Not necessary... People who saw the post, maybe don't know an exactly answer... And it's comom to the first reply for asking more information... (Don't forget that the forum is visited by guests too)
So, Zodiak, don't worry about that...

Don't worry about that, Zodiak!!! Members are welcome here, including those who are not "active" on forums.... You can post when you want... (Y)

Now, back on your question: Don't know exactly too, but I don't think is possible to export a renamed contact (as it's).. But, you can try to export the contacts and them see what happens on other account (if you have/can).

I've made a test with a friend.... Both of us have WLM 8.1 and Plus!4.23. On my computer/WLM I added a nick for a contact... Then signed out my account and signed in my account on my friend's computer.
Result: The contact that I had added a nick was appearing with the real name and not as the nick added...
In conclusion: with this test, I believe that the nicks added are stored on your computer (where they were added).... And, as a after-formated computer don't show "pre-formatation" added nicks, I suggest you to try the export opition (but before you format your computer, please ;))...
If doesn't work, and nobody gave another solution, what you can do is to make a list (for example: e-mail - nick added) so you can re-add the nick after formating.. (Yeah, I know this is "boring" if you have lot's of contacts)...

Also, another information: I've looked into Google, but nothing... BUT be free to search there again (maybe I've missed something)...

And, again. be welcomed to the forum!!! ;)

Edit1: Other people, as always, be free to add more info...
Edit2: Sorry about the English... :$ I'm little tired...
