I guess it's a matter of opinion. I tend to prefer nicknames where the link is more obvious. Like the kind of nicknames where you don't have to explain them. Like
Benjamin is usually
Ben or
Benji, but if were a
Benjamin nn
Jamie you'd have to tell people. It's not automatic.
Emerens wouldn't automatically be
Enzo and neither would
Mackenzie or
Tenzin. You'd have to explain them all.
I'm really starting to like
Emerens though :)
