More on reddit.comHow common would it be to use these nicknames in Hindi?
Nahh.. it'd be weird calling your friends that. Padhaku means "a studious person", kinda like a nerd. I haven't come across the word chava. Are you sure it's Hindi and not Marathi or some other Indian regional language? " Yar" is a common word used to call friends, but it's not a nickname. In India, we give nicknames based off a person's actual name (Sandeep becomes Sandy) or we use the "pet name" their parents call them at home, like "Chotu". Among close friends we tease them based on their physical traits, although this can be really mean. These nicknames are based on their weight, height or skin color. I wouldn't recommend this.
