Hola! Should I introduce myself as:

Estoy Nicholae, -o- Soy Nicholae?

Just a little confused as I think I've seen both...

Well, if you are Nicholae for 3 seconds it may change tongue laugh

You should say Soy Nicholae as it's your permanent name.. smile

Ser vs. Estar you may have a look at this, it's very useful. wink

You would never say, "Estoy Nicolae" as you are and will always be Nicolae. You would say, "Soy Nicolae". Please go to the reference section under the More tab and go the the grammar part and you will see an excellent articel on ser vs. estar. It's really not that hard once you get the hang of it!
