Funny Nicknames

[MartytheMartian]

I don't get 'Tug' for Wilson... Been given that nickname in the past. For some reason most folks have never tried to give me a 'nickname' (at least to my face) and the closest I have ever come to one that has sort of stuck is 'Big Yin'. I was once known for a while as 'Farmer' because my parents thought it would be a hoot to give me the middle name Giles and folks found out.

Nicknames wot I've known -

Scary - Mechanic at Tam's Brig Bike Breakers simply because his name was Scott Cary hence his mail was addressed to S. Cary
Dusty - A driver I worked with whose surname was Miller
Chalkie - a half caste guy whose surname was White
Stretch- A six foot eight skinny guy I was at school with.
Smash'n'Grab - A guy called Rab who had a past as a bit of a burglar.
Speedy - The slowest man in the West

Kero Blackett..... an Army chef whose food was actually well cooked but always infused with the paraffin flavour of the No 1 burner he used on exercise. No other chef could poison a meal like him.

You dug a shallow trench then stuck this in the end of an iron tunnel on which you could sit 3 or 4 big pots. They were lethal in the wrong hands! Phased out donkeys years ago.....

Just remembered one from my teenage years, when I was knocking about on mopeds, an older brother of a mate lost a testicle in an accident on his GT380, don’t know the full circumstances just that he came out of hospital minus one of the boys. Anyway lads being lads he ended up being nicknamed Uncle Bulgaria, coz he was a Womball

 

[The Departed]

^^^^ Mine was Hitler and oneball - they used to sing "Barny has only got one ball, the other..... Etc". Kids eh, street

 

[Big Sandy]

Neighbours new name is "Dunny". He's usually outside, and he's full of shit

 

[smib]

Ive always been called "Monty" since secondary school.
Not really sure why?
But like to think its because my todger was like a python

I don't get 'Tug' for Wilson

It's after a WW1 Admiral of the fleet, Sir Arthur Knyvet Wilson.

Wilson's nickname of 'Tug' reputedly comes from an incident when he repeatedly ordered a battleship to try to come alongside, and in exasperation offered her captain a tug to assist.

They also called him "old 'ard 'art" because he didn't give a damn about his officers and men.

He was briefly first sea lord, but apparently he was' abrasive, autocratic, and inarticulate.... ' didn't have the job for long.

I used to work with a guy who’s nickname was Jolly Green Giant after a story he told us about a girl he’d pulled on a night out.
I’ll let you work out the rest

Was she green like the green sex pot alien bird from off star trek ....
I don't get the giant reference but I'm thinking about it

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

Erm, not quite. It was more to do with what the Jolly Green Giant is associated with

Now I wish I hadn't thought about it at all....

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

OK, I’ll explain then.
He’s a big, tall lad which is part of the reason, and picked up this girl when out clubbing. They ended up back at his and got down to some amorous exercises.
It was all very adventurous apparently, and he ended up taking her up the back passage, so to speak. After his final call, he pulled out and there was a piece of sweetcorn stuck on the end of his cock.....and so the nickname was born.

I knew it...I just bloody well knew it

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

I've given out nicknames to pretty much everyone I ever met in the past for security reasons..
If I don't know real names i can't inadvertently slip up under interrogation...


I've also acquired shit loads of nicknames...
Such as...

Jeeves
Gentleman jeeves
Magnum
Maggit
The vicar
Racist Dave
Dave the nazi
Hitlers love child
The Duck

And many others...

BAD LUCK DUCK or The Duck is probably the best and more appropriate nickname I've ever had..

I've only had two nicknames. One would take ages to explain & the punchline is shite.
The other one was "Murdock" after the guy in the A-Team.
Not really sure why, as is often the way with nicknames.
But I think it was something to do with being fine with being a "Fool"

If you aren't familiar with the well adjusted & totally sane gentleman in question. Check this out...

 

[MartytheMartian]

I've never had a nickname unless you consider 'Freak', 'Weirdo' or 'Big Yin' to be a nickname.

Unfortunately Marty.
I think Murdock was code for "Freak" or "Weirdo" or possibly both?

Never mind mate, I've heard of waaaaay worse nicknames!

 

[Sarky B’stard]

The best nicknames have a certain subtlety to them that makes you enquire how they were acquired.
Still loving ‘Seaweed’ for Sturgeon.

 

[Foxy]

Heard that one, it's funny as fuck, Just can't remember why. Is it summat to do wit lads at school not fancying her, or summat?

 

[Sarky B’stard]

Even the tide wouldn’t take her out…..

 

[Foxy]

That was it.

As an aside....

My 'acquaintance' Alec got new overalls. Everybody's overalls now have their full name on. Not his. His surname is Dick. Everybody else gets their first name, but not him. His say "A Dick". Guess they know him.
