There are so many great and unique nicknames for Aunts and Uncles out there. Some can be incredibly creative, like Zia for Aunt and Unkie for Uncle, while the classics like Aunt and Uncle have stood the test of time. These go hand-in-hand with our lists of Cute Nicknames for baby girls and baby boys and Nicknames for Grandma and Grandpa.

The truth is, there is probably no one in the world who will be as excited to be there for your little one like an Aunt or Uncle. Many of us have precious memories that revolve around our Aunts and Uncles. Whether they were a close family friend or a parent’s sibling, these experiences are always exciting and always a little bit cooler than hanging out with your own parents.

Now that you are the uncool parents, you get to watch your brother, sister or close family friend play this role for your kids. Because these people will play a huge and interesting role in your child’s life, they will need an equally important and interesting nickname.

How to Choose the Best Nickname

When it comes to selecting the best nicknames for the aunts and uncles in your life, it is a good idea to leave the final decision up to them. While the choice is ultimately theirs, it isn’t a bad idea to provide them with a few fun and unique suggestions for them to choose from. Just make sure that the name that is selected is something they like, as no one wants to be called something they dislike.

Consider Personality

Are your Uncles and Aunts fun, bubbly, out going or extremely traditional? Consider the personality traits that the aunt and uncle bring to the table and help them to choose a name that fits.

Pronunciation

Some nicknames for uncles and aunts can be difficult for a young kid to pronounce. Choose a name that is easy to say or be comfortable with their mispronunciation of a certain nickname and stick with that.

Culture

When choosing a nickname, consider your cultural background. Explore the different nicknames your cultural background provides, especially if you keep things traditional.

Selecting a nickname for aunts and uncles can be an exciting and fun experience. Just remember that they are ultimately the ones that should make the final decisions.
