re-nicknaming myself

my name is Mary Jean, I have always gone by MJ. I just like re-imagining other nicknames for myself although they will probably never be used : ) This list also serves to help me remember some of my nicknames that have come up over time
  1. Emer
    • Origin:

      Irish
    • Meaning:

      "swift"
    • Description:

      Popular name in Ireland -- it's pronounced ee-mer -- from the legendary wife of Cuchulainn who was supposed to possess the six gifts of womanhood: beauty, voice, speech, wisdom, chastity, and of course, needlework. Is found in the poetry of Yeats.
  2. Emery
    • Origin:

      English from German
    • Meaning:

      "industrious"
    • Description:

      The superpopularity of Emily and Emma has recently boosted the unisex Emery, especially since it became a celebrity baby name when it was chosen by Angie Harmon and Jason Sehorn.
  3. Emmy Jae
    • Imogen
      • Origin:

        Celtic
      • Meaning:

        "maiden"
      • Description:

        Imogen has long been fashionable in England and is gaining favor in the US among stylish parents. Pronounced the British way — the initial i is short as in Kim, as is the final E as in Ken — Imogen is as pretty and classy as it is distinctive.
    • Marjani
      • Origin:

        Arabic, Swahili
      • Meaning:

        "coral"
      • Description:

        A name with the kind of pan-cultural feel that's in vogue now... and forever. A French variant, Marjane, belongs to the author of the iconic graphic memoir Persepolis.
    • Marlowe
      • Origin:

        Variation of Marlow, English
      • Meaning:

        "driftwood"
      • Description:

        Is it Marlo, Marlow, or Marlowe? Suddenly they all seem very much in the air, in tune with rhyming cousins Harlow and Arlo. It all started when Margaret Julia Thomas began being known as Marlo (after being previously nicknamed Margie and Marlow). More recently, Jason Schwartzman used the e-ending version for his young daughter, Marlowe Rivers, as did Sienna Miller for her baby girl Marlowe Ottoline.
    • May
      • Origin:

        Diminutive of Margaret and Mary; month name
      • Description:

        May is a sweet old-fashioned name that hasn't been on the national charts in several decades, but is definitely sounding fresh and springlike. Parents are beginning to see it once more as one of the prettiest middle name options. May was as high on the list as Number 57 in the 1880s; it's now 228 on Nameberry.
    • Mehri
      • Origin:

        Persian
      • Meaning:

        "kind, lovable, sunny"
      • Description:

        English speakers might want to pronounce this lovely name like the familiar Mary or Merry, but the correct Persian pronunciation includes the h -- meh-ree.
    • MJ
      • Myrtle
        • Origin:

          Greek botanical name
        • Description:

          Long in our category of so-far-out-it-will-always-be-out category, once seen as a gum-cracking 1940's telephone operator, we think it's time to reassess Myrtle, and look at is as a nature name, a plant with pink or white aromatic berries. Ruled by Venus, myrtle is a plant associated with love, peace, fertility and youth.
