With the total spread of virtual reality, such a thing as a nickname came into our lives. A nickname is, in fact, a name that a person invents for himself in order to register in games, communicate on forums, in social networks, etc. Speaking of the latter, the most popular social network in Russia today is VKontakte. And the nicknames that are used there have some features.
Why do I need a nickname for contact?
This question is asked by many inexperienced users, and they can be understood. After all, this social network during registration asks for your first name and surname. So why else come up with a nickname for contact?
If in most other cases the nickname is intended to hide the real username, then VKontakte serves as a supplement. After all, social networks are used by many for acquaintances, communication, networking, etc. And this means that the page should somehow characterize the personality and signal other important things for communication.
Nick selection
The administration of VKontakte, along with the introduction of the name and surname, offers to create a nickname as well. And many are happy to accept this offer. Someone wants to be easily found by friends, classmates, classmates, colleagues and other familiar people. In this case, the nickname for contact is taken, for example, in the form of a nickname known to everyone that a given person has in his circles of communication. And someone else, on the contrary, seeks to remain incognito in the network. And instead of a surname enters a mysterious nickname. Each pursues its own goals.
Based on these and other factors, nicknames are selected. And you should approach this issue responsibly, because the virtual name will be used for a long time ... Some even think that choosing a nickname is more complicated than giving a child a name. The range of options is very large!
About bad nicknames
When choosing a nickname for a contact, you should remember that you cannot choose very long, poorly pronounced virtual names. Also a gross mistake is the use of characters that are not on the keyboard. If we allow such a mistake, then instead of characters in the nickname there will be empty squares.
Definitely, a bad nickname is “stolen” from someone or too common. For example: “Dasha-the sun” or “Igor-superman”. A user with such a nickname will prove himself to be an empty and non-original person.
When choosing a name for network communication, you should not consciously embellish. For example, the situation where 14-year-old bespectacled Gena calls himself “The Monster Invincible” looks at least ridiculous.
And to demonstrate their problems is also not good. As, for example, people who choose the words “Lonely”, “Egoist”, “Suicide”, etc. as nicknames do this authority on social networks will not add and will not even make a very good impression.
About good nicknames
In general, when choosing a nickname for a contact, you should not talk too frankly about yourself in it. A good nickname is a hint, a riddle, a rebus for someone who will study the page. His task is to intrigue, interest, attract attention ...
Beautiful nicknames for contact are obtained if you approach the issue creatively and show your imagination. You can, for example, recall the brand of car, or your favorite character from a movie, a computer game.
An interesting result is provided when, when choosing a nickname, the user opens at random the page of the English-Russian dictionary and blindly selects a word. If the meaning and sound like it, it is quite possible to take the word for nick. No one will guess such a riddle, and the intrigue is guaranteed. Nicknames for contact - funny, original, with deep semantic meaning, easy to pronounce words and phrases - this is the perfect choice!
Some tips for girls
Nickname for contact - for girls a special headache. After all, every representative of the fair half wants to be irresistible and attractive not only in real life, but also on the social network page.
And this desire often leads to excesses. To emphasize their femininity and charm, girls choose for themselves something like “cats”, “babies”, “babies” ... Thus, pushing away normal guys and attracting various dubious types that roam the net in search of easy prey. And, by the way, the widespread Anyuta, Pole, Nastyushka - look trite and talk about the ladies' frivolity. Such nicknames are usually chosen by young girls or users who do not have much experience in social networks.
An interesting nickname for contact for girls is the names of some mythical characters, heroines of legends, fairy tales, works of art, films that evoke pleasant associations and with which the lady associates herself. Also, the names of various natural phenomena or elements that hint at the character of the owner of a virtual name will look wonderful as nicknames.
