What nick names were you called in school?

[Mike Tx]

I'll go first. I wasn't too popular in school because I stuttered a lot, a whole lot actually, and I had flaming red hair. There was this one guy that absolutely hated me for whatever reason. this guy pretty much had everyone calling me "Mike Suckivan".

It was horrible, but in hindsight it was probably pretty funny to everyone else.

Anybody else wanna fess up?

I was "TANK" or "Tanker" in regard to my build. Until the last few years when my shoulders fell to my waist, I was still a pretty stout boy and in college I was benching 400 and lifted 250 plus. On a 200 pound frame (my college and early cop years) that was not too shabby. Never mine where I'm at now ) Not too many people said it in a disresectful way

Stoney
Bones (tall and thin)
Jesus (when I had long hair and wore "hippy clothes")

My red hair was the source of teasing once in a while in grade school, but by middle school, that was kind of over.

My nickname was and still is Snake. There are two stories as to why......depending on whether you're a cute female or just some guy asking.

And no Sullivan, it has NOTHING to do with scaly skin or a forked tongue so just keep yourself in check and you'll probably leave this thread with as many limbs as you entered it with

I didn't have a nickname but I DID, and still do, have an identical twin sister. They always called her by her name but they always called ME by her name also. They never called her by my name. Talk about a complex! lol And my mother STILL does that! And, when she does remember my name, she misspells it! lol When I went to my high schol reunion, they got our names mixed up in the directory. So, my sister was the one that got the part that talked abut college, masters degree, teaching. I got the one where I was a housewife! Nothing wrong with being a housewife but I sure worked hard for my degrees and it would have been nice to know that I earned them, not her! oh well....

That still doesn't explain these black,beady, lifeless dead eyes though, does it?

ok...

Piper - from my gramps, because I liked to sing and make up songs when I was a tot...lol, I still do this.

Fivel - remember the mouse from American Tail, or something I can't remember the name, it was a kids movie...anyway, a friend from college called me that, guess because I am such a petite thing. Who knows.

Cheers,
Piper

Woe is you to look into those eyes Sullivan.........

What are we doing, Mike...having another identity crisis?

I didn't have any real nicknames in High School except the various turturings of my last name. In the Army, I picked up Gunky from one of my buds. I think it had to do with this one night I went downtown and had a drink or ten.

lol, Mike and Nite! I just think Mike likes to live dangerously! LOL!

I used to get pretty basic ones because of name (Kate, Kathy, Kat). Sometimes my friends would call me Kathalenamagalena, which was started by my brothers.

I'm really too embarrassed to say what the boys used to call me in high school. I will say it had to do with the upper part of my body, and I refused to run track and field in gym because of the comments from the boys.

I've always thought Katey had a bounce to her step.

Flalaw, No, I just figgured maybe It's not such a good idea to be so identified on the net. You all know me but I trust all of you.

[nickg]

wow katey -- and i always thought the "kakes" part of your name was because of your #1 attribute. i guess i'll have to start looking a little higher now.

wanna go jogging sometime??

For someone who doesn't get embarrassed easily, my face is mighty red right now. Oh my!
