Yes. Ash (obviously) and Andy (short for my maiden name). Ash doesn't bother me but I hated Andy. Mainly because it's a guy's name as well as my grandfather's nickname back from when he served in the military. Fortunately not too many people call me Andy anymore after getting married.

mine was hannah banana or hannah montana or honz. I dunno where honz came from but yeah!

Roswell.

Could be worse. It could be "Spiney Norman" (Monty Python reference)

The nickname I got tagged with as a kid that has stuck with me til now is HAMMERHEAD. I got it because I have a hard head. It's not that I didn't listen to others when they tried to talk to me. It's just that I broke everything from peoples hands to three inch doors with it. And believe me, I got the scars to prove it. I hated fighting, too. It's just people used to try to push me over a lot and I wouldn't let them. And when I wouldn't let them do it, they'd pick fights with me. That's how I got tagged with HAMMERHEAD.

Just a quick hi to you all

And welcome to ...

Chewbacca,Ash,Spiney Norman,& Hammerhead....

Hammerhead...do you ever get ,Where's Wally?

I have been called Damage for a long time. Its a name given to me by fellow full contact Karate people. They were convinced that I had to have brain damage from fighting, and just from my Karate injuries in general (broken bones, stitches, 2 concussions...). :bnghd:

Thankfully I do not fight anymore - only instruct - which is less dangerous.

Hmm... In highschool I had a few nicknames
- Short-Stuff (I'm 5'3)
- The General (From being in Army Cadets)
- SuperStar (Call Sign when on personal radios on cadet exercises)

My Dad calls me:
- A (Short for my name - actually a LOT of people call me that)
- Shorty-High-Pockets
- Daughter-Figure

My Bestfriends call me:
- Miss.Consuela
- Anastasia Beaverhausen
- Grace (as in Will and Grace)

Oh! And on here:
- CA
- Carrot

Either one works I answer to it all...

- Carrot

Nicknames........boy do I have a few.

The Real World
Boomer - Got that one from being born on Independence Day.
Trainboy - Got that one from the photos that I have taken in the past.

Those are the only two that I have gotten in real life.

ATS
gimme
gimmeh
GF
400
foot
footy.

I have a couple depending on which one of my friends is trying to get my attention. Most people call me Paddy, becasue my names Patrick, Others call me Irish... Not by choice. I actually have more English in my blood but i guess that really doesnt matter. Some of my friends call me "one punch"... i guess the only way to explain that is to say that when i was in rowdier days of my youth i used to hit people really hard some times... you know at the bar or whatever. My other nick is what they call me at work, Silent. I don't talk much when i'm working, i guess.

....hello trainboy......
Do you like big trains...model trains...or mini rail trains?

And Hello Slient one......how are you going?

My BF calls me babe and I call him Hobbit he's shorter than me.

At work they call me OCDee Dee (OCD)
