History & Origin

Nicco is a double-c spelling of Nico — a short form of Nicholas or Italian Niccolò, from Greek Nikolaos, 'victory of the people'. The styling gives the friendly short name an Italian flourish.

It registers thinly beside Nico. Rare, people's-victory at the root, and stylish.

Did you know? Niccolò is the Italian Nicholas — think Machiavelli — meaning 'victory of the people'; Nicco gives the short form a doubled-c Italian look.
