Weird or Interesting Nicknames

Does anybody have a weird or interesting nickname? Maybe a story to go with it?

The one I use most is 'Shadow.' The only reason my mom started calling me this is: since I'm a Boy Scout, I normally go on campouts during the summer, and because of that, I ended up having an extreme tan which made me more or less a shadow (no, not the undead creature from AD&D ).

 

My sister, Jennifer, somehow ended up with the nickname Fred. Nobody is really sure how or why, but it's been years now since I have called her anything else.

 

Well, my friend Huzaan is the other female bass guitarist for concert band, but I always mess up her name one way or another, so I started calling her Huzi, because it's a lot simpler for me, and it's funny. She hates it so she started calling me Khuyen-ee. It's pretty funny.

 

I get called 'cow' sometimes seeing as how my last name is Pattison. Do the math.

 

My friends call me 'D', 'Bartholomew', 'Jeanpaul', 'Jared, or my personal favorite 'GaNgStA' depending the time of day and the day of the week.

 

We used to call my brother Barf. It was, in my other brother's words, a progression. Jeff to Jarf to Barf. As for said other brother, a friend of his said he reminded him of Brother Doogle from 'Father Ted'. Of course, he insists on spelling it Dewgall... As for me, I had this weird habit in grades 9-10. I would always bring my sweater with me. Always. These days, I just never take it off, because I no longer mind the heat, but back then, if it got hot, off it would go - and over my shoulder. I'd wear it draped over one or both shoulders in case it got cold again, and as a result, I was known to some as that sweater guy, to others as that weird guy with the sweater, and to others as... The Carlton Kid. Apparently, it's a reference to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, but I never really watched it. I know who Carlton is, but does anyone know what that has to do with sweaters?

 

Everyone in my family calls my brother Joel: Hole, because he always acts like he has a hole in is head instead of a brain. And to really piss him off my neise, McKenna, likes to sing, "Hole, hole...Hole in my head..."

Actually, my sister gave me and my brothers female names, so she would feel like she was surrounded by girls instead of a bunch of guys. She called Joel: Juliana; Brent was called: Brenda; Scott was called: Scotty Pippens...I'm not going to tell you what she called me, because...well, that's the last thing I need right now.

 

When I was really little, my friends used to call me either "Dumbo," "Mickey Mouse," or "Radar Boy."

I guess they thought that I had big ears...

 

One of my nicknames is Pinky or George, because that's what my mother wanted to call me

relay most people call me Charlie or Charles.

8people, weirdy, at first school I was goldilocks for some reason, CMK and Rappy are my more common ones

 

A girl called me Michelle...and she even wrote it on my pencil case with permanent ink. Therefore...it stayed, the mark and the name. It was because I called her Christopher...

This week, I forgot my pencil case in another class, and the next day somebody came and asked if Michelle is in the class .

 

The only nick I have is Padeen Dragonblade!

Padeen!

 

At work they call me the 'beul'. This is Dutch word meaning executioner. I can't think of way to explain to you how to prenounce 'beul', I don't think there is an English word with the 'eu' in it, like how we prenounce it in Dutch. Anyway, I'm not called this because like this because I like to kill things, but because I work hard.

But most of my friends call me Toine (which is prenounced in the French way. -oine, is prenounced like one (1) is prenounced in English) It is actually my real name, with the first to letres missing.

 

For a while in high school - specifically, my Latin class - I was greeted regularly as "Diane from Cheers". A reference I know most of you are too young to understand anyway.

 

I was called 'The Devil' through out high school, something that started with the father of one of my friends. I've never really understood why, but it's developed into a nickname in several separate places without anyone realizing the others had done so.

I can't figure out why.

 

I know someone at school that we call six people. I'm sure that you don't want to know the story behind that...

 

I am generally known as Spanky, for some strange reason.

It might have something to do with my last name being Hancock, but I dunno...

Maybe my friends are just a bunch of perverts or something.

 

Hmmm my nickname for the past 3 years of school (since year 9, im in year 11 now) has been mervin or merv. It started when an annoying year 8 was, for whatever reason, taking the piss by callin me mervin. It doesnt sound that bad but you have to hear the way it's said to understand why it's annoying, also he kept it up for a couple of weeks before i thumped him. Then all my friends started it up (i later found out one of them had put the guy up to it anyway) but since they were my friends and i couldnt be bothered to get pissed off at them all i just accepted it. It's also the sorta name i get called even now when i do something incredibly dumb/suicidial/crazy/insane/violent/dangerous etc - i.e during playground rugby matches there were merv chants, and also when i climb up school fences (either to get stuck tennis balls or just to prove i can) or doing incredibly stupid jumps (normally stair jumps or jumps over things).

Now in year 11 most people just call me Gav or Gavin and only a few (those in my old class or those that i was good friends with when everyday i did crazy stuff) still call me merv.

Well that's my story.

 

i usually is called by my friend "*******" or "idiot" or "dickhead" or the worst "emil" ()my real name

no iam really called mostly MiniMan... i was short before... veeery short...

 

Iam called Alice...

 

Soul, seriosly, f*** off! If I post here, I tell them my nicknames, I don't need you doing it for me!
