Great Nicknames

Anyone else have people that they have known that just deserved a really good nickname, and when you finally came up with one it was good enough that it stuck, and the person actually answered when you called them that name?

I had a drummer in a band years ago that I started calling GOMER. Before long, the whole band, and even his girlfriend started calling him Gomer, or Gomes for short:sifone: The name just fit him.

Had another guy that was always acting like a badazz, and never did anything about it, started calling him TOUGHSKINS one drunken night when I was tired of hearing about what a badazz he was as he was puking, (after the courderoy (sp?) pants from the 70's) and it stuck.

A guy that used to work for me in Pittsburgh, LURPEE. I'm not sure how I came up with that one, but it stuck, and was just hilarious when you yelled LURPEE on a jobsite and he came running.

Anyone got anything good?
 
Best one I ever heard- Used to work with this guy who LOVED Quaaludes. Stoned all the time. We called him Ludeman. People were actually surprised to find out it wasn't his real last name. Mike Ludeman. People would call for him and ask for him by name.

Another- The local catholic church's property abuts our allotment. My neighbor has a big spread behind the priest's residence and the priest would often wander back during our evening bonfire/beer sessions to say hi and mooch food. Well, he retired and they got a new guy. I immediately started calling him Father Newguy. It stuck. To the point that people were calling him that thinking that was his real name. Including my wife's best fried who called him that to his face. And she's a very proper, uptight broad. As you can imagine, she's not that fond of me.
 
Had a buddy in HS that we all called GONZO.
Not because he was crazy, (he was actually the tamest of the bunch) he just had a really small head, and a big nose. Kinda looked like Alan Alda from the old MASH days.
I'm sure I could call him today and ask for GONZO, and he'd answer.
 
1. Had a buddy in college that chit himself while throwing up: Mr. POOPYPANTS
2. Another buddy...always got the chicks: Russell the LOVE MUSCLE
3. A 5'2" friend of mine who was so cheap in college he would charge you a beer if you wanted 2 of his mustard packetes: LB aka LITTLE B!TCH
4. Guys last name was Anjoli. Somebody decided it sounded like "handjob." that was his nickname throughout college...even to chicks he hooked up with.
5. A guy named Brett had at least 10 nicknames: Bert, Butt, Biff, Boner, Chet, Chester the child molester, sir tightpants...
6. A roomate with the last name Cunniff : ****sniff


I could go on and on. We also nicknamed girls. I gave this one girl 2 nicknames after I found out she banged two of my buddies in one night(they didnt know they did this until the next morning). Slam Pig & Cockhopper - she transferred the next semester.
 
had a buddy who's nickname was "catfish" since he was a kid, one night at the bar he stood on top of the stool ,grabbed his crotch and talked incoherently for ten minutes, overnight he became "pee pee mumbles":rofl:
 
My foremans name is Pat. Over the years he started getting called Pappy. A few years ago he crawled out from under a machine at work with grease smeared across his face and I just happened to walk up with a few other guys standing around and called him pappy smear. Since then he has been commonly known as Pap Smear, or P.Smear for short.

Rumor has it he got thrown off a bridge because he lost his usefulness (not sure if that is a quote from the fiance).
The body was never found.

We have a city councilman named Rob Ludeman. You have me wondering....

I know a Sr. Beyotch, (her own name for herself) and Sr. Mary Margarita. :)

Besides... your wife's friend at least said "Father" Newguy. :D
 
WE had a friend who talked non-stop...everybody called him Megaphone, another friend we called Turbo. had a girlfriend who came from Alaska..called her my "tundra queen" one day..we shortened it and everyone called her T.Q....
 
one of the bar owners down here got locked up in the loony bin (bi-polar/cocaine) he was on the third floor ,so he tied his sheets together and descended , he was 12' feet in the air and out of sheet,so he dropped the last bit and broke both ankles and was captured.
he became known as "two sheets" as in two sheets short of the ground.:sifone:
 
Have an employee that is a great kid, albeit a little slow sometimes and he loves to quote his mother's wisdom. Another employee nicknamed him "Forrest" as in Forest Gump. Well 5 years later customers still ask how is "Forrest" doing......

Kid in the 8th grade sh!t his pants.......the name "loader" was born. 10 years later even his mom was calling him "loader"

Had a Brazilian boss at a valet lot in college....took his career/position way way too seriously. His name was Ricardo, of course we named him "retardo" and it stuck. His english wasn't great and to his face he wouldn't take it as an insult but rather a mistake in pronunciation. He couldn't understand why no one wanted to be the $12 an hour supervisor when we made $6 plus tips (in downtown Lauderdale on the beach). $200 cash nights were the norm on Fri/Sat.......
 
A good friend of mine we call Snacho. His brothers name is Joe and so is his dads, so he would answer the phone and say its "not Joe" which turned into Snacho.
 
A girl I used to see started seeing a guy named Pat. I always asked her if Pat My D!ck was there. :)

I think she just married him. :ack2:
 
Played rugby with a guy who went by the nickname "Duke" and his younger brother started playing with us. We called his brother "Subduke". Always one of my favorite nicknames...
