I'm not talking about the one you use here, but what your friends call you (I guess it could be the same)....

Remember, a nickname is EARNED not just something you like to be called. How did you earn it? What stupid (or miraculous) thing did you do?


Mine was 'divit' because of my grace on the golf course..... :)

Mine's "clamum" or "clamam."

I have a Chevy Lumina, and it used to get clammed a lot. So it was the Clamina. My name is Adam, so that got changed to "clamum" or "clamam." Haha :) Doesn't get clammed anymore really but I still hold the name.

Lola

Mine was Lola. I got it in HS. I was a theatre geek and i guess some of my friends thought i acted like "lola", a character in a musical called "damned yankee's". This woman was um.... manipulative in a good way, she got what she wanted, etc. so as a joke, they started calling me that!

Fish

I play hockey, and one night I decided to wear one of those hats with the fish head coming out of the front and the tail coming out of the back. I have no idea what has happened to the hat, but the name has stuck.

In high school it was "Big Dick"

Reason?
My first name is "Richard", and according to my drivers license I'm 5'7" and 125LBs. (I really should update that)

They call me MILF master!

The only real nickname I ever had came from my college roommate who called me B.

I don't have a nickname... different people call me different things. One guy used to call me Batman because I tried to say that Batman wasn't gay.

Multiple choice:

or

2) High school nickname

Which is it?

I'm either Spaghed or Yed. There was a song that kids used to sing to taunt me back in elementary school that went:

"Eddie Spaghetti
With the Meatball Eyes
Put Him In the Oven
And Make French Fries"

Well, my older sister heard about it and thought it was hilarious, so she started calling me spaghetti. Then it was shortened to Spaghed. Then my sister had kids and her daughter couldn't say Spaghed when she was younger, so she shortened it to Yed. And that's what I remain to this day in my family and to most of my friends: Spaghed or Yed.

I'm actually not sure why my friends gave me the nickname of Kemosabe...but they did, and I got the nickname of Who because of the weird friends that I have

I have a couple, derived from my name (Paige). One is (Spanish pronunciation) Pagina (Pa-hee-na), the Spanish word for paper. People tend to call me Paiger, which then evolved into Beeper. *shrugs and smiles*

Skip or Skippy

I guess I was skipping to the bathroom the one day during my freshmen year of high school. I was embarrassed but the name has stuck and even my walmart nametag says skippy on it. I prefer being called skip over Jeff now and it's rare to be called Jeff by any of my friends.
