Girls prefer something light, sometimes funny or cool, they decorate the name with all sorts of symbols, like here:

Continuation. . .
Funny and cool -
The Internet today is a universal way to communicate with your friends and loved ones at a distance, as well as endless gigabytes of entertainment and opportunities. Often people “go online” to forget about reality and become someone else.
And while social networks usually use your real name so that friends and family can easily find you, nicknames are often required for online games, dating chats and other cases. Choosing a nickname, of course, is not as difficult as choosing, for example, a stage name for an artist, but it is also important. Who knows how far your hobby will go and how long and where you will need to use this nickname.
Therefore, it needs to be memorable, original and more or less neutral. Just imagine a respected man under 30 with the nickname Seigneur puppy (“Senior Puppy”), which he chose for fun about 15 years ago. To prevent this from happening to you, approach choosing a name for the Internet not only with a great deal of creativity, but also wisely.
In this article you will find a variety of English nicknames for guys and girls with translation into Russian. So, if you are now looking for a cool, cute or original nickname, then these lines are for you.
What is a nickname?
The word nickname translates as “nickname, nickname, pseudonym” and comes from the Middle English expression an eke name, which over time transformed into the similar-sounding “a nick name”.
In Russian, we more often use a shortened version of this word - “nik”, also known as “nickname”.
How to choose a nickname in English?
Secondly, understand for what purpose you are choosing a nickname. Most often, nicknames in English are used by guys for online games. Here the imagination is almost limitless. You can call yourself Rambo for a shooter or Badass for a survival race. Also, nicknames for guys may be needed for online dating chats or Tinder. In this case, it is better to choose a nickname that will not scare away the opposite sex.
By the way, a nickname is not always a word that is not related to your real name. You can often find nicknames with variations of names, especially for girls. For example, Katrin can take the nickname Sweety Kate (Sweet Kate) or Creepy Kitty (Strange Kitty), but for a guy such a nickname in English would be at least a strange choice, so men often use shortened versions of their name. Like Joe The Runner or Just Matt.
In general, guys usually look for cool nicknames in English, and girls look for cute nicknames. Nicknames are often based on real nicknames given to a person by friends. Some people use their date or year of birth in their nickname, but it’s better not to do this in order to protect your personal data from hackers.
Show originality in choosing your future Internet name: this way, the likelihood that your nickname will be taken will be reduced to almost zero.

As you can see, the choice of name for a nickname is almost limitless: we have presented in the article only a small part of what can be found on the Internet. Choose wisely and remember that the only limit is your imagination.
At the same time, he closely followed the Soviet press and did not just read newspapers, but made constant notes and clippings on issues that interested him.
He could not have done half of what he did if he had not strictly regulated his life. He declared a decisive war against all bohemianism and laxity and always demanded the businesslike conduct of meetings, precise collection, efficiency of speech, and responsibility in carrying out assignments.
You make an agreement to come to his work at two o’clock, but you arrive at half past three. He refuses to talk... We are friends. I can see from his face that he is simply happy to see me. But in vain I ask to give me an “audience”, he laughs affectionately, but resolutely refuses to talk: he already has other things to do, and, besides, he clearly wants to teach me to be careful, and he does it without any pedantry, very cheerfully and kindly.
He was very indignant and upset when people were late for meetings of the board secretariat. And it happened more than once that a latecomer, arriving at a meeting, found the following picture. Dmitry Andreevich himself poses the question out loud, and after some thought he answers himself. Lyubov Iosifovna Kogan (then technical secretary of MAPP) takes the minutes. “Sit down! - says Dmitry Andreevich, looking angrily at the latecomer. “You see, no one is there, you’re the first, and you’re already twenty minutes late!” I myself examined two questions here - after the meeting you will familiarize yourself with them; If there are any objections, we’ll come to an agreement!”
For Furmanov, waiting for a latecomer meant submitting to a lax lifestyle, and to this lifestyle he declared war and waged it persistently and cheerfully.
Dmitry Andreevich Furmanov lived in a constant, cheerful and cheerful rhythm of work. It was like a march, a cheerful marching step to the music that he heard from somewhere inside his young and inspired soul. There was nothing forced, soullessly sanctimonious or doctrinaire about this. He lived intensely, organized and disciplined. It was fun for him to live like this, and, being friends with him, I involuntarily wanted to imitate the cheerful, hard-working pace of his life. His day was so compact that every quarter of an hour was thought out in advance.
Having gotten up early in the morning and done gymnastics, Dmitry Andreevich devoted these early hours, when his head was especially fresh, to his next work, the one he was working on. There was a period when I often stayed overnight with him. In the morning you want to talk to him, you open the door to his office, you see the stubborn back of his head through the crack, his whole figure bent over the desk - and you understand that you cannot disturb him.
After working, he went to work. He always walked from Nashchokinsky Lane to the center, trying to choose different routes whenever possible - this was his walk - just like going home after work, having lunch and again to a meeting or meeting - always on foot. Even now, without sad emotion and tenderness, I cannot look at the sidewalk of Prechpstinsky Boulevard: how many times, after some heated discussion of that time, did we walk quickly and cheerfully along this deserted sidewalk, past houses that, just like now, stood for more than thirty years ago... Everything that was expressed in clear and dry formulations during the discussion was deciphered in the lyrics of experiences in a friendly conversation. Here are creative plans, not yet separated from the flesh of his own biography, and now the writer Furmanov, talking about his next work (he was then working on “The Mutiny”), again turns into an excited participant in wonderful events... “We need to write a play about this! » - he exclaims, and this means that the play will be written in a year, in two!
With total distribution virtual reality Such a concept as “nick” has come into our lives. A nickname is, in fact, a name that a person comes up with for himself in order to register in games, communicate on forums, on social networks, etc. If we talk about the latter, the most popular social network in Russia today is VKontakte. And the nicknames that are used there have some peculiarities.
Why do you need a nickname for contact?
This question is asked by many inexperienced users, and they can be understood. After all, this social network asks you to give your first and last name when registering. So why else come up with a nickname for contact?
If in most other cases the nickname is intended to hide the real thing, then on VKontakte it serves as a kind of addition. After all, social networks are used by many for dating, communication, establishing relationships, etc. This means that the page should somehow characterize the person and signal about other things important for communication.
Nickname choice
The VKontakte administration, along with entering a first and last name, suggests creating a nickname. And many gladly accept Someone wants to be easily found by friends, classmates, classmates, co-workers and other acquaintances. In this case, the nickname for the contact is taken, for example, in the form of a well-known nickname that a given person has in his social circles. And someone else, on the contrary, strives to remain incognito on the Internet. And instead of a surname, he introduces a mysterious nickname. Everyone pursues their own goals.
Based on these and other factors, nicknames are selected. And this issue should be approached responsibly, because the virtual name will be used for a long time... Some even believe that choosing a nickname is a more difficult matter than naming a child. The range of options is very large!
About bad nicknames
When choosing a nickname for a contact, you should remember that you cannot choose very long, difficult to pronounce virtual names. It is also a serious mistake to use characters that are not on the keyboard. If you make such an oversight, then instead of symbols in your nickname there will be empty squares.
Definitely, a bad nickname is one “stolen” from someone or too common. For example: “Dasha the Sunshine” or “Igor the Superman”. A user with such a nickname will establish himself as an empty and unoriginal person.
When choosing a name for online communication, you should not deliberately embellish it. For example, the situation when 14-year-old bespectacled Gena calls himself “The Invincible Monster” looks at least funny.
And showing your problems is also not good. As, for example, do people who chose the words “Lonely”, “Selfish”, “Suicide”, etc. as nicknames. This approach will not add authority on social networks and will not even make a very good impression.
About good nicknames
In general, when choosing a nickname for a contact, you should not talk about yourself too openly. A good nickname is a hint, a riddle, a rebus for someone who will study the page. Its task is to intrigue, interest, attract attention...
You can get beautiful nicknames for contact if you approach the issue creatively and use your imagination. You can, for example, remember the brand of a car, or your favorite character from a movie or computer game.
An interesting result is achieved when, when choosing a nickname, the user opens a page of the English-Russian dictionary at random and blindly selects a word. If you like the meaning and sound, you can easily take the word for your nickname. No one will be able to guess such a riddle, and intrigue is guaranteed. Nicknames for contact - cool, original, with deep semantic meaning, easy to pronounce words and phrases - this is the ideal choice!
Nickname for contact is a particular headache for girls. After all, every representative of the fair half wants to be irresistible and attractive not only in real life, but also on a social network page.
And it often leads to excesses. To emphasize their femininity and charm, girls choose for themselves something like “cats”, “babies”, “babies”... Thus, repelling normal guys and attracting various dubious types who roam the Internet in search of easy prey. And, by the way, the common Anyuta, Polyusya, Nastyushka look banal and speak of the lady’s frivolity. Such nicknames are usually chosen by young girls or users who do not have much experience communicating on social networks.
An interesting nickname for contacts for girls are the names of some mythical characters, heroines of legends, fairy tales, works of art, films that evoke pleasant associations and with which the lady associates herself. The names of various elements or elements will also look great as nicknames, somehow hinting at the character of the owner of the virtual name.
Hi, friend! It’s cool that you are engaged in creativity and are going to let it into the masses =) I know this, because otherwise you wouldn’t have wondered how to come up with a pseudonym.
In this article, I will tell you about the typical mistakes that people make when choosing a nickname, what exactly I think makes a nickname cool and memorable, I will give a bonus and give examples.
But first, it would be nice to tell who I am and why I am writing an article on a similar topic. The fact is that I myself am not far from creativity, and just like you I was faced with the problem that I could not decide what to call myself. I tried about 5 nicknames over several years, and settled, in my opinion, on the best. I’ll tell you why I decided this at the end of this article.
3 common mistakes when choosing a nickname
- The first thing I would like to talk about is that you should not choose a nickname as a nickname. I mean ordinary nicknames that everyone had in the yard or at school, which may have carried over into adulthood, and then you decide that since everyone already calls you Vantuz, then even in the creative community you will be known by by this name. Possible for YouTube (if you run your own channel) this would only be a suitable nickname if you were covering some internet crap or something worse. I don't see any other options here.
- The next point is simply called “shit and eat.” I think that from the title of this paragraph it should be clear what I mean. This kind of crap is very common among gamers, but they have their own specifics... At the same time, someone calls themselves that in VKontakte, uses a similar pseudonym for rap and for YouTube. I have one question for such people - what kind of patience and desire to find out who the author of this “wonderful creation” should a person have in order to read (correctly!), remember, recommend you to someone, and so that he can then easily find you in Internet. For some reason no one thinks about this. No need to force people to tense up!
- The next typical mistake is that in an attempt to come up with a super-cool and unique, memorable nickname, people completely forget about adequacy. Here are some examples, real people: Homeless, Homo in the Village, Vodavrot and these are not the most frostbitten =) When I see such names, it immediately becomes clear that the person is doing something frivolous at the level of an amateur... there is no desire to watch or listen to him. And it's not worth it.
These are the key mistakes that I was able to highlight from the crowd. I strongly recommend not to repeat them. Why? It seems so clear.
Now to the main question
How to choose a good nickname
There are quite a lot of options. I don’t know which one will be more useful to you, so read on and choose what you like.
- The first and most obvious is a pseudonym from a name. I don’t know why many people avoid this option. Just look at your first and last name. Perhaps it reads and looks very cool and there is no need to change anything. You can try to write in English if you are going to make yourself known abroad. For an artist or musician it will be great solution...or a designer. Denis Simachev is an example.
- It won't suit everyone, but it's an option. Again, play with your name. Perhaps by combining part of the first and last names, you can get a good nickname. Just to give you an example, the author of this blog is also known as Deep.
- The following options are more complicated. Think about what mood your creativity conveys, what topics it is about and where it is directed. Based on this, sketch out on a piece of paper all the associations that come to your mind. Then either choose from what is available, or you can continue the chain, but this is unlikely. Out of 3 questions, you can easily write 30 options. You can choose something from this. Perhaps slightly adjusted for better sound.
- The next option requires time and experience in what you do. As I promised at the beginning, now I’ll tell you how I chose my last stage name. My environment helped me with this, even without my participation. According to my friend, in the conversation they started talking about me... word for word, and a new nickname was ready, sonorous and which is meaningfully connected with me. I didn’t approach anyone at all with the words “help me come up with a cool nickname”, it somehow all happened on its own. But I repeat that it will most likely take a lot of time.
Mistakes when coming up with a nickname (pseudonym)
There are few of them, but they exist. And for success in your endeavor, I advise you to use these points.
- The name should not be long. If you have more than 10 letters in one word, then you should think about a different nickname.
- The next point is related to the first, but I decided to separate them. There is no need to make your nickname more than 4-5 words. It’s very inconvenient to read and write, and it’s unlikely that anyone will remember it the first time. But there is an exception. I remember once watching a Comedy Battle program and there were guys who called themselves “Just a fellow traveler and you know about it.” In my opinion, it’s a great name for comedians. I can’t say exactly why it sounds great and is memorable, perhaps it has something to do with the song =)
- Should be easy to read. I wrote about this in errors and will repeat it again. Make your name as simple and clear as possible - it will be easier for people to remember you.
- There is no dissonance between what you do and your name. It would be very strange to be called a “little pony” when you are a 35-year-old man with a mohawk who performs growling hard metal... well, I think the example is clear.
How to choose a creative nickname for a girl? Try these same tips. It seems to me that there should be no differences.
Generators of nicknames, names and pseudonyms - a bonus for the lazy
And now the promised bonus for those who got scammed. Now there are quite a lot of services on the Internet that allow you to generate a nickname or name for yourself. As a bonus to today’s material, I’ll list some of them so that you have plenty to choose from. These generators are made for lazy people who don't want to think for themselves. As a rule, they all work in the same way (set the required number of characters and words, press a button and get a standard and uninteresting nickname).
