Step 1
Open up the steam profile page of the person you want to nickname in a browser. For this guide, we will be using Gaben's profile as an example.

Step 2
Do right click > Inspect Element > and go to the console tab
Paste the following:
ShowNicknameModal()
and hit enter.
Step 3
A cool thing will pop up on your screen, go ahead and type in the person's nickname and press "Add Nickname". That's it!

Instead of dealing with the Console you can just use "Enhanced Steam" and do it with a Mouseclick :Winker:
