Nick Names

[JOES66FURY]

Whose got one?

I never had one really except inside the family. Everyone has a nick name, My aunt Kim is Tank/My mom is Sissy/Uncle Carl is Billy and uncle Frank is Buzzard. My cousins are Sean and Nicole, Homer and Niki-Jean repectively...

I am know as Junior...

I had other relatives and friends of my dad called Hoss, Meatball, Chink, The Greek...

[Thumpin455]

My dad is known as Walking Eagle... too full of shit to fly. I use my nickname on here, its a rabbit thing.

[Scott Liggett]

My Grandmother called me Scott Owen, it took ten seconds for my uncle to shorten it to ScottO. It stuck. In HS, I got Wildman because I got pulled over in driver's ed doing 87 in a 55.

Most people who don't really know call me Scotty. I don't respond to it when it leads to the enevitable Beam me up Scotty jokes. Always hated Scotty mainly it shows a lack of imagination, or knowing the person you're calling the name.

Big Al
Black Al(cause I'm always wearing black)
Al Dawg(cause a lot of times back in the day I tell people I'd seem them later and then never show up)
Rupert J. Homes..........(I'll let the imagination run with that........)

Ya there were a few..........

It seems that nicknames just appear out of nowhere. There was a guy here years ago that We called Doc, it happend one night when we were eating lunch and a guy said "hey, you know, you look just like Dr. Strangelove" that was it...Doc stuck

We had a dude here when I was a young pup that would create a nickname for people and they always stuck, there was Hot Pants, Book Worm, Crusty..whatever he came up with always stuck....I asked him once why I never got one...he said nothing he could ever come up with fit...

I had 2 nicknames in the Navy. Great Lakes people called me Wildwood. Started on the softball field and carried on to the party's that followed. (Last name is Harwood) Then in Norfolk they called me Dr. Destructo. They would tell me to get rid of some equipment and I would destroy it.

They would tell me to get rid of some equipment and I would destroy it.

Yeah, I had a knack for making unauhorized spare parts "vanish" before a inspections and audits...I have made "bad" parts "worse" to ensure I wont have to deal with them again...it takes skill and cunning.

[realsteelfreak]

My friends I work with call me Goat, the one I use to work with called me Two Dog, and a few friends now call me Kong, all long stories.

[JOES66FURY]

the long stories are the best part of the nickname....

Tag, Sasquatch, "Oh, that asshole", Ron Jeremy.

[BluLightning]

High school friends and my Dad call my Bubba.

[Monk]

Monk........have had it since I was about 7 yrs old.....around 1956.

I'd climb up into a neighbor's tree......older oak and pretty high up........and stay
for awhile.

They started to call me 'monkey'..........later Monk stuck and still am greeted by that
today when I run into old classmates.
My teachers even would call me by that name.

[Caveman Tony]

I have been 'caveman' since one of my buddies freshman year saw how well I played basketball.

It really stuck when folks got to know my occasional penchant for beating something into/out-of shape with a wooden club.


been called 'crash' now & then, mostly because I tend to bump into more things than most when drunk.
