Cool Nicknames! :D

[p0ppin]

My mum calls me "Pookie" 

I used to puke a lot as a baby.  Whenever I did, my brother would yell, "Moooooooooom, Joey's pookin'!"  So basically my name is baby-talk for "Pukey".  Not so adorable now is it?

Aww dude that's horrible haha.
Don't worry though.
I have Gordo and Buddha baby by my parents because i was a chubby baby 
But isn't "Pookie" what rich old ladies call their small tiny dogs?
"Here you go Pookie! A little treat for you! Gooood boy"

Midg* = short for Midget.  I'm pretty much a midget but not really. only 5'5" at 17

[killzonea59]

Well, you're not THAT short.
I'm about 5'6-5'7 and I'm 17.
So 5'5 isn't that bad.
I think the height requirements for being a midget is like 5'0 or 4'9 by 18.

[fulro]

you calling that short im bot turning 19 im 5'2 or 5'3

[jrgp]

I'm 5'10 and I'm 17.

And no, the requirement for being a midget is not being proportional, not just being a certain height by a certain age.

yeah it's under 5'... it's only a nickname, i've always been pretty short...

[tehsnipah]

Real life? Sorry, got none. Lame? I don't think so.

Game? I have soldat name as Teh Snipah, and they just call me snipah.

In urban terror (my thanks goes to jrgp), the ign is ThatEffingTerrorist. So they either call me effing, terrorist, or you know.... iraq joke stuff

[L[0ne]R]

In real life people call me "Nick" sometimes (yes, I consider it to be a nickname, since my real name is actually "Nikita" :S).

My main nickname is L[one]R. I don't consider it to be cool, on the contrary - I think it sounds kinda emo. But it reflects a part of who I am and I've been using it for a long time, so I'm not going to change it just to make myself seem cooler.
Though that didn't stop others from calling me "Lunar" instead (A nickname for a nickname? o_O ). I kinda liked it so I ended up using it myself sometimes.

Another nickname I sometimes use is "SovietNik", which refers to Soviet Union aka Russia where I'm originally from + part of my real name. Also if you look at it as a single word - "sovietnik" means "advisor" in russian, which refers to my annoying habit of nerding out and butting in with unnecessary advices.

One time I've seen a Soldat player with nickname "Player 1". I was charmed by its simplicity.

I named my first computer Nikita a few years ago because I thought it sounded cool. You should feel honored. Or unnerved.

[demoniac93]

Isn't Nikita more like a female name?
Yeah, that was a guess based completely on having watched La Femme Nikita long ago.

[croat1gamer]

Its more an unisex name, like Sasha.


My only nicknames are mosly similar to my real name Filip (americanized: Phillip) but if i placed them here, the pronunciation would border with the swear words on some languages. Slavic languages ftl.

The only other real life nick would be 'indian' (referring to the native americans) as i look like one almost to everyone.



This nick was chosen while i had to register a game, and couldnt think of anything except geography (had an exam the next day). The usage of the 1 as an 'i' resulted in 'kroati'. (and due to an internal joke linking to the serbian 'you write as you read' rule).

[smiluu]

Kukkis, delicately translated to "Flowerman". I used to bully and wipe random flowers to others faces in junior school.
Even thou most of them have forgotten it, my old friends still call me by that name.

[y0uRfath0r~]

my maintenace supervisor calls me chongo.

[killzonea59]

Its more an unisex name, like Sasha.

But I have NEVER seen any guy named Sasha?
The only unisex names I could think of is Stevie, Ash, or Toni.

[Nixer]

There's a lot of guys called Sasha in for ex. Russia.

[L[0ne]R]

Isn't Nikita more like a female name?

Uh, I think it is female-only in western countries. In Russia it's male name though. I haven't met a single russian girl with that name. The same way I haven't met any guys with that name outside of Russia.
To me it suits better for girls. "Nikita" has somewhat cutesy ring to it. :S

There's a lot of guys called Sasha in for ex. Russia.

That's true.. but Sasha is just a short version of "Alexander/Alexandra" (I have no clue how those two names relate to each other), so it's not really a name.

* L[0ne]R congratulates smiluu on 666 posts and slowly backs away...

[100% not captain ben]

cool so all of you had to give yourselves nicknames because no one else would, except for like 2 people

[-Skykanden-]

I think we are talking about poeple who give us nicknames.

So what's wrong Ben, you don't have any?

[echo_trail]

People call me Nickesh or Nish for some reason. One guy started calling me JawBreaker ever since that episode with my friend.
