BEG inspired nick name thread
« on: August 02, 2008, 09:17:23 PM »
Mile Marker is a good one.  :-)

I got tagged with Chuck by an ex-gf and it stuck for awhile. (parly based on my middle name and my Charlie Brown personality)  :p

Anyone else care to share a real life nick name???

My nickname was Gubby.  :hammer:

I was about 3 years old and my Grandpa's neighbor, who was known as Pop, asked me what my name was. I pointed to my fat little tummy and said "Gubby".

Pop and a few others called me Gubby well into my 20s.  :-)

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government.

That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Often times when I was younger, I would use my last name (PM if you don't know what it is, but a hint is provided in the nickname itself) as part of a screen name  for various chat and gaming sites (Pogo in particular).  No one ever knew it was my last name, though. 

I ended up being called "Leopy" by my Pogo pals.   :lmao:    A weird one, but I found it cute.   :)

Well, in college I was "man" for a couple years and my roomate was "dude" but that is as much as I will share.  :tongue:

My much older brother called me The Blue-Eyed Jesus

My grandfather called me Rusty

My mother called me Her Favorite

My dad called me A Disappointment

My wife calls me An Asshole

My grandkids and now most of my kids call me Poppell (rhymes with Ted Coppell)

I call myself Self

...gee.  I'll have to think some more about this.

I dunno.

I've usually never been called anything but the shortened version of my first name.

In college, however, I was called "Weasel" and "Eighteen-and-a-Half."

My screen name is one of my nicknames. The other one is JC (My initials)

The way I got the name "Hacksaw" was during a TDY to NAS Keflavik, the young troops stationed there gave all of us TDY troops nicknames that had something to do with professional wrestlers.

Mine, obviously, was after "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan. The fact that my first name is also "Jim" sealed the deal!

I was even presented with a 2x4 by those that named me.They even autographed it for me. BTW, I still have that 2x4.

Friends have always just called me Jen. I know. How boring.

When I was a youngin', my dad referred to me as his "Little Wookie" (Star Wars was all the rage when I was born). Mom called me "Pumpkin."

I have no nic name, sometimes I wonder if I have a name. My son is named for my Father and the word is we all look alike. Lots of times when I'm about town folks will see me and say "You are XXX" father aren't you",same for when I go back to my home of my youth cept then it's "hey you are XXX son aren't you"

Couple years back my son started going by the nic "P" and someone added "Diddy" to it. one afternoon I came home and a bunch of wannabes were hangin' in the yard with P Diddy and one of the weisenheimers greeted me by sayin' "Hey P Daddy what's up".

An ex-girlfriend saddled me with the nickname "Drew Carey."

I do NOT look like Drew Carey!   :banghead:

I would have preferred "Big-Dicked Bastard," as I had suggested on numerous occasions.   ::)

I was Twink in college.....I was skinnier than Twiggy.

I do get called the Redhead by my other half and our male friends....otherwise it's just my name, except when talking to India and they call me Miss Deborah or Miss Deb....my last name is pronounced just like it looks....but most people screw it up.

My Aunt called me "Gracie" (and still does).
My Mom and step dad called me "Grody" when I was but a child.
My grandpa use to call me "Judy Judy Judy" and for the longest time I thought he didn't know my name was Julie.
My friend's husband calls me "Judy" as well.  For awhile both of their Mothers thought my name really was Judy.  His sister calls me that now too.  I don't think I look like a Judy.
Like I said in my other thread, my uncle has called me "Her Majesty", "Crash and Burn" and now calls me "Mile Marker".
My friend from high school calls me "Jules" all the time.  I don't think it fits me, I am not a Jules.

That is all I can think of right now.

In highschool was called Ernie (think the TV show "My Three Sons").

Geek or nerd should have been my middle name.

I got the nickname Sam from my mother from all the times I asked her to read.....Dr Suess's "Green Eggs And Ham". I suppose it could have been worse.

My brother Steve is nicknamed hoss after Hoss Cartwright on Bonanza

My oldest sister Susan is just Sue

My next oldest brother Dennis  was Dink, now its just  Den

My youngest sister Lisa is LB for her first two initials.
