Ever had a nickname?

[Vamantha]

Name is Samantha and I hate when people call me that (unless it's my SO) and would rather be called Sam. Somehow I got the nickname "Sammich" and by far it's the best nickname ever. :3

 

[DBLT4P]

Im called Ned by everyone even though its not my actual first name, Last name is Mobus.

I've never been totally clear on the origins of any of these, friends just come up with them...
Ned-zepplin
Sick Ned
The Mobusmobile
The Mobius-strip

 

[Boggelz]

My name is Kevin and people call me Kevin Bacon or just Bacon.
I don't even think its really because of the actor, someone just called me Kevin Bacon one time and next thing I know it stuck.

 

[Lambi]

Take a look at my username. There you have it.

I got it because I have curly hair.

 

[Texas Joker 52]

My name is Christopher, people call me Chris. For real life interactions, thats fine.

But on Xbox Live, and here, I go by Texas Joker. People usually just call me Joker.

NOT ONCE HAS ANYONE CALLED ME TEX GODDAMNIT.

But a guy can dream.

 

[AetherWolf]

"Boo" by my mother when I was very young, for some reason.. "Randi" in elementary school (supposed shortened form of my name, Miranda). There aren't many derivatives of Miranda, I suppose.

 

[neoontime]

I don't have nicknames, just bad pronunciations of my name.

 

[Patrick Buck]

"Sandy Swedish Barbarian".

Don't ask. Please.

I'm asking.
I'm putting it out there. I'm breaking the rules.
Why is your nickname "Sandy Swedish Barbarian"?

(I'm sorry.)

I am Swedish.
People in Sweden are uncivilized barbarians.
Sweden is also full of sand.
We invented the sand-mower.

Well that was a lot less dramatic than I was expecting. I was hoping for at least one, dark truth, and possible tears at horrible memorys. You disappoint me. >_<

 

[Fat Hippo]

Sure, I'm Chlöisu. Well, often it's said more like "Chlööööiiiiiissuuuuu!" It's alright if you can't pronounce it, and yeah, it's a little hard to explain.

 

[MrFalconfly]

My friends call me 'Brøddrengen' (The Breadboy in english).

It was a name that stuck after a funny incident at the introduction to our school.

 

[Creator002]

A friend of mine and my cousin call me "Creator" sometimes as that's my screen name on everything (they don't pronounce the numbers). Everyone else usually calls me by my given name though.

 

[Roofstone]

My friends have a habbit of calling me mom, not sure why. Probably because I teach, but god knows. *Shrug*

 

[Hell-On-Wheels]

I've had a few:

Delmar (which gets shortened to 'Delly')
Harry
Doctor
Boots

And my actual name is Matt. Go Figure.

 

[Rblade]

In my parents town football team (the feet using one), I was called Ruud. Because one of the more influential members of the team thought I looked like Ruud van Nistelroy (Dutch football star).

FYI my name starts with an R but is otherwise nothing like it.

And in my D&D group we just reference eachother by the first letters of our name because we are fiendishly lazy like that.

 

[bauke67]

My name, as seen somewhat left of here, is what most people call me, but they variate it with Benny Winkelman every now and again. Not that much of a nickname, because it doesn't really mean anything, other than that teachers sometimes have trouble recalling my exact name.

 

[Eddy-16]

My real name is Edward, I get called Eddy by pretty much everyone except some of my teachers to whom i'm Peaches and one girl who calls me Teddy.

 

[Latinidiot]

A friend of mine once remarked that I looked as though I had a monumental cock. The conversation then spiraled out of control, and we decided that I should be called Moby Dick. Since then I occasionally got called Moby, but it didn't really stay.

 

[Rule Britannia]

My full name is Sebastian but I stepped into highschool in year 7 (grade 6 to US/CA(I think)) and I was given Seb. Now only my family calls me by my full name, Sebastian. After moving to Canada in 2009 I'm still called Seb but I'm often called by my last name too.

 

[Microman4]

My name is Sam Brady. And some people call me 'SB'.
People my age seriously lack imagination.

 

[ThatLankyBastard]

I once beat 6 more-athletic-than-me people in an decent length over-very-rough-terrain race by a landslide...

Someone said "Man, Fuck racing That Lanky Bastard"

...and here I am!
