Anne Squires:

Also there is  Nymphadora "Dora" Tonks, aka. "Tonks", Bellatrix
"Bella" LeStrange, Narcissa "Sissy" Malfoy.  I also believe Hermione
was called "Mione" a couple of times, not sure if that counts.  

Then, obviously  we have Tom Riddle aka. "Voldemort"  aka. "The Dark
Lord"  aka. "He Who Must Not Be Named"  I suppose those are not really
nicknames though, more like noms de guerre or pseudonyms.  There is a
similar situation in regard to Harry's other names:  "The Boy Who
Lived"  and "The Chosen One."
