Unusual Nickname Game
This was once played on another board; I provide two names, and the person who replies thinks of an unusual nickname for each name. Then they post two more names, and the person who replies thinks of two nicknames for those, etc. etc. The more unusual the nicknames the better, but they should be somehow related to the name, for example:Lara "Raider" (because of Lara Croft in Tomb Raider)
Julian "Lee" (because of the middle syllable, and it's less common that "Jules" as a NN for this name)Here are the first two names:Andrew
RosemaryHope you have fun! :-)


For every five people that like something, there are three that don't, and think that makes them better.

Rosemary "Raz" (For the R and Z sounds in the name, and for the fact that the similar sounding Ros can be used for names like Rosalyn)Next:

Processed “cheese”. The word should always, like Soviet “democracy”, be framed in quotes, for no matter what the law may say, I refuse to call this cheese
