Hey everyone! So, in the Sci-fi book I’m writing, the main character, [name_f]Kimi[/name_f] Kemp, must get a nickname. She joined a group where everyone has these wacko nicknames like, Stoic, Mishap, [name_m]Reb[/name_m], Boom, so on. It could just be something random that sounds cool, or a nickname to [name_f]Kimi[/name_f], her actual name. Her personality is very shy, and she looks up to loud Boom (who loves explosives, hence the name) and logical [name_m]Skip[/name_m] (or [name_f]Iris[/name_f] [name_m]Skipper[/name_m]-[name_f]Anne[/name_f] [name_u]Riley[/name_u], which is her birth name. Her nickname comes from her middle name). So, I hope this isn’t too confusing. Any ideas anyone?
From her name, her nickname could be [name_u]Kay[/name_u], Kaykay or [name_u]Kim[/name_u].
From her character her nickname could be a shy animal, like [name_f]Sparrow[/name_f], [name_u]Wren[/name_u], Deer, or just Shy.
Or her nickname could come from her looks, like Straw or Hay if she has a lot of blonde hair, [name_f]Ginger[/name_f] for red hair, [name_u]Sky[/name_u] for very blue eyes, so on.
Hello, fellow Sci-fi fan!
I agree with wandarine with the names from her name: [name_u]Kay[/name_u], Kaykay, [name_u]Kim[/name_u]. Is it pronounced [name_f]Ki[/name_f]-me or kee-me? - I’ve heard it both ways. If it’s keem-me, you could go with Key or something like that.
As for from her character, you could go with [name_f]Willow[/name_f], [name_f]Whisper[/name_f], [name_f]Air/name_f, Tranq (as in tranquil), [name_u]Rain[/name_u] (or [name_f]Rayne[/name_f]), or [name_u]Cloud[/name_u].
Looks could be from anything: [name_f]Ginger[/name_f], [name_u]Red[/name_u], [name_m]Night[/name_m], (based on hair color), [name_u]Sky[/name_u], Dirt (or [name_f]Earth[/name_f] to be less offensive), [name_u]Leaf[/name_u] (based on eye color), or something completely different.
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!
