Nicknames.

purplepolkadot

Yeah… I’m finding that I have No Feckin Clue who some people are cos they have some crazy nickname so I was wondering bout like everyone’s nicknames or like phrases (like quotes whatever) associated with them, y’know yerself like. And THEN (thanks to purple Roisin’s sig, with her bongo boy) I thought I’d stick down all the one’s myself + Jane had for people, creative fountains that we were. So:

Glen (marc)
Bob Dylan (jerome)
Fat Fu ck **** (yes, thank you, that was us)
**** the Minger
**** the ****e
Mong
Tightarse****e, or Tash for short
PERVERT!! (peter)
Yer Man
The ****es
Lurkin’ Lorcan (o’carroll)
Twitchy Laugh Freak (michael church, twas affectionate, really)
Paul the Ride (harte)
****a (ita)
Pert Muireann of the Incredible Rack
Helen of Troy
Jason + the Argonauts
Ms. Co-ordinated (jennifer dear)
Lil’ Spinny Alex (he rocked some pants did that guy)
“You messin’ wit ma woman?!”
“Hello! I’m ‘X’, I’m bisexual”
DUDE!! (that’s someone’s name…yeah)
Billy (as in from One flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest)
Balding Hamster
Scruffy
Pink & Chunky
Little *****ed Bitch
Whohoh….yore crotch (ian mcloughlin, his crotch like, whoa…*comes*)
Nervous Guy (max)
Nervous Guy’s Friend (casey)
Classy Sarah
Jack the Vag Ripper

Leaving some of the real names out there, cos they’re a bit derogatory, and some of them don’t need explaining. and I’ve forgot lo-ads of them.

And I do believe we’re the proud sponsors of Poncho Alex and Arizona Alex, cos people were throwing round all sorts of ****e like “Pony Alex” and “Porn Star Alex” before we came along.
(So, Poncho Alex, Jane get’s a poncho and I don’t, huh? So this is how it’s gonna be…)

eh… the words “cavan” “mammy” and “lesbian” were banded round regarding myself.
(and if you’re casey+max [I sincerely hope ‘twas only them], the words “scary and gropey” also. Thanks for that lads.)

(i think there was a thread similar to this before, but hey, new year, new names und so weiter)

Deja fricken vu..
I remember the last one of these threads, developed into people making up page after page of pointless and odd nicknames (*cough*Aideen*cough*)

Evil Egotistical Sleazy Seductive French Bastard

who are you now?

Liquorice

I have countless nicknames, all regarding my hair. Most contain the word mop e.g. mopatop, mopper, mophead, mop-mop. The most common reference to me, if not a nick-name is 'Get a haircut!'. The most common response is 'No'.

Raphael

You think thats bad?

I have curly hair so i get called afroman!

I'm actually debating whether or not to go into school with a real afro, just so the skangers have no material

I hope I'm known best for shouting
"SOOK MEH WILLEH" at every chance for a few days.

I used to be called Afrogirl, that seems to have stopped now. Oh, and do go into school with an Afro, 'twoud be hilarious. And we all love laughing at disappointed skangers because the insult they use thrice daily due to lack of being able to come up with another one can no longer be used.

Plasticman

I'm commonly known as Plasticman, Plastic, or Tumbo.

And Neil, what about foobar?

Havelock

Should it not be spelt: FUBAR [F*cked up beyond all recignition]?

Or is it a a bastardisation?

Plasticman

It's a bastardisation. Or else relating to computers. Can't remember.

Crash

FOBAR - how does the O become a U?
anyway the original is Fubar - ****ed up beyond all recognition.
The bastardisation is Foobar, cus its spelt Fone et Ik Al Ee.

and that was just an old netname, so meh.

pretty*monster

people call me Kate and i won't answer to anything else.

halenger

I am simply Podge. But I am before your time anyway...

Barry Aldwell

I am usually just Barry. Though occasionally someone will stick a gun reference onto my name and it'll be funny for about 5 minutes.

:D mags :D

Lets see.......

mags (obviously), magdlums, magaloo, da magsta (yes people actually call me that), maggie may, maggie magpie, maggie maggot, maggie lou (my second name is louise), maggie simpson, princess (?), marguerite or margaret (by people who wanna piss me off - MY NAME IS NOT MARGARET!!!), hannahs sister (my sister hannah has way more friends than i do)

Yeah I'm sure theres more, if I think of them I'll post them later...

Sure my actual name is a nickname itself...........

theymademedoit

most ctyi people called me sparky, because, one dark and stormy night, john b. says "im gonna call you sparky". i say "please dont". then, on my first day of ctyi, he decides to take me round the quad introducing me as sparky (something i have forgotten to thank him for...THANK WITH MY FIST).

at home, my friends call me (shudder) "surlo". i mean, come on! surlo! i got it in bout 2nd class and have thus far been unable to rid my self of its sickening presence.

jane and lisa call me glen. i dont understand why, because i dont think i look anything like glen hansard.

ana calls me greg because she thinks i look like her friend greg.

*sigh*. whats wrong with just "marc"? :mad:

Dalamar

Since my first year, it's been 'sim'. which admittedly has grown on me.

I've seen gregg and yep, you do look somewhat like him. But i call you Marc, i hardly ever use "sparky".

I'm just Kate, no nickname. Unless people call me something that I don't know about.

mentalimplosion

kate, we had all sorts of names for you *insert evil laugh here*....

i have (none of these caught on in ctyi, except with alex) naners, ananas, ananana, unu bununu, whatchamacallherface,


and our class had radiohead songs for everyone ''cuz kate's a creep'' ''you throw it to elaine'' ''paranoid aisling'' ''mairead's got the bends'' etc etc

incredula pert

I was known as (thanks to lisa and jane) Pert Muireann of the Incredible rack. Ocassionally it was shortened to just "pert".
I have other nicknames also:
Mavis Tinternet
Mur
Snuffit
Sneedy or Speedy
anyway, there are other nickname i can remember from ctyi

Sarah Rosen is, and always will be "classy"

Max was "nervous boy"(due to a game of nervous where lisa kicked his ass)

Aishling O Rourke was always hearing "DUBES" being called after her, so it was a sort or fickname

Lisa-CURVES(as they were so fantabulous)

Jane with the Jelly boobs

JAck the Vag ripper, or Twinny as i liked to refere to him

Period

When i think of more, i shall post

I want to know what names! throw it to Elaine? THROW IT?!? My good god, it was TOSS it. How could you have forgotten that?!? The game was TOSS the orange!

Twinkle

Kate!! It was most definitely, 'You THROW it to Elaine' !!! I know the game was toss the orange, but throw just sounded way better for the song!! I would know,me being Elaine and all.

mentalimplosion

aaaaaaaaaaaaaa, elaine, how are ya girl?

yeah, i know it was toss, but throw just kinda.......... fit, you know?

John1188

i don't really have a nickname though i do on occasion try to get ppl to call me Newanda (it's not a girls name it's an act of mindless non-conformity which stems from watching "The Dead Poets Society" too many times")

most ctyi people called me sparky, because, one dark and stormy night, john b. says "im gonna call you sparky". i say "please dont". then, on my first day of ctyi, he decides to take me round the quad introducing me as sparky

this is not entirely true, the re-naming of Marc to Sparky came one day when between classes in scool i was hit in the head by a book, still dazed and confused i was trying to attract Marc's attention but could not think of his name, i shouted across the room many variations and misprnounciations before uttering a recognisable word: "Sparky!" he at this point turned around and responded "neargh!" or something to that effect. i have called him Sparky ever since.

theymademedoit

umm...nooo, i dont remember this... and since it was you who had been hit with the book, shouldnt you be the one struggling to remember. i did, some day this week, throw both my tg book and my scince book squarely at johns head. he was wrapped around my leg, trying to take off my shoe. that was fun. then a fellow class person began dragging john across the floor in his slightly concussed state. :cool:

Happy CTYI guy

Most, if not all CTYI people call me Happy, for reasons only Teapot and Bob aka Fat Bob remember.
According to Teapot, I was walking through DCU one day in 2001 when Fat Bob asked for the time. My response was "F**k off, Fatty", and bob said " I know, We'll call you Happy". So now practically no-one in CTYI uses my real name.
