  • Say the name beside your surname, since four letters can sound clipped next to a long family name.
  • Check the initials, because a short first name and a short surname can form an awkward pair.
  • Write the name in Devanagari as well, so relatives spell it the same way you do.
  • Use our short names tool to compare four letter choices with three and five letter ones.
