Re: What could be a great first name for the nickname "Pops"?
My grandfather was often called Pops, and his name was Donald. I think it's one of those nicknames, like Gidget, Spike, and Bud, that doesn't need to be closely related to the given, proper name.
In all honesty, I mostly think of Pops as a cute way to say Dad or Grand-dad, so I don't really like it as a nickname.
