bewise answered Saturday April 16 2011, 12:24 am: I agree with NoOneImportant's advice.
I would like to add that not all people suit or need nicknames, and giving a person one unnaturally may be a bit wierd.
Different nicknames that some of my friends have relate directly to their personalities, hobbies, interests or physical looks.
eg. Elmo, for a person who laughs lots and who is cute and small
Spunky Dunky, this is for a guy name Duncan. That's where we got the Dunky from. Spunky rhymes with Dunky, so it got added in.
Bob, for a girl who likes spongebob squarepants cartoon
Check that your friend likes nicknames as some people don't. Also check that they like the one you think is cool, because they could be offended by it, but not want to say. [ bewise's advice column | Ask bewise A Question ]
NoOneImportant answered Tuesday April 12 2011, 11:57 am: I feel that if you want to give someone close to you a nickname it should be one that you come up with, because then it's special. I can't give you a nickname nor can anyone else, but we can give you ideas on how to choose one. In order to come up with a nickname, think about your boyfriend.
What type of characteristics stand out? What's his personality like? What does he enjoy most? (Pirates? Vampires? Ghosts? Werewolves? things like that) once you've thought of all those, trying reading a bit into them as well. Perhaps you will get your inspiration from his hobbies/likes. A nickname is something you should come up with yourself, this way it's more special. [ NoOneImportant's advice column | Ask NoOneImportant A Question ]
