Great nicknames.

As simple as it sounds folks. What is the best nickname you know of?

I'll get it started, I used to work with an apprentice who went by the nickname of static, as in static caravan, because, you guessed it, he never ****ing moved.

There is also monkey harris, who remarkably, 'looked more like a monkey than a monkey does', he got upset at that, just went home and swung on his tyre all afternoon.

Brown finger, that one was only because he smoked so much on holiday in spain he came back with dubious looking digits.

Four Star - He put petrol in the company van instead of diesel after confusing the pumps. (Or maybe he was just really into Dragonball?)

Guy I worked with fancied a girl that worked at a bicycle shop, however he lacked the bottle to actually pull the trigger and ask her on a date, he did however make many trips to the shop and his bike got more and more accessories. We nicknamed him Streethawk.

Mr Fuku. He was a middle-aged Filipino chap with a hare-lip. He worked as a face-to-face contact customer services (nobody can tell me that these big faceless railway companies don't have a sense of humour). He was a very pleasant man, very polite, almost servile in fact, and always said "Thank You" after every encounter, complete with a little nod of the head.

The only problem was he couldn't actually say "Thank You". It came out as (at absolute best, on a clear day, speaking slowly and with no competing distractions) "Funk Hew". On all other occasions (as in most of the day) it came out as something sounding similar but entirely different in meaning.

Wow. Some great ones here...

The only one that springs to mind RIGHT at this busy moment is my friend I called handjob... I think you can guess what he always managed to get...?! He always wore some kind of hat so that name kind of evolved into 'hatjob'.

There was a poster on these forums, that always came across as a bit special. He will forever be known as Special K to me.

ther were a couple of guys i used to go to school with many many years ago. "butt munch the muffin man" and "liquid skill"

I have no idea where those names came from tbh but they stick in my mind
