I have a question about the nickname of a Romanian name.
I'm Japanese. There is a famous Japanese animation called "ドラえもん／Doraemon ". The name of the main character is Dora-emon. The nickname is "Dora-chan". "ちゃん / chan" is a common diminutive used in Japanese nicknames and is a suffix. What is the nickname for this "Dora-chan" in Romanian? What is the diminutive that follows "Dora"?

We don't have that, we have endearing terms such as dragă=dear, scumpule= precious for male scumpo=precious for females drăgălaș=adorable drăgălașo=adorable for female form. But we don't have the equivalent to chan in Romanian. It's just not the same thing.
You can use the name DORUȚA for DOra-chan , where "-uța" is an equivalent for the "-chan" suffix. The suffix "-uța" is used only for feminine nouns in Romanian including for some names.
Hi, normal in Romanian is " nana Dora", this is the form used for children, the form "chan" it's used also for friend but in Romanian you will use "bre".
