Emmett?

A little boy named Emmett?  What would his NN be??

I like it. This is the name of a friend's baby. I can't think of a nn though.

Em? Although I really think more of this as a feminine nickname for Emily or Emma.

I have a real crush on this name.  Maybe NN could be his initials?

Very nice. Maybe Mett?

Not all names need a NN. I'd call him Emmett.

I also think that NN are best when they come organically and not planned. Sometimes it just seems forced. This would be one of those cases.

I agree. I like Emmett on his own. If his friends or family end up calling him a NN down the line, cool. Otherwise, it is NBD not to have a nickname.

Em is too feminine in my opinion, but maybe his initials would work. For example, if his name is Emmett James he could have the nickname EJ.

This is our top boy name right now.  His MN will be Joshua so he can always go by EJ if he wants to.  I can tell already that I'll be calling him "Em" though.  I think moms get a bit of a free pass when it comes to cutesy (or in this case, girly) nicknames.

I like it!  Like Emmett L. Brown from Back to the Future!  :-)

I really like the name Emmett! If I were to use it and use a nickname, it would probably be Mitt (yes, like Mitt Romney, but I like him, so its nbd).

I love the name, but I can only think of Emmett Otter's Jugband Christmas.  I loved that special.

Totally cute name.  I know several Emmetts.  None of them have nn's.  They go by Emmett.
