I go by my surname in real life, and by Gooball/Goo online

I've got a habit of never calling someone by their real name if I can help it, I am "that guy" who makes the names.

I have been called ''Flang'' for some considerable time. I have no idea where that came from. Since I moved here, I don't have that nickname anymore. After a while here, people started calling me ''Kieft'' (say: keeft). Again: no idea where it came from.

RJ. Those are my first and middle initials.

Also, Doc.. though I'm not exactly sure how that one came to be.

My parents called me Goose when I was a kid. I'm not exactly sure where that originated, either, to be honest.

Yes, the name I go by in everyday life is nickname derivative of my legal name.

One of my uncles also has a penchant for giving his nieces and nephews nicknames, so I'm also called Murphy among family.

I used to be called Nate Dogg in middle school for really no reason other than Nate being my name.

If a username counts, I've been Ty for years now online. Barely anyone calls me Nate around the web.

In middle school the bullies used to call me Fatass Titties McGee. :(

Pretty much all of my friends call me Mic (pronounded with a hard C, not like microphone.)

Several.

My first real nickname was Mini-Tall Howard. This was due to a friend of mine who was a grade above me in highschool. Though his name was Travis, people in his class referred to him as Tall Howard (Due to his height, though the meaning of the Howard part always evaded the two of us). He and I looked quite a bit alike one-another back then. Blue eyes, brown hair, we'd even been mistaken for one another by various people. Conversely, kids in my class thought of him as Big Ben (My name being Ben).

Then, when Grade 10 rolled along I began to wear a Che Guevara beret. Thus I earned the nickname Communist...if one can call how it was used a nickname. Conversely, some other people (Mostly girls, for some reason) called me Zombie, because I always wore black and occasionally sported Black Metal affectations.

Since then, I've also become known by Benji, Benito, Benjo and oddly, Kiddy.

just yesterday, a friend of mine decided that I should be called "The party princess of penis".
Care to elaborate on the origins of such a... unique nickname? I feel as though there is the potential for a great story here.

'The Other One' for being a twin. My co-workers call me 'Professor' because I'm a part time instructor at a nearby university... but they've been calling me that since they found out I have a higher education.
I get called 'Thorny' and 'Thorsie' by many people. Cuz my name is Thor. When I played sports and by some other officers I get called 'Anvil' cuz my surname is an anglicized version of the word anvil in another language. At this point if a person has a repeated difficult time pronouncing my surname I tell them to use Anvil since I respond to it.

Nothing terribly creative.

Most of my nicknames I haven't liked, but the few that I have liked are the ones I've had most recently:
Chalms, Torr, "That goddamn Feral again", Trap, Trololasque.
Lots of T- ones...

Eevee, because of my initials. And "Eevee is small and cute and has lots of potential."

Bam Bam from when I was a baby because I used to stomp my feet and pick stuff up and smack it on the floor like Bam Bam from the Flintstones.
Only my auntie is allowed to call me that any more... e_e

I get called "Yorkie" quite a lot because in my circle of friends I am the only one from Yorkshire. I actually quite like it.
