NIKIPEDIA

 

James Nikitine


Hi! Before you move on, I would like to answer a question that probably came to mind after you read my name.

Is your last name pronounced just like nicotine?

The short answer: yes.

If you want the long answer, then I've provided a little help down below:

Nikitine (Nikitin)

/ˈnɪkɪtiːn/

Nikitin (Russian: Никитин), or Nikitina (feminine; Никитина) is a common Russian surname that derives from the male given name Nikita and literally means Nikita's.

I'm currently at the University of California, San Diego majoring in Cognitive Science with a specialization in Design and Interaction.

I'll be graduating in June 2026 with the goal of working as a product designer.

If you can help me fulfill that goal, I would love to hear from you!
