Nickname is the unofficial name of a person. He can invent it for himself, but more often than not, the people around him give the nickname to the person. Unlike the name that is given to the baby at birth, the nickname reflects not the desired, but the real character traits inherent in the person.
Instruction manual
1
In order for the nickname to successfully take root, you need to aptly notice some funny trait of your “victim”. Perhaps the person walks with his legs spread funny and this reminds a penguin from a children's cartoon, or his naughty whirls are constantly sticking out, which makes him look like an alien. Be careful and unbanal.
2
Of course, nicknames characterizing their shortcomings adhere tightly to people. A person may not pronounce the sound "p" or lisp, be full, wear glasses, be short or, conversely, tall, have red hair or a huge foot size. Schoolchildren of all time ridiculed such shortcomings, calling their classmates burrs and bespectacles. However, if you want to come up with an accurate, memorable and unbanal nickname, and most importantly - treat a person well, do not stoop to the level of high school.
3
Take a closer look at the victim, perhaps it resembles the hero of a popular movie or book? Not necessarily a portrait resemblance, the boy just might have round glasses or a favorite hat - and here you have Harry Potter and captain Jack Sparrow.
4
You can earn a nickname with your behavior. Take a closer look at the girl from the company, which, having good manners, regularly lifts her nose. It is likely that your friends will willingly follow you to call her Princess.
5
You can think of a nickname from a surname. After all, there are thousands of Korolevs, Sokolovs and Gurchenko. But the Kings, Sokolov and Gerychy much less. A successfully warped surname will probably be assigned to its owner.
6
Many people come up with nicknames on their own and use them when communicating on the Internet or, for example, signing their poems or songs. If you decide to give a nickname to a friend, he will surely be pleased if you do not begin to experiment, but will use what he invented for himself and which he probably likes.
