So you have got your knickers in a knot over someone's nick name, yet you call me Gus. Henceforth I will use the nickname, Hypo, for you.

I think it comes down to the context and the intent in which a nick name is used.
Hipkins is called Chippie by his friends and work mates. I think of it as a term of endearment so I am ok with it.
Cindy on the other hand is frequently used by people on here who openly dislike or even hate Jacinda. Used in that way it is definitely derogatory. Is it misogynistic as well? Well quite possibly…but thats harder to ascertain.
