Nicknames

Surprize · 26-08-2007, 03:19 PM

Curious, have you had nicknames in your real life? What was it? It can be funny.

Mandy · 26-08-2007, 04:48 PM

My nickname is Mingy, lmao. I can't get away from it. That and "Cootery"

Jacoby · 26-08-2007, 04:54 PM

Well my real name is Jake, obviously, and that's usually how people get my attention.

I sometimes get Jacoby from my friends, but not often. My neighbor calls me Jacoby all the time.

My mom called me Buzz all the time when I was younger.

And my friends jokingly call me Jakers now because of that kid's show with the Irish animal or whatever. Hopefully that won't stick.

frodo1511 · 26-08-2007, 05:42 PM

Frodo for me, as I am shorter then my friends.

Mandy · 26-08-2007, 05:58 PM

Jakers is such a cute nickname. I used to work with a gay guy named Jake and all the girls called him Jakey.

runangl · 26-08-2007, 06:21 PM

so i love your avatar mandy. hahahaa

my freshman year of college a group of my friends came up with names we'd be if we were the opposite sex, so that has pretty much stuck. i'm carl. not the most attractive name hahaha

peach · 26-08-2007, 09:02 PM

Don't have any special nicknames. People wanted to call me Cat cause it was shorter. But I hated to be called that. I dont know why. Maybe cause it has the same meaning as a cat(animal). Can't remember.

Porcelain_Doll · 27-08-2007, 12:59 AM

I have a fair bunch....to my friends I'm either "Nostradamus" or "vampirito" (little vampire). Some call me Bett, 'cause I don't like Betty very much. They still call me that, though.

To my family I'm Lu, Luli, Bettilú. It all began with my sister, when she was 3 there was this character named Betty Blue and she started calling me that. 'Cause she couldn't say it right, the word became "Bettilu" and now it's just "Lu" or "Luli". It's funny to see other people's reactions when they hear that 'cause "Luli" and "Lu" are usually used for girls called Lucía or Luciana.

I'm also called Titi since that was how my little brother said my name when he was a baby.

Grandpa calls me Lialke ("doll" in yiddish, pronounced "lee-al'-keh").

Mum calls me Gatita (kitten) since the day I was born, because of my eyes.

michael22 · 27-08-2007, 01:13 AM

I have a couple, they are as follows

noodle- my family uses this all the time for some reason
the eternally screwed one- another of my family's creations this refering to my inability for anything to be done properly
tragically un funny virgin- of kkw origin for the tendacies discussed in the name.

I am constantly on the look out for new ones.

Porcelain_Doll · 27-08-2007, 06:22 PM

you forgot kilt-boy

hasselbrad · 27-08-2007, 06:29 PM

"Hasselbrad" was hung on me by a co-worker because of my love of Hasselblad cameras.
My father called me "goat" when I was younger, because I was stubborn.
My grandmother called me "Ronnyrickysteveybradley"...because she was just working her way through the male grandchildren, and I was the youngest.

Ranman · 27-08-2007, 10:59 PM

Today I recieved a nickname, "you f--king prick

The reason for this was when I was driving a girl cut me off at a traffic light, the rudest move I ever seen. So I was drinking water in a cup and I thru it on her car. She said to me " You're so tough throwing water at my car" And I said that wasn't water it was piss. Thats when I got the nickname.

Your eyes?..

Pygmalion · 28-08-2007, 09:40 AM

My bestie calls me "Ezzy Baby" (My real name's Erin) because he's a seedy man with a hairy belly, my sister calls me "Erie May" when she wants something, and in first year uni I got called "Missy" because I'm gay, I play guitar I had a haircut similar to Missy Higgins.

Surprize · 28-08-2007, 10:08 AM

Well, I see, many of you talk honestly about your nicknames. So I decided to say mine too. There was "Eagle" some time ago. It isn't very bad, I like this birds. My last nickname was "Courtesan" - this one I don't like, I almost hate it. And all of you should know that it isn't true. Fortunetly, this nickname is in the past.
Now everybody calls me Lesya (my name) or Lesyonok.

JenR · 28-08-2007, 03:02 PM

in highschool, people gave me a lot of names: Hershey, Slim Jen, Jen-Jen, J-Ro, Freak, Nymph.

dont ask about the last two i really don't know why i was called that. :icon_roll

mongoose · 28-08-2007, 03:30 PM

People call me Andy, even it's not my real name so it counts as a nickname, but I was also called Mafia at a time.

You remind me about one girl. Guys called her Village Mafia because of her accent. Later I named her "Rattle" or "Rattle-box" and she really was it.

mongoose · 28-08-2007, 03:54 PM

From what people said, I used to sound sometimes like a guy from the movie "The Godfather". I didn't saw the film so I have no idea.
And as a question is Lesya your full name or is it just shortcuted ?
