Do/did you or any of your kids, family or friends have a catchy nickname?

[QUOTE="donna723, post: 665034, member: 1883"] OMG Jabberwockey, I know EXACTLY what you mean! After working in a prison for 24 years, I think I've seen it all! We had an inmate whose legal first name was "Mister", another one whose mama named him "Sir"! My all-time favorite though was this poor inmate whose legal given first name was "Assdot"! Seriously! We had no idea if he had some physical attribute that caused his mom to name him "Assdot", or maybe it was a family name and he was descended from a long line of "Assdots". Either way, you had to almost feel sorry for the guy because his life couldn't have been easy! The nicknames (for both inmates and a few staff!) were the best. We had an officer nicknamed named Radio and another called Cheeser ... long story there. My favorite though was an inmate called "Seaweed". Everybody called him that. He started out as a normal, halfway intelligent guy, then he developed a fondness for inhaling substances like paint thinners and solvents. In a few short years he had turned in to a shambling disheveled bundle of irreversible neurological damages. He resembled the Muppets character Animal. He had long, wild matted hair, eyes that couldn't focus, hands that trembled uncontrollably, and speech you couldn't understand. We always thought they should put him in a little cage and take him around to the high schools as an exhibit for the anti-drug lectures! [/QUOTE]
