Re: Short, Older nicknames
in reply to a message by LiaMaria
Chip = I've met one but I think it's a little cheesy
Skip = Okay but Skipper is better
Kit = sounds very feminine, at least where I live
Mack = Nah, sounds like an old man or an old dog. Also isn't "mack" a verb, like "to kiss awkwardly / drunkenly" or something? Mac is slightly better but I still think of an old man or an old animal.
Kip = Okay. I know one but it's not short for anything.
Nat = Maybe. Usually short for Natalie, Natasha, etc where I live. A boy that has a name that could be shortened to Nat would probably pick Nate, which I like better anyway. Nat also sounds like gnat.
Rock = Sure
Jock = Sounds like a dog
Mick = Meh, Mike is better. Although I don't particularly like either
