What were your nicknames as kids. Some asshole named me Bimbo and it stuck for a few years.

[applegrove]

My crew of girls also went through a phase as tweens when we named ourselves after illicit drugs. Alison was Alice-D, Sarah was Sarhash, I was Wendope and Tamara was ....... Tamarawana LOL!. We were so naive. We had no idea about drugs. But for that week we called each other by these names we thought we were so cool.

[Tobin S.]

1. Tobe

My long time friends still call me that and the people I know outside of work mostly call me Toby now.

[sakabatou]

2. Mickey. I hated it.

[RandomThoughts]

3. Extra. Was a name some called me for awhile

Its on the park bench.

6. Spider, Question Mark, Pepperbottom

Were a few

[Kaleva]

7. We had a Tumor, Pugs, Legs, Muskrat, Tag, Snake and Festus in the group I hung out with.

[Iggo]

8. Taco Bender, or Taco for short.

I should've hated it, and today I'd clock anyone who called me that. But back in 8th grade I just wanted to be accepted.

Later in life, I inherited a dog named Taco. That was funny.

[Archae]

9. Farmer.

I have no idea why.

Got that name in junior high from somebody.

Burned itself out by high school.

[Flaxbee]

10. "Bimbo" should be taken as a compliment - carefree, happy go lucky

However, I was nicknamed "Dirthead" - that's what stoners were called at my high school, and I was so much NOT a stoner it was given to me as a joke.

[Initech]

11. My friends call me "G-Unit" and I actually like it.

[Odin2005]

12. I was called "Selz" (derived from my last name), Selsun Blue, and Selsun Power.

[Whisp]

13. Pinty, as in a part of a quart.

I was a skinny little kid

[Rhiannon12866]

14. Cheech

Evidently, that was my own first effort to say my own name, not even close, but it stuck, and my Dad, my aunt and my grandmother called me that forever after. Nobody else ever used it, not even my mother, but they're all gone now and I kind of miss it. It was affectionate. :(

[alphafemale]

15. Rabbit. To this day I'm not sure why.

I did bring my lunch and ate a lot of veggies. And I was on the track team but I certainly was NOT particularly stellar at that. :rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

17. birdlegs, beanpole, tasty, hot rod,thebod.

[MiddleFingerMom]

18. "Some asshole named me Bimbo -- -- -- -- -- thanks, Mom."

23. I'm so happy you are back. We've got your back.

[dimbear]

19. Completely off topic, but bimbo is an interesting word.

Obviously short for bambino, meaning little boy in Italian. Originally in the US it was underworld slang for a young recruit. You see it in 20's and 30's detective literature. How it went from boy to girl is a puzzler.

[Zephie]

20. Spooky.

I had a squeeky toy named Spooky during a summer camp, and was in a strange phase. I would carry it around and squeek it at people and refer to it in third person and the name attached to me as well. I kept friends after the camp and they continued to call me it.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

21. Buzzard.

It made me cry until I was a senior in High School. My last name was Bussard. The Buss is pronounced like the bus that you ride, not like Buzzard. My senior year it became Buzzy and I was much better with that.
Now everyone calls me Mel. Why couldn't they have just called me that back then?
Duckie

[Xipe Totec]

22. Mandrake

because I learned to hypnotize people at age 14. And did it well, actually.

Too well, as a matter of fact.

I don't do it anymore.

That was some of the scariest shit I've ever had to deal with.

[LiberalEsto]

24. Kiku

That was how I mangled my name as a little kid.

When I turned 12, I threatened everyone in my family and relatives with death if they called me Kiku again.

Now I miss it.

[Old Troop]

25. I was "Dickie". My aunt called me that till the day she died.

[Oxy Contin]

26. Swampbitch

[cherokeeprogressive]

27. Coleslaw.

Imagine this: It's my first day in high school. First CLASS. You know how scared and embarrassed you were... am I wearing the right clothes, how do I act...

My first class that day was English. My teacher spent about the first ten minutes talking herself and her Masters Degree up. Then she called the roll.

She gets to my name, and says "James Coleslaw". The class erupted in laughter. Some kids I knew, some were from other Jr. High schools. Now mind you, I've heard every variation on my name: Low-Cost, Pay-Less, Cheapskate, but who, WHO with a Master's Degree could look at the name Costlow and see COLESLAW?

From that moment forward, few people if any called me by my name, which is actually Chris. I was Coleslaw until I graduated.

[Arctic Dave]

28. Dinky.

From the cartoon Dinky Dog

29. Scott Tissue (nt)

[provis99]

30. G-Man. I was kind of straightlaced and conformist.

Doesn't exactly suit me now...
