People (mainly teachers, wtf) used to call me Austin Powers when I was growing up. I fucking hated it.
Whenever customers do this at work, I stop and laugh, telling them they're incredibly original. If they get upset, I just them that I am offended, and that I would never make a pun on a persons name if I didn't know. Shuts em up.
Though I usually don't mind being called Stone Cold (Steven Austin).
I forgot about this thread. But I'm retarded like that. Best nicknames so far:
X-105
Skeletor
Turbo
Sensei Nemo (that effing rules!)
Diamond Dave
Fat Hubbard
Commie (props to Arjue for having two awesome ones)
Hardcore King of 18th Street
Rico
The best real name in this thread is Dick Lawless. I'd like to Indian leg wrestle that guy.
Items of note: You can't give yourself a nickname. If your name is Laurence you can't just say "from now on I'd like to be referred to as Big Willie". That's weak. And as far as I'm concerned real life nicknames should never come from the computer. Just because your Video D&D team calls your well hung Paladin "The Dangler" doesn't mean you can claim that shit as a nickname.
I forgot that my one buddy constantly calls me D-Bone. I fucking hate that.
And HAY! I am a regular nicknamesmith. Check out some of my friends:
Grant = The GRZA
Chip Butters = P-nut
Jay Russell = Russellmania IV
my dog Jade = Jadius III
Shyla = Shy-Town
Ugh, there's more but I'm brainfarting. Have you all assigned people any wicked awesome nicknames IRL?
I have a friend I named Beer Nips. It stuck.
Also a Kristina called Special K.
Keep up the good work. I'm trying to reach a point where none of my friends even know each others' real names.
Also: a friend of mine used to call me Austin Texas Chainsaw Miracle. He had done a lot of drugs.
I too know a person with this nickname. She is pretty "beat", as they say.Quote:

Russellmania IV is awesome.
The worst one I've been stuck with is "Taint".
I've been "Tater".
More recently it's been:
M-Titty
M-Tit
Michael W. Tit-tit
M. W. Tit-tit
At one of my jobs it's "Rip-Van Tate".
At another job it's "Big Guy".
I have a friend I named "Rebeccapuss". It also stuck. She hates me for it. :DQuote:

Capussington. Sounds like an animated stuffed animal or something.
And I'd like to thank SapphirePhoenix for reminding me of the word twat today. Because my landlord's best friend is named Atsu. He pissed me off one time and has been Twatsu ever since. I felt clever.
I have found that little kids LOVE when adults give them cool sounding nicknames.Quote:

Through clenched teeth and in between sniffles he told me he could keep going.
Normally I push the kids pretty good if I think they are faking, but he ate fairly, and most adults would've been done for the day.
I told him he was unstoppable like the Terminator and that's what I still call him to this day. He's mighty proud of it.
We also have a kid that looks exactly like Sakuraba, so I call him little sakuraba, which probably three people on TNL will understand haha. The little kid doesn't know what it means either.
