[Games] Different Nickname Game!

by Miss Julia Keelan (JiminyKrickit)

We used to play this game a while back, so I thought I'd start it up again!

I will post two names, one male one female, and the next person to post must make up a nickname for each name. However, it must be a nickname not generally associated with that name. Also, tell how the nickname relates to the formal name please! Then, post another two names to keep the chain going!

Example:
Clementine "Mel" - Take the LEM found near the beginning, and reverse it!
Grayson "Ace" - From the 'ays' found in the middle of the name
(Note: Both of those nicknames come up in the database, but it's not required. Anything that strikes your fancy is fine!)

Your turn now!
Linnea
Sebastien

Have fun, everyone!
