What do people call you?
I was just thinking about the nicknames that people've bestowed upon me, past and present, and I realized that I've gotten called a fair few things by various people.
"Prince," because I remind some Australian kids of the musician who've begun calling my girlfriend "Princess." "Psycho," because I used to be fairly crazy, when I was in the gangs. (Also, a Fight Club reference.) "Poet," because I am one (and stand on the streets, reading poetry for free beer/drugs/cigarettes and to get my stuff heard). "Bastage hoe," because... erm... because a friend likes insulting me. :P So on, and so forth. They've all got a bit of meaning behind them, and I answer to all of them. What names, other than your given one, do you answer to? (P.S., "Jaron" is actually my name.) |

People just call me Brandon. I was called "Whitey" when I was young due to my really blonde hair at the time. Now I'm a dishwater blonde, and am thankful that I don't have a nickname.

My best friends call me Teeny. Cos i'm short and cos it's kinda part of my my name (Justine -> Justeen -> Teeny).
My ex used to call me Cinnabum after an interesting typo in some instant message conversation we had before we started going out. *grin*

My Dad and brother call me Heddie. For Heather. Hubby, when he first heard that thought of "giving head" sort of thing.
When I worked at a window manufacturer. I was posted at a bunker programming the glass sizes into the the glass cutting robot. I also ran a number of errands at the end of my day each day. When the supervisers (one in particular) would call me on the intercom, which was often because of where I usually was, they would call for "Heather Locklear" cause he said he couldn't remember my last name ever. My maiden name was a longer german one. I loved answering the call for Heather Locklear. lol Now I'm rarely called anything but Heather or Moma. Some of our couples that we swing with - the guys have called me tiger. I love that. My Id's at most places is Brulee (often with something extra) since that's one of my most favorite desserts. I love Creme Brulee.

Other drivers surely call me asshole or nimrod on a semi-regular basis... but otherwise, most people just stick by my name.

I get Bud, and Buddy from my parents.
Name is Keith, and when my cousin was little he would call me Keef. Therefore Keefer was dubbed. I got roni from my mom, because of my love for pepperoni, also as a little kid. Same cousin later decided Keister was a good name. Im irish, and during a soccer season, I was on the skins team for practice. Casper was then given... but only my highschool friends keep that one alive. |

"Spare Parts": My "father's" sick sense of humour, when he beat me as a child, he would also call me "spare parts."
"Undertaker": One of my coworkers thought the name went along with my sense of humour. "Apple": no idea how this one came about, it started and ended in high school. "The Kid": came about at work because I was at least 20 years younger than all my coworkers. "Phaedrus": friends started calling me this after they read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, seems I reminded them of his alternate persona. |

Funny... just how movies give you nicks, when friends somehow associate you with them. Any particular reason, other than long hair, that they called you "Space monkey"? |

No, no one has called me water boy. I have been addressed as E-Dog, E, Evy (from mom), P.O.A. (piece of ass) from my office co-horts, and unfortunately got stuck with Scrotum in high school because of my last name. Damn Swedish names!!!!
