Hi. Bring some smiles by sharing friends' nicknames you remember from school years. Or workplace if preferred.

Funny, cruel, near offensive, ugly, nasty, from all of them around you along the years...

 

Will let you start this time.

College: Stouffer

Navy training: Puft (it was 1984, if that helps place it)

I was called turtle for a while, then snake, then Moondog, and now of course Moontanman...

first rajoo and now google and lalan

Thank you for making me feel better about my own age

 

Navy Training 2002, D-Bone, D-money.

 

Endy, came from Indy when there was naming conflict with 'myself' on a message board. Ordinarily untaken though think I have finally run into an inevitable naming conflict with the RL scientist Drew Endy. He's a good sort though and is welcome to it.

I have to ask, does your nickname relate to the moon, a mountain or both? I have found assumption can do a number on nickname meaning. More than a few mistake my name for some sort of Endymion reference.

He has a habit of running around naked at night... Or, at least he used to.

I have had the same one since I was 4 within my family, which I loathe and will not repeat. I have also had a flat mate who used to call me K-dog, though since he left to travel the globe the most common ones have been Kyles or Kywala (as in koala).

how can you resist the madness

 

how can you dance but clad in the sky?

Oops... English being my third language and probably improper grammar on the first post somehow steered the nicknames toward your own; which was not the intention; rather the nicknames your friends had, and worth mentioning for a laugh; but disclosing yours won't harm much the egos, I think.

 

'Venom' - this guy was unruly

'Half-a-cow' - a fat kid from a couple of grades below

'Nikita' - Looked alike the soviet leader

'Gumhoof' - had a problem in one foot

 

 

Me, was called 'sad balls' after a football landing where should not.

Then, 'Nobody' for a while like some western movie character

Then, I was called 'Myway' for another while, as I do things...

When I was in high school I jokingly called a friend Pugsley (character on The Addams Family). Being socially consious she quickly grabbed my arm and said "Knock it off! Names like that stick!".

 

To this day, people are still calling her Pugsley. And she is in her 50s. And she is still mad at me.

Well i managed to get moondog hung on another friend, snake and turtle were high school and jr high school names, I have a friend we called yahoo way before there was a Yahoo, I still have a hard time remembering his real name even when we are face to face, yahoo fit him so perfectly...

A friend of by brother's was called 'dirt'. It was short for 'dog dirt', and he got the name because failed to bathe on a regular basis.
