OK have you ever had a Nick name people called you.
I had one which I liked, I was a holder of a fire arms licence and got the Nick name Magnum.
So what was yours!
Please keep it clean.

I've been called Dibble for years.
Others I worked with were
The Blister, because he turned up when the work was done
Pifco, because he was always playing with his torch.
The best of the lot was reserved for a guy who was heavily into Wild West reenactment. He had a turn in his eye and was therefore known as
Squint Eastwood

I knew a guy back in London who was likeable enough but always trying to cadge a pint off you. His nickname was Poundstretcher.

As a schoolboy, I was sometimes called Bunny because my initials are BNE. I guess the sobriquet has stuck more than 80 years
