What is the Sharai call for keeping a nickname (substitute, not short name)?

What is the call for ickname which is ot bad, meaningless and ot hurting anyone? Answer: The prohibition is ot about the use of icknames in general, but specifically about bad ames which hurt people’s feelings. The best man after the Most Beloved Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallam was called “Abu Bakr رَضِيَ ٱللَّٰهُ عَنْهُ” The popular Sahaba was called “Abu Huraira” Sayyiduna Uthmaan Bin Affaan, the 3rd Khaleefah was called “Zun-noorain”. The owner of 2 lights (he married two of the Beloved Prophet SallAllahu Alaihi Wasallams daughters.) So these are ames called out with respect. They are ot meant to insult or slander anyone. So a ickname called out to insult someone or exposing a fault or defect is different. And Allah knows best. n
