What is the meaning of the name Solomon?
(Sol′o‧mon) [from a root meaning "peace"].
Son of King David of the line of Judah; king of Israel from 1037 to 998 B.C.E. The Bible record, after reporting the death of the son born to David through his illicit relations with Bath-sheba, continues: "And David began to comfort Bath-sheba his wife. Further, he came in to her and lay down with her. In time she bore a son, and his name came to be called Solomon. And Jehovah himself did love him. So he sent by means of Nathan the prophet and called his name Jedidiah, for the sake of Jehovah." (2Sa 12:24, 25) Solomon later had three full brothers, sons of David and Bath-sheba: Shimea, Shobab, and Nathan.-1Ch 3:5.
Islamic answerAnd to Dawud(David) We gave Sulai'man(Solomon). How excellent a slave! Verily, he was ever oft returning in repentance (to Us)!And Sulai'man inherited (the knowledge of) Dawud. He said: "O mankind! We have been taught the language of birds, and on us have been bestowed all things. This, verily, is an evident grace (from Allah)."
And there were gathered before Sulai'man his hosts of jinns and men, and birds, and they were all set in battle order (marching forwards). (27:15-17 Quran).

Why is jack a nickname for John?
Because Jack is the nickname for John; i.e. "Jack Kennedy". It comes from the French name "Jaques", which is the same name as "John" in English.
Edit in response to tattoohead: Way back in 1066 AD England was conquered by french-speaking Normans. For hundreds of years after that, England was a bilingual nation; they spoke both French and English. That is how "John" and "Jaques" came to be interchangeable.
The answers above are totally incorrect. Jacques is not related to John at all - the French form of the name John is Jean.
I believe this is the correct answer.
Before the 17th century or so, the most common diminutive endings were the Norman/English "in" or "kin"
Jack, for instance, was originally from the name Jakin, a corrupted form of Jenkin (John+kin). And the name Hank is short for Han-Kin, or Hen-kin, or Henry-kin
Might as well ask why Chuck is short for Charles.
I agree. The first answer is completely wrong.
Jacques is in fact the French version of James, not John, nor Jack. While Jack does come from Jakin, or Jakken from the German, but I don't believe it is a "corrupted form of Jenkin (John+kin)."

Answer If you love someone, it's up to you to find a nickname for that person. There are just too many nicknames to write here, I'd be on this question all day. Choose a name and stick with it.
What is the meaning of the name Natasha?
"the Islamic meaning of Natasha is 'gift of Allah(god)' "
I have seen this stated elsewhere, but it is not originally a Muslim name. It is from Russian, and is a pet form of the name Natalia, Like Masha from Maria, Sasha from Alexander, etc. It was originally given to babies born at Christmas (Latin Natalis) from which the English word Nativity comes. The Latin word really just means birth.
It is a bit of a stretch to understand this as "Gift of God" unless you mean the birth of Jesus as a gift of God.
When a guy gives a girl a nickname?
it depends on the relationship. if you are freinds it could just be a joke based on how well he knows you, past experiences and such. if you are dating it could mean its one of those cutesy names
What are cool nick names for friends?
Anything of various types of fruit or a variant (Peach/Peachy, Melon/Melonhead/ Melonman, etc.); small animals (e.g. the Cat, The Dog, the Bull); colours (Mr. Purple, Ms. White, Mrs. Red, etc.); miscellaneous objects (Lamp, Disk, Basket). These can be related to the person themselves or entirely at random.
