Nicknames for Arizona : Zuzu, Air, Aira, Arza, Ariza, Airy ... which one is your fave?

Hey everyone,

For personal reasons, I am super drawn to the name Arizona for a daughter and am loving all the nicknames I find with it - but would love your thoughts and opinions on the different nicknames and their different energies they give - and also all the different origins and styles I found in the nicknames (Ara is armenian, Arza hebrew for example, or Air is a noun) :slight_smile: I also don’t know if I like the nicknames that play with the “Z” or with the Ar/Ari/Air sound

So for Arizona - do you like

Zuzu
Zuzi
Zo
Zozo
Zoe

Aira
Air
Airy
Ari
Ara
Aura (would this work?)
Arza
Ariza

And also super welcome to any other ideas or suggestions !

I love the name [name_u]Arizona[/name_u] bc I’m bias tho, lol. [name_f]My[/name_f] personal favorite is [name_u]Ari[/name_u], [name_u]Zoe[/name_u], and Zoni.

[name_u]Arizona[/name_u] sounds really cool! [name_f]My[/name_f] choice for a nickname would be [name_u]Ara[/name_u] or [name_f]Ariza[/name_f] :blush:

From your I like Airy & [name_u]Zoe[/name_u] best. Though my all time favorite nickname for [name_u]Arizona[/name_u] is Rizzo!

[name_u]Arizona[/name_u] has some nice options!

I think my favourites are:

Zo/Zoe - [name_u]Zoe[/name_u] adds something familiar and sweet, [name_u]Zo[/name_u] is fun and sparky

[name_u]Ara[/name_u] - beautiful and bold in a quiet way.

I think I’d consider [name_u]Izzy[/name_u] too! [name_u]Or[/name_u] maybe even [name_f]Annie[/name_f], [name_f]Ana[/name_f], Riri or Rozie

[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite is [name_u]Ari[/name_u] or [name_u]Zo[/name_u]!

Some others could be Noni, [name_u]Zia[/name_u], [name_f]Ria[/name_f], [name_u]Ray[/name_u], [name_u]Noa[/name_u] or [name_f]Zari[/name_f]

[name_f]Zuzu[/name_f]! I love [name_f]Zuzu[/name_f] and it’s such a cool nickname for [name_u]Arizona[/name_u]!

[name_u]Zoe[/name_u] would be my choice! I know a little [name_u]Arizona[/name_u] ‘Zoe’!

I love Zozo and [name_u]Zoe[/name_u]! I think Rizzo could also be stunning for the right little girl.

[name_f]Nina[/name_f], [name_f]Arina[/name_f], [name_u]Ari[/name_u], [name_f]Anna[/name_f], maybe even Anni(e) come the most natural and intuitive

Im kind of obsessed with Airy - because I always loved the nn [name_f]Fairy[/name_f] for [name_f]Farrah[/name_f] - but Airy also has this whimsical energy I just love.

[name_u]Ara[/name_u] has something very distinguished and romantic about it - I could imagine a novel with a character [name_u]Ara[/name_u] and I envision her exactly as you say - beautiful and bold but in a quiet/modest way …

I never thought of Rozie but actually that’s so cute because we will have [name_f]Rose[/name_f] be one of the middle names ! So Rozie could be really sweet i love that.

This was my first thought because i think it is so spunky and has this [name_u]French[/name_u] 60s vibe that I love with [name_u]Coco[/name_u], [name_f]Gigi[/name_f], [name_f]Lulu[/name_f] etc - but [name_f]Zuzu[/name_f] is a lot less heard :slight_smile:

I just researched and read that Rizzo actually means curly haired ! Both me and my partner have curly hair - so pretty high chances our children would too … so Rizzo could be absolutely amazing for a girl with ringlets :heart_eyes:

Im also thinking, what do you think of these as nicknames
[name_f]Zazie[/name_f]
[name_u]Aria[/name_u]
[name_f]Zazu[/name_f]

What do think of these? I kind of love Zazie…
