Nickname (Babbler 0.9.1)

java.lang.Object
- rocks.xmpp.extensions.nick.model.Nickname

```
public final class Nickname
extends Object
```
The implementation of the <nick/> element in the http://jabber.org/protocol/nick namespace.

1. Introduction

A nickname is a global, memorable (but not necessarily unique) friendly or informal name chosen by the owner of a bare JID <localpart@domain.tld> for the purpose of associating a distinctive mapping between the person's unique JID and non-unique nickname.
4. Use Cases

In general, a user SHOULD include his or her nickname when establishing initial communication with a contact or group of contacts (i.e., the user has never been in communication with and does not have a prior relationship with the contact or group of contacts). Appropriate use cases therefore include:
- Presence subscription requests
- Message exchange
This class is immutable.
