Poll: Nicknames

[Aerodynamic]

My name is Arturo, people have a tendency to never say it correctly so we settled with churro, Sounds similar and im Mexican anyway so its a perfect fit.

 

[randomsix]

It's scooter. I'm ambivalent towards it.

 

[Joe Matsuda]

Well...

My name is Joe...last name begins with a "C"...so most of my friends who are chicks call me "Josie"...

but I dont care to much...Josie is a manley nickname, right?

 

[historybuff]

I don't have a real nickname. I kind of wish I did.

 

[Fightgarr]

As certain people I talk to here know, I have a fondness for dragons. And to call it a 'fondness' is to call the universe 'pretty big' (an anology I believe I use a lot, now). Anyway, there are a good deal of people in my life who refer to me by the name 'Dragon'. My roommate and I are both named Simon and some confusion occurs when we referred to out of context. To specify me, they will say 'Dragon Simon'.

In terms of the Escapist, I am referred to as 'Garr or Garr over IRC. Unless you're Iseryn who refers to me as 'Punboy', or unless you're DirkGently who still (or would still, I think) refer to me as 'Sarah'... long story... it involved my daughter getting attacked by a stone labyrinth.

 

[LordGarbageMan]

All my relatives call me the jolly green giant. I am indifferent. I definitely wouldn't make it my username.

 

[Bassman_2]

I want one, one that you all will call me: Master Funkatron LeDuede de Copperskull.

How bout Master Funk for short?

Sadly, "Funk" is already taken by someone here, so at least just Funkatron will do.

Then The Funkatron it is. Or how bout The Funkinator? Just throwing it out.

 

[Foxbat Flyer]

I have a few nick name. My weirdest one was Fish because i had a long fringe, but extreemly short hair all over (Had). But my nickname has always been Blacky, due to my last name being Black. then i altered that to blackanator for my year 12 jersey. Then i started learning to fly in a A22 Foxbat, so i named my self foxbat flyer. Then i needed an alternate name for ingame, so i created a new one, Old Boy Black, even though im the youngest, i feel it suits me well

Edit: I forgot my most recent one... My friends were in 2 car crashes in 1 month, so i nicknamed them smash and crash, then i got caught for speeding (Never gonna do that again) so i got called dash. We now have smash, crash and dash

 

[Sir Kemper]

My current Nickname is Dragon-Slayer.

I got this from some 18 year old in my Grade 9 Geography class, some people still call me it to annoy me, but i've embraced it just to piss them off. It's good fun.

Most people i play with on XLB tend to call me by my gamer tag, or "Stupid Canadian" or "Canad", useually those are the americans though...

 

[brass munkey]

Mine are Bedz and Beast.

 

[ucciolord1]

"Darkness"
...
Fuck my gym class!
I would much rather be Funkmeister McFunky of Funkytown!

 

[TehCookie]

All through elementary school I was called cookie, but in high school people just started using my first name. Since Shelby is so common I began to use Shelby Lynn at work, because Lynn is my middle name.

 

[MorsePacific]

All of my friends just call me "Frango". It's my last name, so I guess that works.

 

[Lady Ravenloft]

My friends nic'd me Lady Starlight after the Scorpions song -I'm a diehard Scorps fan-
and my anime friends call me Stariko

 

[Disaster Button]

Yes, its Squiz and I hate it. It sounds like a sexual disease and is generally not appealing.

Although it sort of evolved into that after it was pointed out I used to look like a squirrel. So yeah.

You can be Disby

Better?

I like it. It sounds like I'm one half of a crime solving duo.

Disby and Wheels. I'd watch that show. Would you like to be Wheels?

Doesn't make sense... But who cares!?

Wheels it is, Disby

The best things in life don't make sense Wheels. You will realise that one day when you finally break free of your handicap and escape your wheel chair. Until then, we have a mystery to solve.

But Disby, you promised your son to come to his karate-training! Are you sure that you want to hunt the killer right now?

We can do both Wheels, for you see, my son is the killer!
dun dun duuunnn

Impossible! He had an alibi! He was with your daughter playing a violent videogame!

Wait.. don't tell me... He used mind-control to use an innocent hobo through the videogame to kill the victim!?

Not quite. He somehow reversed the polarity of the neutron flow inside the TV which caused hypnotic waves to radiate from it incapacitating her into a drooling, vegetative state!

He then left a cardboard cut out of himself, to fool others, and used his Karate Training to Falcon Punch a man in the face who then died!

His sister had no idea and, unbeknownst to her, lied to protect him! So you see, my son really did cause 9/11 kill that guy! Unless he was framed.. do you have any other evidence Wheels?

No, I didn't... or.... Wait! There was chloroform found under your sons bed... But he used the videogame on his sister... Which means that after he went out to kill the man, he was knocked unconscious... IT WAS YOUR WIFE!

But.. I.. That's impossible Wheels, for you see, my wife is dead. Unless.. Oh my god. She's being blackmailed! Yes it all makes sense now. She was blackmailed, and it was SHE who Falcon Punched that guy. Wheels, grab your action shoes we have to go see Old Man Jenkins.

 

[Plinglebob]

I have 2 nicknames. I'm called "Pling" by my close mates as a shortening of the username I use here and everywhere else. My old school friends call me "Plum" because, and I quote, "Your head is shaped like one" It's spherical with a dent in the middle

 

[SamFancyPants252]

I have two, Astroboy and Barney.

 

[Banana Pancake]

Names Connor and I have a few nicknames, though they are not used very often.
They are Condor, Concussion and Conman.

 

[arsenicCatnip]

I have a few:

My handle on the forums is derived from a friend learning of my wish to move to Idaho (Yes, Idaho. And Udaho too). I also use this as my gamertag.

My friends call me "Co" which comes from the fact that I live in Colorado, which is abbreviated CO.

As I hate my given name, I rarely ever use it, so more people call me Co than use my name. Unless I'm at work, where my nickname is 'Ninja' for my habit of moving around unnoticed.
