If MC's Name is Johannes, Can I Nickname Him Johnny?
Originally, my Main Character's name was Johnathon. Naturally, his nickname was Johnny.
Then I changed his name to Johannes.* I don't want to call him Johan, for short. Is it still plausible to nickname him Johnny? Or do I have to call him Yanni or something? hahaha.
*I pronounce it with a "J" sound--can I do that? He's supposed to be part German, BTW. And the story is located in Late 18th century England.
Any thoughts and comments are welcome. Thank you in advance!
