It's short for Nicholas... I assumed that there were other "Nick MacDonald"s
in the world already, so three years ago I changed the spelling to a form
that would have the same pronunciation, yet I could be reasonably sure no
one in the world had taken yet. (After all, there is no "k" in Nicholas- why
not a q?)

It makes sense- and it doesn't make sense at the same time.
