Some people have called me Marty from time to time in my life which is a traditional nick name for my real name Martin after all :smile:

When I was younger people tried calling me "Allie" until they finally figured out that I can't stand that. And when I was little I had this book called "Hey, Al!" about this house-painter that turned into a bird (it was really quite frightening!) and ever since then people have called me "Al". Other than that, nic names have never really stuck to me.

I have never had a nickname. The closest I had was Goddard, which my friend started calling me for one day, and that was it...

Although, my teacher asked me if she could call me *insert something here* Simpson, for my bart simpson obsession

Hey Snowthergeist, you forgot a nickname in your earlier list. :wink:

As for me, I've gotten just one nickname in real life, but I won't say it cause it gives away my last name. But here on MC I've gotten a ton, Prawnie, Prawn, Prawn Bucket, Prawn Basket, Widdle Prawnie Foo Foo, Hot 'n' Spicy Prawn, Prawn on a Hot Tin Roof, Prawn Crusher, Prawn Crasher, Prawninator, Da Prawn O' Doom, Prawntastico, theshrimpcookie, Mr. Goelz, Lisa's other half, Half Lisa, Jack, RJ, Prawncracker, TPC, The Chest of Drawers, The Duke of Chutney, Prawn O' Heart, Co-Author of the Prawnie/Toga Dictionary, Da Prawn.

And prolly a lot more, I just can't think of anymore. And c'mon, isn't that enough?? :stick_out_tongue::zany:

I never really did consider "that obsessive pink cow-like creature" a nick-name.
