Give me boys names that have 'cool' nicknames

[UpInArms]

I cannot find one boys name that I love so I'm hoping to 'love' a nickname instead.

I cannot have a name beginning with the letter E as its the same initial as dd. I also cant have a name with one syllable due to our surname.

Family names that I like but cannot use are
Rueben and Marcus.

Any help greatly appreciated

We have a Jeremiah who was going to be known as Jem but is now known by his initials apart from when he calls himself Miah.

Christopher - Kit

I cant have Christopher- family name or Jeremiah as we have a Jamiaia

Sorry, you have a who?

Jacob but shortened to Coby rather than Jake

Benedict - Ben
Sebasitian - Seb
Dominic - Dom
Alexander - Alex
Andrew - Drew

I can spell Sebastian, really I can

Patrick - paddy

one of my favs

Solomon - Sol

I know Seeker, awful isnt it. Named because her dd had to begin with the letter 'J' like her other three children. Which makes iteven worse.

I like Grey too - I have Grady on my boys shortlist or how about Grayson as alternatives to Graham?

I have a aidan - aid for short

I have a aidan - aid for short

Theodore shorted to Theo or Ted or Teddy.

I love Theo but DH says 'feo' so it rules it out for us.

Zachary - Zac

My nephew is Zack

Malachy shortened to Mal.
Mechi (I don't know how to spell it. Makai?) shortened to Kai?

We've just had a Nicholas but he's known as Nicky at the moment, I'm sure it'll evolve into Nico or Nick as he gets older.
I love Patrick, with Paddy for short. One of the names on my shortlist was William, because it can be shortened to Will, Billy, Bill, Liam...
