Tips
- Need help deciding on a nickname for your friend or loved one? Remember to consider the nature of your relationship and how close you are. For example, if you're really close, a friend is more likely to understand (and enjoy) a teasing nickname—whereas a casual friend might not.Thanks
- Try tailoring the nickname to the other person's interests. What are their favorite hobbies, foods, movies, or sports? A nickname based on the things they love most will feel more personal—and prove you really know them!Thanks
- Just remember to stop using a nickname if it's clear they don't like it. And try not to take it personally; if they don't like the nickname, come up with something else (or ask them what they'd like to be called).Thanks
