No matter what I do I can't get a match between Becky and Rebecca. I've added the nickname to the right file and regenerated the hashes but no luck. I realize this module hasn't been updated in a while, but I thought I'd send the report anyway.

To expand on my above message, the bug appears to affect all names ending in -cky such as Ricky for Richard and Vicky for Victoria.
I've added tests for Becky/Rebecca, Ricky/Richard, Vicky/Victoria and they seem to be passing now. The nicknames.txt file expects names ending in -i, -y, -ie, &c to be spelled with a capital E suffix as a placeholder for it, so maybe that was where the trouble you had adding it came from.
