There is a guy I know that works at a different fire station to me called Stuart Tickle, being a bloke born in the mid 70s I always called him Mr. Turns out his own station mates call him Tess.10

Used to work with a big bloke at work called Michael Hunt.
So big that sadly we all call him Mickey. I wonder if he ever played up front?0 -
We had a manager at my old workplace who we referred to as "thunderc*nt"0

According to a mate at work Paul Dickovs nickname at Arsenal was Chopis which always made me chuckle2

A fella I play darts with is called g-spot.
The name was given to him by a couple of women in our team because whenever his singles match is due on or he should be chalking, no one can find him (he’s usually out having a cigarette).7 -
Years ago, I nicknamed a colleague The Bus Conductor - and it stuck. There was absolutely no reason for this. However, he would regularly ask colleagues why he was called The Bus Conductor. Even when we told him it was a random nickname, he wouldn’t believe anyone.1

About 25 years ago I worked with a guy called Mark who was one of the smartest guys I've ever known. He occasionally had a complete brainfart and said stupid stuff. He phoned me once on the work phone to ask me to do 1471 and tell him the last number to call him as it was "a mate". When I explained it would be him he was flummoxed so I called him Dingle - after Marlon Dingle in Emmerdale who was known for being a bit dense
Not only did it stick but even his circle of friends adopted the name too and still use it to this day.1 -
The Daisy comes from the flower Margarite as they look the same albeit the Daisy is a smaller version.RedChaser said:
The name Margaret has a variety of different nicknames. Some are obvious, as in Meg, Mog and Maggie, while others are downright strange, like Daisy. But it's the Mog/Meg we want to concentrate on here as those nicknames later morphed into the rhymed forms Pog(gy) and Peg(gy). My name s not Margaret by the way
Cheers lordromford. Got to agree, Margaret to Peggy is a wtf lolWhen I left school my foreman was was Harry Blades and had the obvious nickname 'razor' On another note, my granddad died when I was in my late 40's. I had only ever known him as Jack but at his funeral the priest started the service by calling him John, I was astounded that for nearly 50 years I had never known his true name. I very nearly bollocked the priest for getting his name wrong!! Evidently, in years gone by, swapping John for Jack was commonplace
I believe it still is. Quite a few names have shortenings/alternatives that were tweaked in the past and, as a result, they don't quite match. Examples being: Robert:Bob John:Jack Henry:Harry/Hank Richard:Dick William:Bill James:Jim Edward:Ted/Ned Katherine:Kitty Elizabeth:Bess/Libby But my favorite: Margaret:Peggy I mean, wtf? How'd they come up with that?

Working in the job, no one goes by their first names.
Over the years my favourite one was a fella they called ‘Bamm Bamm’ after the baby in The Flinstones who used to go bashing everyone/thing about with his club.
Bamm Bamm was built like a brick shithouse and a fantastic rugby player. But was as soft as butter. The nicest bloke.
My last nickname is still used to this day & is my WhatsApp monica.
Marleeeeeeene. I worked in a National unit in London and I was the actual only Londoner on my team lol.2 -

Mate of mine at work has stupid mutton chop sideburns and quiffed up hair. He looks like a poor man's Wolverine so we nicknamed him Jack Hughman3

I remembered another name.
@Curb_It do you remember Mrs Brady? Taught Maths?
She revealed to us in 6th Form that she’d been relieved to get married.
Not because of love or anything like that, but she was so glad to get rid of her maiden name, Ryder.
Made no sense until she also revealed her first name was Joy.
Probably when she was born, there were no such things 🤣🤣4 -
Luca Cumani generally known as "Filthy" by the racing community.1

Have a mate known by all and sundry as Pink. This is short for his full nickname of Pink Panther.
This is because not only is he very tall and thin and pink but he really does look like the actual Pink Panther. He even has those small shell-like ears. I am also reliably informed that he has an appendage that could double for the Pink Panther's tail.

My son came home after just starting at Beth’s Grammar and was telling me about a really tall kid who had bad dandruff. They called him Everest.2

The rapper 50 Cent is also called Arthur Dollar.1

Last week on Peter Crouch podcast. Story of guy called Paul when only at his funeral many friends found out his name was Dave. Apparently had an impressive manhood and many years earlier workmates christened him Paul after referee Paul Alcock famously pushed over by Di Canio.4

There was a kid at our school whose name was actually Alcock. So he got called Smallcock by everyone. Not that imaginative but we were all teenagers.Dippenhall said:Last week on Peter Crouch podcast.

One of our teachers heard it, and told us that he used to know a guy called Richard William Alcock, so his nickname was Dick Willy Cock.0 -
