My name is David

Im fairly new. Been here maybe 3 months. Is the "big dave" nickname a pity thing or what? Is it because Im the new guy? Why do people say this?
 
BEER ME BIG DAVE.

if you don't want to be called it, just say david will do.

you're big, people fear the giants.

People say this all the time "Big Tim" "Big Pat"

Now that would just piss me off 🙂
 
If it makes you feel any better, I used to work with two Pauls, and we called one Fat Paulie.
So it could be worse.

Ooooohhhh...dude, that's nothing negative. It's just the way some people talk. A guy at work calls everyone "Chief".

Heh. I think "Dave" is one of those names that just goes well with "big". Some names do, some don't.

Big Dave = cool
Big Delbert = not cool
Big Moe = cool
Big Maurice = not cool
Big John = cool
Big Jordan = not cool
Big Bertha = cool
Big Brittney = not cool

By the way, my neighbor goes by "Big Dave". Even his wife calls him that. Not just "Dave", but always "Big Dave". And he's not all that big. As far as I can tell, anyway.

Also, there's this one annoying guy in my office that walks my once a week and says, in a real deep voice: "Biiiggg Jimmmmmm. How's the twins?" (my name is Jim)

 
A place I once worked at had two guys named Jose. So one guy was called Jose, the other guy was called "Hose B".

It can be worse.

Big Jim and the twins. It took me a while to figure it out (because I'm old now and not as hep as I used to be) but it refers to the male reproductive equipment.
