penny_for_your_thoughts
My real name is Victoria, so my nickname is Vicky. Nothing special. But I prefer to be called Vicky anyway, because I don't really like Victoria. dry.gif
Ygraine
I've already mentioned my one 'Bing' but i have another one now.

'Pee-Wee' Pernament Winge it's short for. My winging is rather Infamous (normally because it's cold) another one that's gone rather stale was Myrtle, as in Moaning Myrtle.

Oh well rolleyes.gif

Still hate Bing the most. dry.gif
Miseria
Well my real name is Laryssa but ever since I was a baby my family always called me Sissa (Sis for short) and some of my friends call me Lar or Jonesie (my last name being Jones).
penny_for_your_thoughts
My mom told me once upon a time that when she told some lady she worked with that my name is Victoria, the lady laughed. Just laughed, like it was funny or something. Even though I was a little kid when that happened, I am like still outraged. Is my name funny? Do any of you think my name is funny? I'll answer for you: No. That is why I don't like "Victoria." That is why I like "Vicky."
secretkeeper
My freshman year, I was playing in a basketball game and I got a steal and i took it all the way for a dunk and the next day at school they started calling me 'superman' and stuff like that and I am still called that even in classes by the teachers. My most favorite nickname of all time has to be double trouble because in grade school I got into big trouble and the principal kept calling me 'double trouble' and she still calls me by that. No one has ever called me by my real name except my parents, but I like it like that. Here, you can just call me 'secret'.
slytherinlvr
My friends have given me another nickname. I think five of my friends decided on this nickname and it just stuck. My new nickname is Momo. I have no clue why they gave me that nickname but they just did.
sHeRyL

sher (shorter version of sheryl)
sherry (sheryl without the "L")
siopao (pronounced sho-pow, my favorite filipino food)
sherylishus (i dont know why)
funny bunny (a big "i dont know why")

thats just to name a few. there are too many to list. dry.gif
RavenMist

It was: Ham Sannawich laugh.gif Good times.
Liquid Luck
My full name is James Matthew Jamison, but I go by Matt. When some of my close friends found out my first name was James, they started calling me Jimmy. Sometimes people call me Harry Potter because I kind of look like him a bit... See?

keepstar1331
Hmm so i've been branded with a new nicknames since college started...

Joey, i dunno i think it's because im obsessed with joe jurevicius. My room is covered in pictures right now.

Wip. I guess its short for wipe out. I was skimboarding and i totally ate it. Sand up everything. i just lay there on the sand, stunned, in pain, as my friends laughed their wet suits off.

HaRRYPoTTeR FReaK
Hmm... My nicknames? Well, my closest friends call me Prongs. (I am so much like James you have no idea, lol.) Some of my other friends, more distant ones, call me Maymay, though hardly anyone nowadays, I'm thouroghly known as Prongs, even my teachers call me that! My family members call me HarryPotterFreak, and of course my name, Amanda... I just got the name Prongs because of my personality.
kongmoo
You know when you have them people and you hear them being called by nicknames and your like how on earth did they get them nicknames I am one of them people! I have such random nicknames but it's probably because I do the most random things!

My nicknames
Adds - I get called this because it started off as Adam as everyone used to call me this when I came out in an Adam and the Ants jacket and then it got shortened to Adds. But only like 5 people call me this now.

Tootsie - This is so embarrising and I wish people would stop calling me it now but it's one that like most people in my class call me, because of an embarrising thing where I ended up nibbling someone's toe Don't blame me blame the drink at the party

And Ancs as in like an anchor long story but it's something only a select few call me tongue.gif
Leptine
my classmates call me "jaakko" or "jazzo" cause my first name is Jacopo.

Some other friends call me "bamboo" but i CANNOT explain why in this contest( it's stricktly personal).
Another nick is Maffo because of my Surname "Mattei".

my last girlfriend called me "bussolotto" (a neologism created by her but I've never understood what it meant...) dry.gif

I was forgettin! two years ago my nick was "Oliver Wood" cause I really looked like him (you know: the same haircut etc..)
Lovely Traces
I've got quite a few nicknames cool.gif .

1) Cuh.essa
2) Essa
3) Mrs. Christian .... (won't give out my future last name wink.gif )
4) Boo
5) Eskimo (all thanks to a picture of me in an eskimo-like jacket)
GinevraPotter
This is a really funny thread, I like learning about everyone else's nicknames. I thought it would be kind of stupid not to give my own, so here goes... biggrin.gif

1) Mario...my best friend came up with that one. Some best friends are like Laverne and Shirley, others are like Betty and Veronica...but Katie and me? Mario and Luigi. I'm Mario because I'm shorter than her and more Italian. wink.gif

2) Bizz...I've been that one since 7th grade. My friend TJ out of the blue pointed at me and said "You're Bizz" and then at my friend Hillary and said "You're Atchi." Bizz-atchi, how clever. rolleyes.gif However, Bizz caught on, and he still calls me that to this day.

3) Chief...This one I'm particularly fond of, considering my young gentleman called me this alot. He had a lot of odd variations of similar names (Cosmo, Clatch) for his girl friends, but I'm quite sure I'm the only one who has ever been Chief.

4) Inspector Midget...My other best friend Victoria got this one. While trying to solve "a mystery" we decided to come up with detective names. She got away with "Dr Soup", named generously by me, but I earned "Inspector Midget" due to my vertical deprivation. tongue.gif I'm like 5'3, 5'4?

Edit: Just for clarity, anywhere under 5'5 is considered short in my general vicinity. I don't know what it is, but most of my friends are very tall. There's really no 'average' height- you're either tall or you're short. I happen to be short. But that's ok.

Well, I'm sure there are plenty more, but I've got school soon. If I think of any more during the day, I'll check back. wink.gif

I have only one nickname.

Hantta- My mother has call me that when I was kid. It has been very long time my nickname and I like it. In school my teacher calls me only Hantta becouse I have very long name and it sounds weird hear my real name.
Feeder
Well my name is John and my middle name starts with an 'O', and I also have two other friends named John so most people call me JohnnyO.

Almost all my friends have nicknames as well:

Evan- we call him Ev-Man, I dunno why, we just do.

Chris- we call him Brit because he's British (no offense to all the other British people on this forum) it's just a little joke.

Matthew- streg or streger because his last name is streger.

Jonathan- we call him JT because his first name starts with 'J' and his middle name starts with 'T'

I would type out the rest but I'm just too lazy tongue.gif .

Well, my name is Tiffany. Before my mom had me, she had a dog named Tiffany, so when I was born she changed the dog's name to Tiffer. So my uncle started calling me Tiffer to annoy me and it caught on. I also have a friend named Charity that we always call Songhi. Not really sure why though... hehehe...
Hermione 14
Well, my name is Kelly, so a lot of my friends call my Kell, but when I was little some people called me Kellbell, luckly that one has just about worn off. People also call me Grace, because I lack garcefulness, unfortunately that one has stuck lol

Cool, we share a name! wink.gif

My name is Tiffany, and the reason it's my name is because my sister's name is Stephanie, and my mom thought to use it, seeing as to how according to the news, they were both the two names of most use in the world. Up until the 5th grade, teachers called me Tiffany H. because of my middle name and since there was also another girl who had the same first & last name as I did. However, nicknames would be Tiff, Tiffy (only one person's allowed to call me that), and Youngin' (only three people are allowed to call me that). Oh, and if you count my sister's, my nickname is Dude. dry.gif
felix_felicis_444
hmmmm...interesting nicknames you guys have... tongue.gif LOL...

My name is daviD...so I have the traditional "Dave"...I actually hate it. Only my father and my uncle call me Dave..everybody else except my mother and sister call me "David."

To shorten David (its so short already, why make it shorter!?), my mom and sister call me "Day" biggrin.gif ...
Also, my initials spell out DEW, so my mom use to sometimes calls me "Dewey" *barf* ukkgghh bleckh I HATE IT! haha

But you guys can call me anything...daviD preferably tongue.gif

Gryffindor Rock Chick
My name is Ginevra. I am usually called Ginny. My aunt calls me Guinivere and my grandmother calls me Genevieve. I am also known as Gin or Gin Gin.
Draco_Malfoy
my name is Jennifer, so i get called Jen. My best friend calls me Jen-Jen. I also get called Jenny from the block, Trouble, Get Off my Aisle Girl, and Missy
Jojobear
My name is Lesly. Some people call me Les, and others Lez (emphasis on the "s"). Also, my middle name is Jo, so my uncle calls me Jeslylo (switch the first letters of each). My friend dubbed me Jojobear last year, and it stuck (apparently, duh)! Except now, she either calls me Jojo or Jo, depending on her mood! And, of course, there's always the southern version of my name, which is saying both names quickly (Lesly Jo!).
harry4_LyF
Oooh, some of mine: (My name's Nyrie)

Nay Nay- My cousin's friend made that up because...well I dunno.

Esheg (In Armenian it means donkey)- I got that because I was being a pain in the but so my brother gave me that one.

Ree-We were making up nicknames for each other so we came up with this one.

Spazz- Me and my best buddy are nicknamed this because we are spazzes.
pinkdiamond
My name's Sara. Now I know what your thinking, but it's pronounced differently. People usually pronounce it "se-ra" but mine is pronounced. "Sah-ra." To better explain, for example, the first syllable in the word "saucer", "sau", is what my name sounds like. And the "ra" is just..."ruh"...

So its like Sau-Ruh..happy.gif I just thought I'd clear it up. Whenever someone reads my name, they say "sera" and I correct them, but obviously I should have spelled my name differently to prevent mispronounciations.

My nickname (and I totally hate it) is Shaya (shy-uh). My dad has been calling me it since I was born, and I have no idea where he got it from. It's really embarressing *blushes*

Other nicknames: Dumpling, Miss Attitude, and Blushina (I can get really red sometimes)... tongue.gif
zelda_snape
I have so many nicknames!!! My real name is Tabitha. Iamb called Tab, most of the time, Tabs, Bade, Ithica, Itha, Tab-dab-do, Kitty, Taburoos, and so many others I can't even name them all!!! :loll: I don't get embarrassed, I think it's kind of funny what people can make up!
mfkcool
i dont have a nickname! sad.gif sad.gif my name is mary, and i try to think up a nickname, but i cant come up with one. can anyone help me!! ohmy.gif

----------------------------

i think my name is too short though
Witch@Heart
My name is Danielle, but no one really calls me by my first name--except for my professors that is. Usually my friends and family like to call me Dee or Deedee; some call me Red since I'm a redhead; my mother likes to call me Weezie (which is a nickname for my middle name, Louise); my roommate likes to call me Irish...I call her Jamaican--for some reason we decided to call each other by out dominant nationalities...it's a bit of an inside joke..

...and there's probably a number more that I'm forgetting...
*SexiStan*
i get called frankee people used to call me fran but i didnt like it laugh.gif

Mod Edit- Please check out the forum rules- one liners aren't allowed on the forum. Please elaborate more in the future
gryffin_hauz_88
Well, I have several nicknames, too. But the most often my friends call me is Sherma, derived from my two names, Sheree Mari. But some just call me Sheree or just Shê. When I was in high school, my friends used to call me Shenggay... But I still prefer Sherma... tongue.gif

Then some of my friends call me "ice breaker" because that's what I do when there are boring moments... I'm breaking that... biggrin.gif
Mrs. Radcliffe
Well my nickname doesn't have Anything to do with my real name. My name is Liezl, in Afrikaans my family calls me "Muis", which means "Mouse". (Hope I'm not breaking any rules!)

My friends calls me any of these three:

1. DanFan
2. Mrs. Radcliffe (No, really!)
3. Anything else to do with like Dan or Potter etc.

DanFan. Yeah! laugh.gif

Mouse. No! mad.gif
Slaine mac Roth
My main nickname at work is Frodo - I got this a couple of years ago when I went, along with my wife, to see Return of the King five times at the cinema.

Just lately, though, some of the maintenance lads have started to call be Harry (probably due to the fact I wear similar style glasses).
mxnhpfreak
You are sooo gonna laugh at me... but here I come:

My real name is Claudia, but I have like a thousand nicknames:

yaya-- I don't even know where did this came from, but that's the way my sisters call me, specially the one who is just 5 years old. I reckon it is easier for her to say 'yaya' than Claudia.

booboo-- remember the little bear of "Yogi the Bear"? well... my godfather calls me like that... and I call him Yogi! and I call my godmother Cindy! tongue.gif

cabis-- my aunts from my dad's family call me like that and I don't know why... I guess it is kind of an abbreviation for Claudia...

bey/bellita-- mum sometimes call me like this... My middle name is Esbeidy so...

daria-- this is one of my favourites... remember the cartoon from MTV? well according to my classmates in jr high school, that's me. rolleyes.gif

I guess that's all... I can't believe I am sharing that with you! but...

I know it will be a laugh for some of you! laugh.gif

I guess that's all...
Nightmare
i've got over 20 nicknames. mostof them i can barely remember, but my favorites are-


Wolf Junkie
Wolfie
Wolf Woman
Howler
Princess of Darkness
Rowling_is_my_hero
I have a lot of nicknames. Mostly from my dad. He gives everyone nicknames. When I was little he called me Janna Banana, Janna McGee, Janna Marie Sweetpea. This all evolved into either Sweetpea, or JB. I am now 20 years old, and he still calls me sweetpea. My friends call me Banana. That has kind of stuck for a while. Nicknames are kind of fun. I like them a lot.
HaRRYPoTTeR FReaK
My nicknames are kind of weird, so brace yourself here!

(Oh, and this <3 is supposed to be a heart. That's the best I could do...)

One of my 2 best friends, Cassie (short for Kassandra) and I write notes in class and pass them between classes at school. She always signs hers "<3always, Cassie" and I always sign mine "<3always, Prongs". Cassie knows how obsessive I am over Harry Potter, and I told her about the Marauders, and she said I was most like James (funny - that's the answer I got on the "Which Marauder are You?" quiz too!). So she gave me the nickname Prongs after "my" Marauder.

My friend Lauren always calls me Manderz (because my name is Amanda) and this one girl calls me Maymay. Really annoying. dry.gif

My grandpa calls me a bullfrog, no idea why. rolleyes.gif

My other grandpa calls me pumpkin, but he's got a bit of a southern accent, so it sounds like "punkin". laugh.gif

My mom calls me her ladybug, ever since I could remember, but I dunno why. She also calls me a whole bunch of other things just to annoy me, like "lizard lips" or "sugar bear". My mom is totally weird like that, but I love her to death! laugh.gif

So those are my unusual nicknames. And Nightmare, Wolf Junkie is a wicked-awesome nickname! wink.gif

-->amanda

P.S.
My other best friend is Kaitlyn, her username is humble house elf. Love ya Kaity! biggrin.gif
Jimmy Jaguar
Let's see here- there are only a couple that I know of. I'm called Wags because that's what people call Wagners nowadays (that's my last name, in case you didn't know). My father called me (and at times stiil does) Matty Coda, after the bat in Ferngully. I think it was because Batty Coda is catchy, and Matt can fit right in there. And that about raps up my nickname list.
Thegirlwholived
My nickname is Pig because my surname is 'Zhu', which means pig.



MOD NOTE: Hi there. smile.gif Please refrain from posting one-liners in the forums as they are against the rules. Thanks.
