[Opinions] Re: Nicholas or Nikolai
in reply to a message by Millie
Nikolai is one of my favourite names! I think there’s a really sweet, gentle and kind feel to it, and I also love Kai or Niki (or Niko) as nns. Even with context, I’d still go for Nikolai. I’d happily use him and I don’t have any Russian heritage either. Nicholas doesn’t even slightly stand up to Nikolai in my opinion, it feels tired and overdone (as does Nick) and I always think ‘knickerless’ when I hear it haha.
