Nickname Creation Method

I thought of a nickname-creation method: See if the first two letters of your first name and the last two letters of your last name make a good nickname.

Unfortunately, the answer is: probably not.

Mine's okay: Deer.

The one for the guy I just wrote about is not: Daft.

My boyfriend's is pretty good: Rord.

Various other readers:
* Sams
* Taox
* Lyce (or Evce)
* Dace
* Dird
* Sher
* Pary
* Laur

Various family members:
* Jeer (previously Jarm)
* Caer
* Daht (previously Grer)
* Suoe (previously Kaer, Suck)
* Tioe
* Aloe
* Jeoe
* Mioe
* Thoe
* Rirm

It's interesting that some of them end up just being the first four letters of their first name.

I'm going to Alexandra Briscoe's as my favorite and Sunny Medlock's as my least favorite.

I like my nicknames (my initials; my name backwards; my name pronounced as if the J were 'h'-like, as in Spanish). This method doesn't really work for my name, unless you just take the last letters of my surname as they are pronounced in situ, and then it's actually cool!
