Bit of Friday fun, nick names you've come across over the years - I'll start off:

At some do many years ago and I get chatting to a group of lads who introduce themselves, mostly with abbreviations or nick names. Last lad introduces himself as Mono. 'Why do they call you that?' I ask. To which he cocks his head and replies 'Cos I've only got one ear!'

Happy Friday - over to you!

The Mirror Man - a former regional manager, his stock answer for any problem was " I'll look into it"....


Going back to when I was in the scouts in 1988, we went on a 2 day hike in really rubbish weather. We had these all in one rainsuits to wear, like a waterproof onesie with a hood.
One lad went into the bushes to do what a bear normally does, and squatted down behind a tree, but a few minutes later we hear a commotion and lots of swearing. Turns out when he dropped the rain suit he managed to crap into his hood, but didn't realise this until he pulled it back up...

30 years later, we still great him as "alright sthead"...

Young Mr Grace - slightly doddery chap

Darbs - Rhyming Slang - Darby Kelly - Belly, slim bloke with a newly developed paunch which we traced to eating Donner Meat and chips for lunch every day for some time.

Barrybola - Bloke called Barry at current place of work who is always ill, aka Typhoid Barry.

Dave the Slave - bloke at college who would do anything you told him to.

Dickie The Perv - Bloke I worked with who had an extensive selection of internet porn, AKA "D the P", I bought a hard drive off him and he said "Left a little treat on there for ya", there was a directory with an innocuous sounding name that he had filled with his best stuff, I had a look, his tastes were more adventurous than mine, then forgot about it, it got used and filled, I decided to get a new PC eventually. I sold my old PC and forgot about it, critically I sold it to my auntie who some weeks later asked me to come and remove my stuff, not sure why she couldn't just delete it but guessing she wanted to make me squirm, the dirty little deviant she now thought I was. So my auntie now thinks I am an enthusiastic consumer of scat filth, remembering the series of images on there involving a trifle bowl and no trifle, but a few birds...



Not one I know but read it, bloke called Wayne Bruce who gets called Manbat, which I think is genius.

There's a goalkeeper for one of the smaller teams with the surname Justham. He's been taunted before that he's "just a st Tesco sandwich"

We've nicknamed my mate's father-in-law Goose, after he came on the stag do and turns out that he is an excellent wingman to have around you.

Two years later, my mate's wife still doesn't know why we call her dad Goose, and she has definitely seen Top Gun.

My favourite though is probably Phil "The Power" Taylor. Once I got it, it stuck with me as a good nickname.

Another guy with a very high forehead and pointy crown = atomic warhead

A Hispanic looking bloke with goatee beard, greasy hair and little eyes = the embodiment of evil

Housemate in Uni's proper nickname was Boo (no idea why) but he was also dyslexic so was known in our house as Obo.
