Anyone remember those old ESPN commercials with a guy named "The Rick"?

I propose we start calling Nick, "The Nick"

Another Jesus, reporting in.

I've got quite a few online pseudonyms,  but I'd just as soon not start cross referencing them all.  My most recent favorite nic is Dick Largesse.  I've introduced myself as Lance Goodthrust on occasion, as well.

Do you have long hair and a beard? Because I have to admit, I always picture you as looking exactly like your avatar.
Exactly like it. Including the greyscale skin, spiky hair and cigarette affixed to mouth.

No beard,  long hair,  though it hasn't been particularly Jesus-like since I was 18.

But then The Nick would really have to start talking about himself in the third person constantly, and I don't know if The Nick is up for that.

Barry Apples.

Started out as my alter ego and then slowly turned into a nickname at university. It then, some how, spread to work.

My friends are so creative.

And another, practically all of my friends in London called me Jesus, even after I got my hair cut.

Sigz was my nickname back in elementary/middle school, but beyond that I've always just been Ian (in the states at least).

Mimie - A pet name given to me and still used by my ex(es) family... and it has spread... almost everyone who knows me through the family, and a few (females) who don't, still calls me Mimie. Actually her little cousin who came up with it is going to be staying with us for a while... Lol

Cecil- I spent my senior year of high school at an adult ed. During lunch I would sit in the break room while a group of the guys who I had class with would sit and fuck around and shit. I was really shy and never gave them my name... They started referring to me as "guy"... then for some reason they started calling me Cecil. Even when they all got to know me... and I became "class president" (yes... it makes no sense to me either)... I was still refered to as Cecil. Even by the staff at the school. I don't think the students there knew my real name till graduation, because I was a speaker and was introduced by my full name. :lol

Jimmy (or Jimmy Bob) (St. Jimmy) - Given to me by my friend's family.  10 years ago, one of my friend's cousins, who couldn't remember my name but knew it started with J, Started calling me Jimmy or Jim Bob, and it still goes on today. Also it was around the time I was obsessed with Green Day. So yeaaaa

Froppotheweak- errr..... it was given to me in 8th grade by my gf at the time...  She was big into Tolkien... and Froppo was my hobbit name she gave me... Originally was Froppi The Magnificent... but for some reason it got lost in translation. She (and her sister) still refer to me as Froppo. : /

Jay - a nickname that I get called once in a while IRL. Usually when my friend's are too lazy to say my full name (Jeremy).

Jay Rem E - P.E. teacher called me that all through sophomore year of high school. A few peeps I know still today call me that

Pretzel - My last name sounds like Pretzel (Patesel) ... fml
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Skippy - the guys in my high school computer science classes called me that, because everyone else had a nickname that they hated, so they gave me one that I hated too.

Shaggy - my old (favorite) boss used to call me this because whenever I pretended to be mad at her, I'd do this weird voice that apparently reminded her of the Scooby Doo character.

Skinny Boy - my old boss and some of my coworkers used to refer to me by this nickname, largely behind my back.  Because...I'm really skinny.

Me Again - one of my coworkers calls me this because for a while I had to keep calling her for favors, and whenever she'd pick up the phone, I'd say abashedly, "Hi, it's me again."  So she stopped using my actual name.

Those are probably the most interesting ones.

Well, my name is Richard, but most people call me Rich which I guess is technically a nickname. So the nicknames I have are:

Rich
Ariich (really)
RJ (my initials)
Jonesy

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.

I've been called many nicknames during my lifetime. Jewboy, Asshole, Cobra, Sylvester, Tweety.



Though I think my all time favourite is "Anal Seepage McBonerNose".
I felt its length in quite a few places.

Shmev.  I can think of at least 20-30 people who almost always call me Shmev (as opposed to Kevin or Kev, which is what almost everyone calls me).

I was sitting a traffic light blaring Space Dye Vest and next to me in another car was Kevin Moore. And I'll never be open again.
