‘Nickname’ is not ‘nick’ + ‘name.’
It was originally ‘ekename.’
‘Eke’ was the Middle English word for “also” or “in addition.”
Since ‘ekename’ began with a vowel, people used ‘an’ before it.
Over time, 'an ekename' became 'a nickname.'

Close-up of a Clematis flower with large, pale lavender petals marked by deep pink central stripes. The ruffled, double-layered centre is filled with twisted pink and cream petals, giving it a striking, textured appearance. Green foliage is blurred in the background.
Another quick update on Clematis ‘Josephine’… As her ruffled heart continues to unfold, she’s becoming more and more flamboyant. A true botanical diva! #DailyBotanicalBeauty #gardening

We will never stop opposing the occupation of Palestine because we believe in a simple and moral truth: every human being deserves to live in freedom.
Free Palestine.

I looked up what a group of Blue Jays is called, which is a "party" or "band." So here is a party of Blue Jays. (They do seem to like partying it up and causing a ruckus. I could see "a ruckus of Blue Jays" as a group name working too.)
