On the IOM Dorsey vocabulary slips/ Clan information, JOD has written the name of a person with their associated clan.  However in some cases, he writes after the name the following:  "a nikie name."

Perhaps, Mark who has more recent than anyone worked with the JOD mnscpts, understand this notation.  It is not comprehensible from IOM language.

Thanks
