I think it is because lots of people have similar names (Kate, Lucy etc.) and an original nickname can describe just you and tell you apart from other people. They can also be used if you want to shorten your name if it is really long (Natalia to Nati etc.)

There could be several reasons why boys use nicknames. It may be a way for them to establish a sense of camaraderie and bonding within their social group. Nicknames can also provide a sense of identity and individuality. Additionally, using nicknames can create a sense of playfulness and fun among friends.
