Ike! when I started in the fire service 20 yrs ago, on my first day, a lads escort wouldn't start. I said "I can fix it". Did, and the name stuck.

Guess you could call Markus a nickname, as my actual name is Mark, but most people call me Markus, due to it being by SN name. As for proper nickname, hmm, well, "hearse boy", due to my old car being a Black WRX Wagon, and being a bit slow, so it was nicknamed the hearse. or "shark "(or fake shark, failed shark, sharkboy, sharkus, etc..) again from on here because, well, of my ability to try and say hi to every female that appears on the bbs.

while in primary 4 at school I got the name "PG tips" (thanks to the teacher guessing our names) due to my initals. Throughout the yars this has shortened to P.G then to "Peej"
Probably more people know me as "PG" than "Paul"

Worsy as most people can't pronounce my surname at 1st attempt. Also have it as my number plate, with an 8 rather than an o.

due to there being lots of Andrews in my class at school my surname was *******ised to Oscar.. so since eleven I've been called Oscar by pretty much everyone except parents / sister. I started at a place of work where a friend worked and he called me Oscar so it even came in at work... My Gf riles my mother by calling me it in her presence!

"Splats" as in 'Jack Splatter Cash' because a typical conversation with any of my mates goes like this:

'Kenny I'm a little low on cash can you sub me for a few months'

I reach into wallet and say, 'how much?'

- I just don't like to see mates struggle when I don't need the money right now.

At work my nick name is George but then again everyone else’s is too, for some stupid reason everyone call’s everyone else George at work. Don’t know why but apparently its been going for 10 years + but no one knows why, we’re not talking 3 or 4 blokes hear we’re talking about 50+ so it can get a little confusing. One good thing is when you walk into the office of a morning you can just say "Morning George’s" and you have said morning to everyone.

I've had a few and lost a few.
Topper @ school due to it rhyming with my surname.
Carrot as a apprentice due to loosing you know what to a red head
Scoobs by the workmates at the moment - original lot arn't they
Big lad by my real (drinking) mates
Only one I'm not sure about is Big lad - don't know if it realates to my belly or my 12" trouser snake - and I'm not about to ask

"WifeBeater" at work..do to my image and love of Stella - amuses customers when they pick up their brand new motorbike and the paperwork has "sold to Mr X by Wifebeater" LOL

Either that or "Asquith" - as in Robin Asquith - Confessions of a Window Cleaner etc etc
