If I had to choose, Nat. I think Nate is also for Nathan.

I *adore* Nathaniel, it may be my favourite boy's name. I'd hope that no one would shorten it because I can't think of any short form that moves me at all.

Nathaniel Rex
Nathaniel Morgan
Nathaniel Harvey
Nathaniel Anthony
Nathaniel Lennox
Nathaniel Calvin
