My mum suggested the name Sebastian for my June baby which I like but I’m assuming he’d always be called Seb which I don’t personally like. Are there other nicknames for Sebastian? Im drawing a blank! ---

I’ve heard Bash as a nn for [name\_m]Sebastian[/name\_m]. How would you be pronouncing it? In the UK it’s generally se-bas-tee-un. [name\_f]My[/name\_f] friend calls her child with this name [name\_m]Seb[/name\_m] and Sebby. There’s also the diminutive [name\_m]Bastian[/name\_m]. ---

Sebastian is my fave boys name - which I unfortunately (but fortunately) pitched to my older sister so it’s my oldest nephew’s name. Nicknames he gets: Seb, Sebby/Sebi, Bash and Bashy. My cousin’s kid called Sebastian is called Bass and Bassy. Bastian is a great (and v handsome) nickname too but would likely be shortened again. They’re both “Se-bastee-uhn” but some people throw Y in there “Yun” or even a “Gin”. ---
