Give Me Nicknames!

[ikfly]

I’m the oddball who falls in love with nicknames first then finds full names for them that I like. This is a bit of an unusual thread. I just want a ton of nicknames. No specific theme. I’ll take popular, old fashion, quirky, unusual. ALL NICKNAMES!

My current list
[name_u]Jem[/name_u] - [name_u]James[/name_u] or [name_m]Jeremiah[/name_m]
[name_m]Enzo[/name_m] - [name_m]Henrik[/name_m]
[name_u]Teddy[/name_u]/[name_m]Ned[/name_m] - [name_m]Edmund[/name_m]
[name_f]Basha[/name_f]/[name_u]Sasha[/name_u] - [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]
[name_u]Misha[/name_u] - [name_m]Mikhail[/name_m]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u] - Judicael
[name_u]Tavi[/name_u] - [name_m]Octavian[/name_m]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] - [name_m]Leonidas[/name_m] or [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]
[name_m]Pip[/name_m] - [name_m]Peter[/name_m]
[name_u]Desi[/name_u] - [name_m]Desmond[/name_m]
[name_f]Aly[/name_f] - [name_m]Alaric[/name_m]
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] - [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f]
[name_f]Clio[/name_f] - [name_f]Calliope[/name_f]
[name_f]Callie[/name_f] - [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]
[name_f]Cora[/name_f] - [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f]
[name_f]Ria[/name_f] - [name_f]Regina[/name_f]
[name_f]Nina[/name_f] - [name_f]Antonia[/name_f] or [name_f]Katarine[/name_f]
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u] - No name yet! I don’t like the usual suggestions.
[name_f]Fey[/name_f]/[name_f]Fae[/name_f] - Freyja or [name_f]Phaedra[/name_f]
[name_f]Tess[/name_f] - [name_f]Theresa[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsa[/name_f] - [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] or [name_f]Elisabeta[/name_f]
[name_f]Luna[/name_f] - [name_f]Lucinda[/name_f] or [name_f]Lucienne[/name_f]

I know some of these can be used as full names, but I like them more as nickname. So if you think any full names can be seen as nicknames feel free to suggestion them!

Hmmm… My brain works the other way but I will try…

[name_m]Gregory[/name_m] nn [name_u]Grey[/name_u]
[name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] nn [name_u]Wren[/name_u] or [name_u]Ren[/name_u]
[name_m]Benjamin[/name_m] nn [name_u]Jem[/name_u]
[name_m]Donovan[/name_m] nn [name_u]Van[/name_u]
[name_m]Forest[/name_m] nn [name_m]Fox[/name_m]
[name_m]Vincent[/name_m] nn [name_u]Vinny[/name_u] or [name_m]Vin[/name_m]

This is in the boys forum but you’ve listed both boys and girls so I will list a few girls…

[name_f]Florence[/name_f] nn [name_u]Ren[/name_u]
[name_f]Helena[/name_f] nn [name_f]Leni[/name_f]
[name_f]Isabeau[/name_f] nn [name_u]Beau[/name_u] or Isby
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] nn [name_u]Dell[/name_u] or [name_f]Della[/name_f]

Oh, I love nicknames too! I think it’s because I have a full name with a nickname and I have always loved the options it gave me. I like having a name I use professionally and then one used by friends and family. I am also a huge fan of “homey” one-syllable names used for boys. My current favorite boy name is [name_m]Mack[/name_m] which I would use as a nn for [name_m]Cormac[/name_m]. Second is [name_m]Jed[/name_m] ([name_m]Jedidiah[/name_m]). Here’s a huge list and I’m sure there are plenty of repeats, but I haven’t read all the responses. My favorites are in bold
