60+ Delightful Nicknames for Female Coworkers

Although some people believe nicknames in the workplace are a bad idea, if done right, there is nothing wrong with using nicknames for your female coworkers.

Think about it for a minute; you are stuck in an office for an average of forty hours a week. During this period, some people will nag you, some will boss you around, some will tempt you, some will scare the living shit out of you, and some will make you fall in love. How do you cope? Nicknames!

Nicknames are fun, and they can make employees bond with each other and feel part of the office family.

For workplace nicknames, things have to be more civil than the horrible high school nicknames. Therefore, you are not allowed to discriminate or encourage discrimination in the workplace. So, no racist nicknames, sexist nicknames, ageist nicknames, or any fun nickname whatsoever.

Ok, I’m kidding! You can still use fun nicknames in the workplace; just ensure it is not offensive and the person can live with such a nickname.
