I love Douglas, and I used to hate Doug. Now I think its alright, especially as a diminutive. There aren't many obvious nicknames. Those are just Doug and Douggie.. Sometimes spelled like Dug and Duggie, which is kind of cute. Here are some stretches: Doe, Doey, Duff and Duffy, Dee, Glass, Gloss, or Giz and Gizzy. You have to think outside of the box.

I have never had the pleasure of meeting a Douglas. I usually think of an old man when I hear it, or Frederick Douglass (and that wasn't even the name that he was born with). Its really handsome, and Frederick is the perfect namesake.
