Chicken Bone- My boyfriend showed his online gaming buddies a picture of me, and they proceeded to roast me into oblivion. (I'm cool with the boys, so it was all light-hearted jokes.) My favorite roast by far was when one of them told me I had chicken legs and I looked like I had nothing but skin and bone. (I'm extremely skinny lol) So now every time I'm with my boyfriend and we talk to the boys, they all scream "AAAYYEE IT'S CHICKEN BONE!!!"
That's actually kind of sweet. They obviously like you and accept you as a friend, otherwise they wouldn't have bothered.
...My name is Ning Ding and my friends call me doorbell...
Saltine. When I was introducing myself to the new student teacher for choir, I made a John Mulaney joke apologizing for “looking like I lived in a dark room for 60 years where I listened to the radio and only ate saltines.” I’ve been called Saltine by this man ever since. It’s probably my favorite nickname though.
Bread or Bread Vendor
A close second would be Pebble
If fat met handsome.
This pisses me off. Fat does not mean unattractive. I'm chubby and sexy. And don't need anyones validation. And neither do you. And guess what else. Being a gorgeous chubbo is a superpower. Here we are gorgeous and well fed while no heads would turn if they gained a couple. Lol
Mine would have to be "Twinkle Toes" because when practicing for a play I did a little spin while walking on stage and nobody ever let me live it down

“Acorn Eater”, because...well, it’s pretty obvious. i ate some acorns on a dare, and my friend found out (and thought it was hilarious). i don’t mind though, it’s a term of endearment

Hot potato. When I tried playing basketball for the first time, I was told that one of the rules was that you could only have the ball in your hands for 5 seconds or something. This led to me getting the ball out of my hands as fast as physically possible every time someone passed to me.

Nobody was allowed to set their drinks or food on my tool box at work. If I came to work and found crumbs or bottle rings on my tool box the entire shop hid from my wrath...
Butters - only a few call me, only because at rugby training I had a nightmare session and was dropping everything ("butterfingers", is used in the UK for someone who cant catch)
I half made up mine: Speedy Muffin. The origins: on the first day of school, I brought an English muffin to eat. Then, later, I was playing basketball and did something really fast. The result: The birth of Speedy Muffin!
I've finally gotten my mother out of the habit of calling me "George", which is nowhere near the name she gave me. The full version, which I earned in preschool for reasons unknown, is "Georgie Porgie Puddin' Butt."
I also had a friend in high school I only knew as "Jonesy" for the longest time. I found out later it was short for "Davy Jones", and only then did I learn his real name was David B.

“Fort.” The genesis of which being that—ok now bear with me if you will—I was born on a college football Saturday in the fall when Notre Dame (my grandfather’s & father’s alma mater) was losing to Stanford; Lou Holtz was the head coach of the Fighting Irish at that time (1990). So, while my mother was screaming, giving birth, my father and the doctor were screaming, watching ND try to pull of a victory. At some point the joke was made that if Lou Holtz and the Irish managed to upset Stanford, I was to be named, “Louis,” in honor of Lou Holtz.
Notre Dame lost, as did the petition to name me “Lou.” Fast forward 22 years to college, where friends hearing the story for the first time and finding it amusing briefly called me, “Lou,” then “Louis,” then “Lewis,” (spelling is important for this next leap), which turned into, “Fort Lewis,” because who the h*ll knows...and eventually: “Fort.”

I have two guys at my school who I call dad, they call my their child. It's because they're way more mature than me and feel the need to supervise me and make sure I stay out of trouble. I like them, they're cool.
My name is Elizabeth and I am a dialysis nurse. I have a patient that insists on calling me a Elizabethany. Not sure why. But it stuck.
Perhaps a take on Countess Elizabeth Bathory. According to rumors she murdered young girls to bathe in their blood believing it would keep her young. If you find out that's the reason for the nickname, start smacking people upside the head.
In my circle of friends, there were several named "Ed." So they became known as Special Ed, Elementary Ed, Driver's Ed, and Large Skipping Ed (Or LSE for short).
Unicorn- Super close friends of ours had a baby girl, and her two older brothers loved to tease us (it was all fun and games though, and we knew they were all joking.)

Code Carrots
(I'm and Tomboy Girl Teen)
Me and my guy friends were hanging out at our nearby park after school. We were discussing how one of them was gonna come out to his mum. Don't ask why but we had all saved out carrots for after school because we had loads, we were eating them and a phone rings, we all look at each other and the back at the phone it was his mum and I yell code Carrots for some reason and his mum goes, what? And the Conversation goes like this.
'hey mum'
What time you gonna be home '
'5.30? I'm having dinner with my mate'
'ok text me when your on your way homr'
We all nod at him and he adds
'um OK mum, oh and I have something I want to tell you'
'yea?'
'I have a boyfriend so I'm gay. Love me still?'
'of course ! As long as your both happy I love you'
'thanks mum'
'bye'
'bye'
He looks at his boyfriend who was sat next to him and smiles and hug. Me and my boyfriend hug and we all ordered pizza at my house
So I'm Code Carrots and all together we're the
Straight Up Gay Gang because I'm straight and them to are gay!
Sorry this one's long but I like the story
My dad is really weird and when I was little (and still a lot now) he calls me “Fruitcake” and “Buckwheat” and I have not the littlest idea why :/
A fruitcake is what you call someone who's a little crazy. And Buckwheat was 1 of the Little Rascals. It's a generation thing I guess. I call people those names a lot!

In college my friend named me Tweety Bird cause I was always happy and talking.
Deep Fried Narwhal. My friend gave this to me for calling him string bean noodlearms

Well one of my friends calls me "Sussy gamer" and another calls me "Zanary" (I'm not sure of the spelling lol) these aren't really random but XDD
Hubby is named Webster bc he can’t spell anything! Son is Fric. Mine is Sam or Sambizini bc my mom’s name is the same as mine and hubby didn’t want to always call his mom in law.
Carpet Stain. It was because my friends didn't know what to call me because I have so many regular sounding nicknames, so I told them "I don't care what you call me. You could call me carpet stain for all I care, and I'd still probably respond to it." and it stuck.
Other people call me Orange Peel because of basically the same reasons
Let's start with the "prelude" (hahah). My persona's name is Hami, which is a simplification of my name without changing the original lexicon root in Arabic. But my sis told me that it is a feminine name, so long story short I told this to a group chat.
Then suddenly a random person suggests the name "wings of the village". Doesn't make much sense, but sounds cool. I changed it to Japanese as far as I can, and I use Tsubasa no Mura as my second persona name.
In high school my brother tried to make “Big Al” my nickname. I was a petite female named Alex... thankful it didn’t stick! He meant well.
Breadgar, my name is Edgar and I make bread for a living.
My least favorite nickname, when I was a child, was Bushboogie, because I had long, curly blond hair that blew wildly in the wind.
Mine is Carroti. Don’t ask me where that came from, I really don’t know. Also, Poisson, which means fish on French, and I also don’t really remember the cause for that one 🤔 Yes, I have weird friends.

My husband’s best friend has been one of my closest friends for many, many years. At some point, way back in the day, he started calling me Poopsicle. Eventually it was shortened to Poops. I honestly can’t remember the last time he actually called me by my name 😆
I once had the nickname "Hurricane" because of how quickly I could loose temper
So my friend named us after animals but couldn't decide on one for me: Majestickoalabearflapflaprapterducky, good luck saying it.
rhubarb lol. My friends thought I needed a nickname because I dont like being called Roob.
I’m not sure if this is a nick name but at some point my friends called me Aaron? My name is Dylan not Aaron. It was weird
Sallie Slap Cabbage. My Grandad used to call my Mum this when she was little and my Mum used to call me it. My middle name is actually Sallie. I think Sally Slap Cabbage was an old entertainer. I was once chatting with my friend Gary about nicknames and his Mum was also called Sally Slap Cabbage! Small world. My son like it so much when he was little we gave him his own version, Connor Slap Carrot.
mine was ther-bear I didn't really like it but now my brother is using it now every time he sees me or calls me.
Furnace - because I apparently emit heat when I sleep.
Crazy Priest Lady - Because my name is Kira. The person who called me this explained it as thus: Kira = Kira Nerys, Kira Nerys = Bajorian, Bajorian = Kai Winn, Kai Winn = crazy priest lady, so crazy priest lady = Kira.
I emit heat when I sleep as well. It confuses me, because I'm pretty much always cold when I'm awake.
My mom would call me silly guacamole butt for no apparent reason and my sister calls me HayHay (was fine with it till moana came out)
Furby, awarded by my best friend Timmy No-legs (that's the nickname I gave her)

“Kaykaymomaymay”- my sister. Not really a nickname but something my dad says to me ALOT “god, your funny” my dad and I joke a lot
I was called Sunshine by a guy when I was in vocational school. It was (most likely) because I wore my hair long, (I'm a man), and it was sown to the middle of my back - this was the early 1980's, so he thought I was a child left over from a commune or something. I wasn't.

I've had a few weird ones over the years these include
Fishy
Fritter
Pera
Saggy
Wobble
One morning my dad decided for the next weeks weeks my name would be: Noodlewonk. Why you ask? I have no idea, and neither does he. 🤣
“Bowing Ball.” This doofus is used to work with called me Bowling Ball with a big grin on his face for weeks before he would tell me why. Finally I just said, “Mike! Goddammit, why do you keep calling me that?” He said, “Well, if your boss is the kingpin, then you must be the bowling ball.” He thought it was the height of wit.

My nickname is chum bucket, my friend were coming up with nicknames that were a mix of the names of 2 fruits, I was cherry and plum, or chum, I put a bucket on my head and have been called chum bucket ever since.
Quick tongue- while i was playing an online game with some friends this dude came up and killed me then proceeded to call us names. I had enough and called him a sack of poorly packaged horse sh*t (which i got from hazbin hotel).
my mom called me Gouvernante (governess). I am the oldest of 4 siblings and have to take care of them once in a while ... well I was a very strict big sister...
Boo, which I never let anyone but this old friend of mine call me. And this was way before Monsters Inc existed :D Dunno why he called me that but I didn’t mind. Also had a friend of a friend call me Two-Tone (again nfi why) because I had black hair with a blonde fringe at the time. Weird
Juliet, in high school orchestra, because they thought my music stand partner and I were cute together, "like Romeo and Juliet". They didn't call him Romeo though

One of the managers at my site calls me Deputy Dogette off a very old cartoon. I also have to friends who added JR to my name despite the fact that I'm a female and don't have a shared name with anyone in my family, they still call me fist/last/JR and I don't know why besides the fact it makes them giggle, a lot.
my family calls me 'Jelly' and my sister 'Jam'. something that a great aunt came up with, I think it's bc we are twins or something. but I only let my family and close friends call me Jelly.
