Michael (Mick) - Malcolm (?)

jrossful · April 19, 2022, 3:50pm

We just named our third child Malcolm and really need help with an ‘M’ nickname for him. His older brother is Michael and goes by Mick; so Mac for our Malcolm doesn’t really work. We were thinking of Mags for him but aren’t decided on that. We would love feedback and help please!

In my opinion Mick and Mac are different enough! Mal works too!! Congrats btw!!!

If [name_m]Mac[/name_m] really doesn’t work for you, and since you’re thinking of using [name_f]Mags[/name_f], how about [name_u]Max[/name_u]?

Malcs, [name_f]Mally[/name_f], Mol, [name_u]Mal[/name_u]

[name_m]Colm[/name_m] is lovely.

[name_u]Mal[/name_u]!

I think I would opt for [name_u]Max[/name_u] or [name_u]Mal[/name_u]

I think that adding an -s to [name_m]Mac[/name_m] might make it feel different enough to [name_m]Mick[/name_m] (and sound similar to your [name_f]Mags[/name_f] and be a little more intuitive with the C) – Macs.
