Why do you need a nickname?

I'd say if nothing comes to you intuitively that searching for nickname is bit pretentious

Tor? Hec?

No, sorry I tried and can't. It is an ancestral name that you are expected to use in order to inherit the castle?

Heckythump if you're in Scotland!

Hex? To rhyme with sex? Or hex like a gypsy's curse?!

I did think Hex, but it means evil spell. I don't feel the need for a nickname, but dp is troubled by the lack of.

Hecky

My twins are Hector and Arthur. Their brothers call them tractor and trailer.

I've got a Hector. I used to sometimes call him Heckles. Hec or Hect sometimes

There aren't any nice nicknames imo - Heck? Hex? Also, the meaning of hector would put me off.

Hex or Tori/Tor. Probably Hex, but I am a bit odd and do love me an 'x' in a name.

And nn's just happen, you don't need an automatic one. You'll probably end up calling him something completely random related to something he did as a toddler anyway.

The german word for witch is Hexe. Guess it comes from Hex.

Don't think there are any really.,

Neither of my DS's nn's have any obvious associations with their names, they just kind of evolved over time. Don't sweat it.
