Any of you got or had a nickname - what and why? Some of my mates at school (years ago) called me Flash - after the dog from the Dukes of Hazzard I think it was more because of the laid back slumbering approach, rather than actually looking like it I gave a schoolmate the nickname of The Moog - as in Willow the Wisp. I have no idea why!

In primary school I was Pickle, because some retard thought it rhymed with Michael.
Nowadays it's Mike, Mikey, Bakes, Baker - any variation on either of my names really.

Beer gut, because I used to have a beer gut, and gearstick because I'll take anything apart and try to fix it. But none have ever really stuck for a prolonged period.

Berni, or Bernard funnily enough. My surname is Manning so it was the obvious way to go at the time I guess. It has stuck with a lot though and I still use it occaisionally. I can't remember the last time though....

Usually just J
Although I was Dino J in Greece. the reason being that I have a reptilian like ridge along my skull. It's normally hidden but with a trip to the hairdressers in Kavos being a luxury that few of us could afford, I took to shaving my head instead and the Dino ridge was revealed.

Oh.
And I was Gippo J at school, because I was a park saaaaaaf boy with hand-me-downs in the same classes as the (posh) kids from The Lawns.

I do like a well thought out nickname. There a few in sport which I reckon are clever
The obvious
Martin Offiah - Chariots
Apparently QPRs Fitz Hall absolutely hates his nickname - One Size
And there's a South African cricketer called Ondecki - nickname is All Hands
Good stuff!

In the 80's I was nicknamed Moley, because apparently when I was younger I looked like the TV character Adrian Mole.
Oh how time changes a man.

I have a such a weird name so I've never really had a nickname. A few people call me Lanzo sometimes, don't know why. Some people call me the Serb to wind me up.
