Nickname for Isaac

noahsark · July 26, 2012, 4:48pm

(Not expecting, but) Recently loving the name [name]Isaac[/name]. I love the meaning, biblical reference and general feel of the name.
I think [name]Zac[/name] is a lovely NN for [name]Isaac[/name] howeer, considering the NN is based on sound rather that an actual spelling inclusion of the name, I am wondering how you Berries would suggest on spelling the NN.

D’you guys thinkit’d be better:
[name]Zac[/name], [name]Zach[/name], [name]Zak[/name] or any more suggestions.

(P.S. am not willing to spelling [name]Isaac[/name] any other way. I just don’t like the look of Izac or any of the others.

I knew a little boy [name]Isaac[/name] that went by [name]Ike[/name] or [name]Ikie[/name].

I like [name]Isaac[/name] in its entirety…however I much prefer [name]Zac[/name]/k to [name]Ike[/name].

We are considering naming our baby [name]Isaac[/name] and we will definitely call him [name]Ike[/name] if we do.

[name]Isaac[/name] is two syllables and does not need a nickname. [name]Ike[/name] and [name]Zac[/name] work, though.

[name]LOVE[/name] [name]Isaac[/name]! I would use just the full [name]Isaac[/name], I don’t really think it needs a nn, but I do prefer [name]Zach[/name] to [name]Ike[/name]. Since it’s not really based on the spelling of the name (unless you just spelled it Saac, which sort of doesn’t make sense, haha), I would just spell it however you like it best. [name]Zach[/name] seems most classic (and I would think it’d be the easiest to get spelled right, too) to me.

I have a brother [name]Isaac[/name] nn [name]Ike[/name] that’s all I can really think of.

[name]Ike[/name] is my favourite nickname for [name]Isaac[/name]. I don’t like a hard “[name]Zack[/name]” pronunciation of [name]Isaac[/name] anyway.

[name]Isaac[/name] is our top contender right now… I think it is short enough on its own but [name]Ike[/name], [name]Zeke[/name] and [name]Ziggy[/name] are all possible nns besides [name]Zac[/name]

There’s also Ize, Ise or Isy.
