HelpRe: Nicholas.
in reply to a message by Kitty
I, too, had a boyfriend with that name, and I always called him Nicholas, but nobody else was allowed to call him anything but Nick. This was during my phase of calling everybody by their full first names, which I dropped because my friend Alex(ander) found it irritating and it was too hard to keep track of who OK'ed it.
I think it ages well, sure. I've never liked it at all though. It's one of the few names that I've consistently disliked, along with Christopher, which it is linked to in my mind. I think it has to do with the fact that there are no long, strong vowels. It's just sort of bleeeeeehhhhh. It's like a name made of cottage cheese.
I think Nicola (male) is pretty awesome, and it reminds me of Tesla, who is also pretty awesome. Nikolai is probably myt favourite of the cognates, but I can't say I'm overly fond of any of them sadly. Klaus is super too though.
