30 Chucklesome Reasons Folks Received Ridiculous Nicknames, As Shared In This Twitter Thread

There are four coopers at my school. They are all quite popular so when we say their names you gotta either say their last name or their first and last.

Not school but worked with someone who was called Pete but because we already had someone working at our place with the same first and last name, we called new Pete "Bob". Even his e-mail was down as "Bob". Years later, I ended up working with first Pete's son and told him the story. He told his dad who responded with "Well I was here first so I weren't changing my f***ing name"

I studied in a school where there were 3 classrooms per grade, each classroom with 40-45 girls. Only in mine there were 7 Alejandras, they were just addressed by complete last name or nickname based on it (i.e. Gutierrez becoming Guti)

In 4th grade there were 5 Sara’s in my class alone

There are 2 Braydens and 2 Landons at my school. Usually they are called with their first name and last name's initial

That is sweet.

Had a mate Evan we called ‘Temptation’ because he wore 17 on our team! Still makes me laugh every time I hear that song! 🤣

Same with Cristiano Ronaldo.

i’m glad his name isn’t road kill edit: aww thanks everyone edit the2nd: GET THE CAMERAS IM FAMOUS

Same but elementary school, and his mom accidently ran over his legs in the driveway with her minivan. He was in a wheelchair for a few years. No one called him that to his face tho

I shouldn't have laughed. But..... I did XD

my initials are EJ

I need someone to give me a nickname for this reason

My brother is an EJ. Mom named him after Prince Eric in The Little Mermaid ☺️ So he's Eryc Joseph (EJ - also, all of us have a Y in our names from a tradition on dad's side of the family)

Was his real name Rod?

3 times?? how does that even happen

After the third one, We called him the Late Sparky

I was struck once when I was looking out at the storm through the window. It hit my elbow. Apparently it wasn't a direct hit. My mother was at a neighbor's house and was struck at the same time. Years later my cousin was struck in the knee while riding in a car.

EC -electron cannon

This reminds me of when I was new to a school and didn't know anyone. I was nervous for my first class and then the teacher does attendance... My nickname for the last ten years has been Lanye (Like Kanye with an L) Northeast.

We had a new kid at our school. His name was Ethan, but we already had an Ethan. We called him Henry

I want to see the faces of the upperclassmen that made fun of you and just see their shocked expression

What are upperclassmen?

Absolutely love this! 👌🏻😄

C’mere Pants! You graduated!

My friend and I called each other pants for the entirety of elementary school. There was no reason behind it.
