wonderful name on its own. I don’t really want to see it become a popular nn for other boys’ names. (Disclaimer: I love it as a nn for a girl since it can’t be used on its own).
[name_m]Arturo[/name_m]
[name_u]Ariel[/name_u]
[name_m]Aryeh[/name_m]
R.E. initials would give you the [name_u]Ari[/name_u] sound. [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] [name_u]Emmett[/name_u]? [name_m]Roland[/name_m] [name_m]Ezra[/name_m]? Possibilities there go on forever.
