Unique boy names with short, cool nicknames?

Boy Names

In my quest for the perfect sibling name for [name_f]Ariana[/name_f] nn [name_u]Ari[/name_u], and [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] nn [name_u]Max[/name_u], I want a short, spunky free-standing nickname for daily use that is actually a real name with a longer, more formal name to go with it.

Here are some of my ideas to start:

[name_u]Kai[/name_u] - [name_m]Malachi[/name_m], [name_m]Kaiden[/name_m], [name_m]Kaius[/name_m],
[name_m]Luke[/name_m] - [name_m]Lucian[/name_m], [name_m]Lucius[/name_m], [name_m]Lucio[/name_m],
[name_m]Leo[/name_m] - [name_m]Aurelio[/name_m], [name_m]Emilio[/name_m],
[name_u]Ash[/name_u] - [name_u]Asher[/name_u], [name_u]Ashton[/name_u]
[name_m]Ian[/name_m] - [name_m]Caspian[/name_m], [name_m]Valerian[/name_m],
[name_u]Gus[/name_u] - [name_m]Augustus[/name_m], [name_m]Gustav[/name_m]
[name_u]Nick[/name_u] - [name_m]Nikolai[/name_m], [name_m]Nicholas[/name_m], [name_u]Phoenix[/name_u]
[name_u]Eli[/name_u] - [name_u]Elias[/name_u], [name_m]Elijah[/name_m],
[name_m]Ty[/name_m] - [name_u]Tyler[/name_u], [name_m]Tiberius[/name_m]
[name_u]Remy[/name_u] - [name_u]Remington[/name_u]
