Calling User Nickname

Question

I am currently calling a user's nicename in a function I have:

   $users = $user_query->get_results();  
   foreach( $users as $user ):    
   echo $user->user_nicename; 

I'm trying to call the user's Nickname instead, but nothing I do is working such as:

    echo $user->user_nickname;

Is there a special way you have to call a user's nickname?

Thanks

If you want to query all users, try using the get_users() function. Note that this function returns an array:

<?php
$users = get_users();

foreach( $users as $user ) {
    echo $user['user_nicename'];
}
?>
