Buddy and Skip are both nicknames I've heard of.
I even thought that Sport and Squirt could, theoretically, be nicknames. (I can see a big brother calling his little brother "Squirt", and the name catching on, so soon everyone is calling him that.)
But I wasn't sure if that was how Paul intended them in his poll. That is why I wrote my post explaining how I capitalize if its a nickname and don't if it's not.
