I swear there is a reason for this

For reasons that do not need exploring at this juncture, I need to crowdsource as many terrible and/or hilarious nicknames for "Nicholas" as possible.

I already came up with Nick-nack, Nickleback, and the potential for endless Christmas and Santa Claus jokes, but I'm tired and have temporarily run out of inspiration. (And yes, I'm aware that "Nick"-name itself is a pun.) We are not going in the "Lassie fell down the well" direction, though I'm open to stuff like Coca-Kolya.

Any thoughts?

Oh, I know-- Pull something other than 'Nick-nack' out of that song. "Nick-nack paddiwhack, give a dog a bone. This old man came rolling home," offers a lot of options that will make in-group sense but not be immediately obvious to other people. You could even cross that with 'rickrolling' by having someone call him 'Nickrolling.'
