Q&A for How to Come Up with a Nickname

What an amazing name! You might use the last syllable of your first name and go by "Ti" (or "T/Tee"). You may also combine the final syllable of your first name with the first syllable of your last name and come up with "Tishe." Or, you can refer to yourself by the final two syllables of your last name, "Diya." Interestingly, "Diya" has Indian origins and is Hindi for "light" or "glow." If you do decide on a nickname, report back and let us know what you chose!

Since "Belle" or "Bella" are feminine nicknames for "Isabella," you may wish to try "Is," "Isa," "Izzy," "Len," or "Lee." You can even go with "Sabe," "Sable," "El," or "Z." Fun trivia—"Isa" is the name of a character in the popular video game franchise, "Kingdom Hearts."

You could use Cally, Calee, Kale, Callae, Cae, Lea, Leah, Leela, Lla, Cal, or any other creative nickname that you could think of.

"Rainy"? Or "Raynie" if you don't like the connotation of a rainy day. Or keep it simple with "Rey."

Cammie, Cam, Ronnie, Ron, you can also rearrange the letters and go with something like Mac, or even do something funny like Chameleon.

Elle, Ellie, Ellis, Ella, Elsa, Ell, Else, E, Lise, Liss. There are many possibilities.

I think you need to add an special name that just references you. That way, you have a most unique name. Other than that, it's pretty good.

Split your name into different nicknames, such as Alli, Liyah, and AI. Choose the one you like best.

Low, Lokie, Loags, Logis, Logie; anything that sounds like your name will do as long as you like it.

Ju-Ju, Jules, Ju, Li, Lian or even just J.

Here are some that spring to mind: Zany, Ziny, Fi-Fi, and Fina.

Maybe try combining the two names, and see what you get. Or, you could just choose your middle name or last name to make into a nickname.

Erin, Remi, Marin, Nina, Rea, Reina, and Gari are some nicknames for Neringa.

You could go always go with your first and middle initial. For example, if your middle name is James, you could go by P.J. However, I do not recommend doing this if your middle name also starts with a "P."

I know a girl name Hannah and she goes by Anna. There's Haney or Nay if you want a cuter sounding name.

How about Nan, Anna, Ann, or Annie?

Try Sofe or Sina or Fina or something cute like Soapy.

You could use Em, Emi, Emmy, Mily, or even just E.

You can use Lana, Polene, Polly, Paula, Paul, Pole, Popo, Poa, or anything else that you might come up with. The possibilities are endless!

Viv, Vivi, Vana, Ana, Anne, Annie, V. The possibilities are endless; think of as many as you can.

Elle, Ellie, Elle, Alae, Al, La.

Try Len or Lenen if you wish to exclude the H. If you want to include the H, try something like Lehn or Lhen. A more sophisticated nickname could be Helly. Consider including your middle and/or last name as well.

Izzy is probably the best nickname for you, but you could also use your middle name or ask your friends for advice.

You could use Bryer, Bri, Bry, Anna, Ann, An, Anne, or Annie. Just think of shortened versions of your name.

Combine letters from your first, middle and last name; incorporate a unique talent; and search the internet once you have your idea to make sure it isn't already taken.

You can use Anne, Rea, or Annie. You could also go by the initials of your first and middle name, or just your first initial ("A").

Izzy, Bella, Lizzy, I've heard Bell before. Whatever you like best is what you should go with.

I like Fae! It can mean fairy - which is magical like faith can be!

Some nicknames for Marika are: Ari, Mia, Rika, Aria, Maria, and Mari. Some boy nicknames for Marika are Erik and Rami.

Ben, B, Wild, anything you do/use/wear.
