Re: Looking for advice - a German nickname
in reply to a message by Kay
I speak some German (but you should probably run these suggestions by a native speaker!) and my first thoughts are "Feuerchen" (little fire) and "Flämmchen" (little flame). From a quick search on translation sites, "Flämmchen" seems more metaphorical, so might be a good pick. I think it sounds pretty cute too. I think you'll generally be after fire-related words with the diminutive -chen suffix. "Fünkchen" for example means "little spark" and is also used in the equivalent expression for "a spark/glimmer of hope". Hope this helps :)
