I never thought about using Nyx for names in which Nikki could be short for, that’s actually really cool! I’m semi-partial to Nikki because it’s my mom’s nickname, but using Nyx would be a cool way to honor her without being so exact I think.

I like Annika, Nicole & Nicolette for Nikki / Nyx nicknames. I think I would use Annika Cecilia or Annika Jane “Nyx” for now.

I like Nike (NEE-kee), the Greek name.

---

I dislike Nikki, it's 70s/80s/90s dated, informal and harsh.

---

Nikolina is sort of cute and so is Coline.

---

Nyx is okay but it's harsh and sounds like the German "nix" being slang for "nothing".

---

Nyx Galatea

Nikki Annabel

Reminds me of Nikki Maxwell. (If you know you know) The name is decent but nothing big or special.

Apart from Nicole and Veronica and simply Nika (Nike), there are Nicandra, Nicanora (Nikanora), Nicola and Nicoline.

Nicandra Genevieve
Nicanora Elise
Nicoline Marie
Véronique Élodie
Nikki Claire
Nicola Frances
Nicole Sylvie

Nicola is my favorite. But also Dominika is nice.
I wouldn't actually use Nikki for a kid, but making up combos ...
Nikki Amaryllis, Nikki Ramona?

I know a Nicola called Nicky, who's English. I didn't particularly like the name until I met her. I just liked Nick for Nicholas.
The spelling Nikki reminds me too strongly of Nikki Sixx (Motley Crue) and seems almost funny to me because of that. Also seems seventies-ish, like Traci. I like Vikki though ... I guess Nikki is okay. I'd just rather it were Nicky, Nicki, or Niki.
I don't like Nyx at all.

Nicole nn Nicky or Nicki

None and can just think of Nicole and its variants. Prefer Nikki.
