Ok but Rando is a baller name.
- Idk, B-Rad is what I always use.
  
  That's like totally 80's dude!
- Nardo would have been cool too.

Called my gf as 'Zabe' and she's trying to cut my head off
- Just call her Abe, that'll calm her down for sure.
  
  I'll try and let everyone updated
- Zabe Sounds kinda badass tho
- I do, genuinely, know a girl who goes by Zabes.
  
  Is she zawesome?
  
  I love that, Zabes has such cool girl energy lol

Everyone knows a nard or two.
- Nard-Dog
- I actually do. It started as Nardo, then the o got dropped because of the obvious fun of it.
- The Nard Dog
- Yo, what’s up?
- I used to.
  Sadly, Wolfman got Nard.
  
  Wolfmans got NARDS!
- Stop.

There can only be one Nard-Dog

Christopher could've been "stop her"
- Three decades I've had this name and only now am I noticing that.
  
  You could also top her.
  
  I wish I had a cool name that had words in it.
  
  Sorry it took you so long. To be fair though, I forgot about it entirely and I also have been using this name for a very long time.
  
  Well, did you ever manage to stop her?
- i hardly know her
  
  Then what was she doing in your underwear drawer?

My favorite painter, Nard da Vinci.
- le Nard

I knew a Jennifer who used “Niffer” as a nickname!
- What’s up ma niffa.
- Oh god I'd be afraid to call her that in public lol. Sounds way too much like whiffer which would be very rude

I call my friend Tim, "Moth"
He doesn't like it

Finally the first good DLC for names. The last update turning Leonardo into just Leo really broke the immersion.

I really wish I knew a Brooklyn because I really want to use Ookly

I'm calling the cops
- Mellow out, Ill.
  
  No, you mellow out, Ege.

I actually worked with a Leonard who preferred "Nard"

Now do schwarzenegger
- Egg
- Oh you can say it alright, it means black. It's quite a common word too, and it's given rise not only to toponyms and family names, but even designated origin products and some cultural references.
  Like the Black forest (Schwarzwalder), Black forest ham and blackface (Gesichtsschwärzung).
- Zene
- Warzen
- Warz

Strange things I'm reading here in Emmy

Yeah, my name is Roseanne and it got weird when someone just started calling me Sean
- As in, pronounced Shawn?
  
  Yes!
  Though, some other people have tried calling me Zann, which is phonetically half my name. This jerk just liked calling me Shawn

Had a college buddy Christopher, we just called him Stopher.
- Stop-her or sto-fer?
  
  Latter
- My cousin goes by Topher.

Christian: Christ
- Stian

Aladdin! Can I call you Al? Or maybe just Din? Or how bout Laddie!? Sounds like here boy! Come on Laddie!

Lip for Philip has always been interesting.
- Apt profile picture :)
  
  I suppose, but I was referencing US Shameless.

Classic Rando!
- Are we still doing phrasing?

Classic Rando!

Wake up babe...

Absolute Fucking Dickhead: Elon
- It'll be ok

Now all you need is a good list of "shorts". Urban dict seems to have outgrown that purpose. Ideas?

Odor
- It's cockney for Hodor
- Odor?
  
  Odor.

...how'd you get that first one, typo?
