Spin off thread from the Surname thread .
Whats the best nickname youve come across.Its got to be real tho .Not some mad monicer from your fave rock band.
I'm sticking by 'Two Dads' .The owner of this nickname has a double barrelled French/English surname like Laurent Smythe or something .
When I first heard it I was 'whose this 'Two Dads ' you are onnabout?''
Pissed myself when they told me,, |  |

The cricket club I used to play for in the 80's was great for coming up with nicknames.
One of the openers answered to the name of "Snail" because of his slow scoring rate, a guy who was always owing people money was called "Debts", another guy who was very partial to fast food after the game went by the name of "Kentucky". There was also a lad who was a brilliant cricketer in his own right but who had a father who was something of a local fast bowling legend and was therefore usually referred to as "Son of Ted". |  | | |

Like that.
In one of my old jobs, the ambulance service, nearly everyone had a nickname it was as one would say, par of the course. If you had an odd surname, we would twist them a bit. Worked with a bloke who's surname was Osbalderstone, so he became Oddb@llocks. Another guy was Triptree so he became Stumblebranch. There was some old tart working for us as the story goes, boasted to some [ but not me ] she had rather large nipples so she was called Scammell, after the lude term, nipples as big as Scammell wheelnuts. She was proud of that too. There were many others. Mine was Zen as I was told I had this knack of predicting or making things mysteriously happen before they did. It might have happened a couple of times but the name stuck. |  |

Sorry Ive just remembered my favourite.
''Two Dads '' has been relegated to mumber 2 in my nickname chart.
'Tree'
Back in the 80's in the days of the casual attire one fella down the pub was wearing a pair of brown cords acompanied by a lovely green jumper.
One of the local wags who was on his 2nd purple ohm said 'You look like a tree'
That was that.His name from then on was 'Tree'. | |

My dad worked with an ex soldier who served in Korea. He was a specialist in hand to hand combat and his trick was asking his younger colleagues to come at him with a prop for a knife before showing them how fast he could disarm them whilst promptly getting them in a hold and throwing the unlucky assailant across the warehouse.
Henceforth he was know as "The Thrower" |  | | |

A career in catering has had me working with many different nationalities
Whilst working in an establishment near Heathrow had an Indian chef working with me by the name of Hardeep, he was named "is yer love" which I thought was genius.
A few years later working in Dublin had a Chinese porter working for me called "Hu bin"
We always sang to him uh bin talking in your sleep and he was duly named Sleep. | | | |

Bubs.
Little Indian kid who used to blow spit bubbles all the time if he wasnt doing anything else constructive like.
He started off as Bubbles but ended up as Bubs
He died in a car crash with 3 of his mates aged 18.

F'ck .Getting emotional about Bubs.His older brothers name was Aneel.Us white kids couldnt do that
so it was Annual.I think back now how I used to get on the same bus as him going to my first job ,him going to college.And I was like ahh bollx I have to talk to 'serious ,intense Annual again'. He'd lost his brother FFS..He was intense tho.He ended up getting absolutely massive by weight training before us mortals had even heard of steroids.
Bubs was a star tho.He could do it all.Got on with everyone ,black ,white whatever.Breakdance,play football ,proper bird bandit.He was a good boxer too.
Even his Mum ,a little Indian lady in a sari and his sister called him Bubs.
He was with his mates and the car left the motorway into the trees.They recon everyone in the car was wrecked '
proper mullered ,heads off ,body's caved in but Bubs was unmarked.F'ck I can still remember Annual saying He must of been bobbing and weaving right till the end. F'cking sad.
RIP Bubs. | |

At work years ago, I joined a new team. They all kept referring to 1 guy as "decaf"
Which I assumed was a coffee reference
Turned out it was DKAFE - " Doesn't Know Arse From Elbow"
Not sure if this was original or is a well known nickname, but it's always stuck with me.
Also know a group of blokes who all have nicknames except for "no-nickname Dean" [Post edited 26 Jul 2014 5:56]

Went to end of season fans game at loftus rd a couple of years ago, was in springbok after the game when I overheard a classic conversation between to old boys, one said to the over "ere I haven't seen kunt face around in a while have you?" Other guy replied, "no I can't remember the last time I saw kunt face," they then called the barmaids over and asked her if kunt face had been in recently. By that point I realised this was actually some old boys nick name lol, still cracks me up, only in the springbok. | | | |

That just reminded me of a bird in Bracknell circa 1983, was at a fancy dress party when a bloke in a coppers outfit used his truncheon as a dido on her, from that day on she was known as truncheon, also another girl was known as smella Kunt which was a direct rhyme of her name, and she gave out more blow jobs one night than that bird in magaluf.

Many years ago I finally got my wish of being asked along to one of my older brothers days out to Brighton with him and a group of his mates. As the train pulled in to Three Bridges station they prepared to do their usual of opening the doors and jumping off the moving train onto the platform, so me being keen to impress the group, decided I'd go first for my first ever jump. With no fear and the train still doing a respectable jump off speed, I opened the door (as you could in those days) and did my virgin jump. Unfortunately nobody had told me and I embarrassingly wasn't aware that upon landing you had to literally hit the ground running so whilst the jump was impressive, on landing and planting both feet I preceded to fall arse over tit, look a complete knob infront of and much to the delight of everybody and from that moment on I was known as Action Man.
