How to Pick a Nickname That Sticks
- Make it personal: the best nicknames come from a habit, a story or an inside joke.
- Keep it short: one or two words are easiest to say and remember.
- Check it's kind: a nickname should make someone smile, not feel teased about something sensitive.
- Test it in the group chat: if everyone starts using it, you've got a winner.
- Save it in your phone: nothing makes a nickname official like a contact name.
