[Mozared]

Hmm, lets see. My real name is Boyd, and Boydje (a kind of cuter version of it) is what a girlfriend of mine used to call me from time to time. I've also been called Marcel as it's my middle name. Aside from that, just Mozared and all varations of that (Mozzy, Moza, Moz).

 

[Erana]

To my mother and sister, I am, "Sissy."
No one else gets to call me that, though.

Also, on the IRC, I've been dubbed, "RanRan."

[Dirty Apple]

Ok, over the years there's been:

Shack
Big Unit
Gorbachev
Tex
Mouse

Those are all I remember. Basically everytime I entered a new social circle a new name would take hold.

 

[Pariah87]

Peoplve vary rarely calls me nicknames and to be honest I find it quite annoying because everyone else seems to have them. The worst part is they call me by my full first name, even though I prefer a shorter version.

At work I do have a couple of nicknames, derogatory in nature I suppose but said in jest. One of which I actually used as my online handle for a while.

B.U.F - Big, Ugly, F***er
Ug
Big Fella.

 

[Comb63]

For a while it was "grease monkey" because i was the only kid in the neighborhood than could fix a bike, skateboard, scooter, etc.
But lately its been Comb, D, D.C., killer, shotty, stuff like that.
Online it's usually asshole, dick, "Mr. Random," giggles, hard-ass, and sometimes even dumbass.

 

[MrPink67]

Jimi, since my last name is Hendrix, and 40-year old since I'm a very serious person.

 

[LooK iTz Jinjo]

My name is Isaac. Some wanker decided to call me "Ballsack" the ****! I started calling myself Jinjo online which lead a couple of my friends to call me this in real life along with Jinji or Jinjer Kid...

 

[Nargleblarg]

I used to be called called Sparky because someone was genius enough to look up my last name and found that's what it meant.

Also I'm sometimes called Freakout....take a guess why.

 

[FortheLegion]

My friends call me Asian
... I'm not Asian lol
Although my eyes are a bit squinted from my Polynesian heritage
oh and i convinced one person that I'm not Asian now he calls me Polynesian lol

 

[delet]

Lets see...

Harry Potter - Many people say I look like Harry Potter. It's self explanatory. (I still don't see it)
Potter - see above
Jew - I'm jewish, woo...
Wej - Jew backwards...
Freshjew - when I was a freshman and jewish, see a pattern?
seasle - I honestly don't have a clue...
B - Shortening of my name. I think I'm destined to be a 1-letter name, really.

People like to identify me by my religion despite my hatred towards religion. Oh well..

 

[Comma-Kazie]

Bernard, because I resemble the red-headed character from the "Stardust" movie. >_<

 

[Cortheya]

I just get the usual nicknames for "Griffin"

Griff
Griff-man
Griffindor
Griffith.
The Griffon
"Griff-Dawg"
There is also:
Tim
Shorty
Master G
Jeff

I have weird friends.

Griffin is an awesome enough name it doesn't need any nicknaming.

 

[Lucky Grim]

I've been called both Grim (hence the name) and Smeg (from Red Dwarf).

 

[rampantcreature]

"Buzz" was given to me in 7th grade, by my history teacher. He tended to give nicknames to everyone, and Buzz resulted as a combination of part of my surname, and him making a buzzer noise to get my attention in class. I've been using as an internet handle/name ever since.

I also had the short-lived nickname "Bazantachu" -a combination of my surname and a certain well known Pokemon- in 7th or 8th grade.

I was "C-Dawg" during a bowling game once in high school.

I only have ever let 2 people, my dad and high school gym teacher, call me "Chris" because I hate it as a nickname for Christine.

And then of course there are the typical nicknames for Christine...that I only respond to in a Czech context. I think they would be Kristy, Kristinko, etc in English. It actually took me a while to realize that I respond to different names in different languages.

"Xtine" started among my college friends. One friend realized while taking Ancient Greek that X (chi) is used to replace Christ, but X-tine is more natural to say than X-ine.

My home friends occasionally refer to me as "Tine" because it's a quick way to distinguish between the Christine and the Christina when we are all together.

Think those are all of the most common nicknames that follow me around.

 

[mcp1992]

My nickname in school was Bambi. I still have no idea why and worse of all it made it's way into the school's yearbook.
