Long boys names with good nicknames

[tweedlewee]

Due a little boy in 6 weeks. He will be brother to James and Lyra.

We love long names with nice nicknames, and so far have

Atticus - Kit for short
Zachary - Zac
Augustus - Gus

Does anyone have any other ideas along these lines?

Thanks!

@TatianaBis Artimis?

I knew a Thaddeus nickname Ted, which is pretty unusual.

@feliciabirthgiver

That’s not a thing.

Artemas is a boys name, meaning follower of Artemis. Probably a name that would be plagued with misspellings and people assuming you’ve used a incorrectly spelt girls name for your son, but i quite like it.

Seems a bit strange to have as bland a name as James, with a brother called Atticus

I thought Kit was short for Christopher, which I prefer to atticus. Maybe Kristian would also work for Kit?
Alexander nn Sandy
Nathaniel nn Nat/ Nate

@Derbee you're a delight

Sorry, you’re tetchy but they don’t really go do they?

I like Dominic - Dom, Nick
