Nicky

Nicky is a boy's and girl's baby name of Greek origin, a diminutive of Nicholas, from the Greek Nikolaos, composed of nike (victory) and laos (people), meaning 'victory of the people.'

With over 7,400 recorded births, Nicky is the friendliest, most approachable form of Nicholas — the name that says 'come talk to me' rather than 'I am formally addressed.' It's been used both as a given name and nickname across generations. Nicky Minaj (spelled Nicki) brought it contemporary pop culture presence, while Nicky Wire of the Manic Street Preachers gave it indie credibility.
