Your Embarrassing Childhood Nickname

[Kiju]

I wouldn't really call it embarrassing per-se, but I did have a nickname in elementary school.

Kids always teased me and called me Bugs Bunny because of the fact that I had buck teeth and loved to eat carrots. But hey...how can it really be teasing if they're calling me one of the most famous cartoon characters in existence? I learned that at a young age, so it became more of a nickname than a teasing name.

I never had a nick name in school. However, when I worked at Kroger for two years during the school year one of my co-workers always called me "Matty".

Millions of nicknames but the only ones that I think are inappropriate at my age are

"Possum" (grandmother) and "Jossy" (Parents and little sister) however my Dad still calls me Jossy and I don't mind it at all. Even in public so really it's not inappropriate at all.

I'm pretty chill about that kind of thing to be honest. Although I don't think I'd have been fine with it in front of girls that I was trying to impress in high school.

Then Muffin because the people who came up with it weren't very creative and saw me buy a muffin >_>

Lolwut? This reminds me of the office where Andy calls Jim "Tuna" forever after seeing him eat a Tuna sandwich.

I guess I got off lucky with my nickname. Some of you had a crappy elementary school experience. I've always said young kids can be the cruelest though.

Incidentally I had another nickname later in high school. I'm very short, and the Lord of the Rings movies had just come out, so... Hobbit.
