We had a teacher Mr Bell, who was at the lower end of the height scale and nicknamed 'Tintanabulum' (latin for 'little bell').

Doubly funny with the first name of Hugh, and The Angels knocking the Bee Gees off the airwaves, so there was often the singing in the corridors outside his classroom 'Hugh rings the bell. Hugh rings the bell.'

We had a mate at college who was from Tasmania, we called him 'Yeast' because he is in bread (inbred)

I had another mate called Choppy because when we were 20, he got an infection and had to undergo adult circumcision. He is still called Choppy, but when people ask we say its because of his side burns.

Other less creative ones: we have 3 brothers in our footy team with the surname Green. Eldest is Greeny, middle one is Bluey and the youngest (and biggest) is called Lavender.

My personal favourite is this guy from my footy team, we call him Andy (even though his name is Tom) no prizes for guessing why!

Chick at work called tumbleweed, because when she first became a guard she tumbled out of the train at Roma st as it was coming into the platform.

Another one called 4x4, cause she's 4 foot tall and 4 foot wide.

A gun business analyst at work is called 'Gouda'.

It initially started as a throw-away line, when looking into problems 'We'll go and ask the guru.' But one of the Hong Kong educated programmers, tried saying this, but used Buddha instead of guru. This got a laugh, and as he was trying to correct himself, came out with 'Gouda'.

Cricket clubs are great for nicknames

A bloke in my cricket club is known as "Treadmill" because he is quite vertically challenged and when he runs between the wickets it looks like his legs are moving quickly but his body is going nowhere.

An aging, grey-haired bowler is known as "Doctor" for having more than a passing resemblance to 'Doc' from the movie 'Back to the Future'

The best one was a young bloke who was known to many as 'Pong' for a while. His last name was Sing. I asked one of his mates about the name and he said "It's because he's asian". He was probably the whitest anglo kid you would ever see.

Got this mate and one of his many nicknames is 'Juiceman'.

Came about as he tried to belt this one girl a couple of times but he couldnt raise a single drop of moisture from her (and all this info was from him!)
The same series if events also earned him 'Driza' (Drizabone).
They were used interchangeably.....

We had a guy in our soccer club called 'Noisey'. Surname was Voysey AND he never shut up.

Another was a guy we called Narco. His name was Markovic. He slept just about anywhere, anytime. Found him asleep atop the bar one late arfternoon down the club. Everyone was out watching the game, he went in and had a kip!

Possibly the best was 'Mud'. He liked chucking brown eyes at high school...and the rest is obvious!

Marty Ayers nickname is Conchita. (Martin Ayers > Martinez > Conchita)

Amy Yang's brothers nickname is "Amy Yangs Brother" - funny as hell when everyone stirred him about it.

This young bloke moves to Darwin and we picked him up at the airport and straight to the pub. After about 10 beers he bailed early suffering from the heat exhaustion. He then made the unfortunate error of telling everyone at work the next day that when he got home he opened the freezer and it felt so cool he put his head inside and his face got stuck to the ice. Percy (penguin) he was known as from that point on.

This is probably an urban myth, but I heard this twenty years ago ...

Back in the mid 80's, Microsoft had just established themselves in Australia (IBM-PC and clones were just becoming viable for small businesses) and a senior US VP was visiting the Aussie tech-support team. He was impressed how the Aussies didn't have any discrimination issues in a group that was best described as 'Revenge of the Nerds' cast, and even the openly gay had a nickname, 'Backslash'.

Turns out that it was from the MS-DOS prompt, where the backslash goes after the colon.

Younger brothers best mate is now known as Fan-Dags, shortened from Fan Dangle. He always told the girls it was because he liked new toys and the boys were jealous. Truth is, silly clown was working on his car one day and just let his hand drop into the fan while the car was running and caused himself a mischief..... Sometimes we let the girls know the truth ;)

I went for a job interview once, and they told me that I previously worked for 'Mr Pineapple' at company XYZ.

I had a vague idea what they meant, but didn't see the connection. Our software vendor would put on a user conference, where the attendees were offered hors d'oevres, then a buffet for lunch. My boss openly admitted to looking for where the kitchen was, and standing beside the door to get first offer of the party pies, mini-pizzas, pastries, etc.

But it was the buffet that gave him the name. He would watch the caterers, to be at the front of the queue and then would take all six pineapple rings that decorated the large platter of sliced ham.

I picked up one of those when I arrived in Darwin, most of the bank expats up there were from SA, but when they received my transfer notice all it has is "M. Blake" from Qld so they didnt know my first name and the HR guy says said "he would have to be a Joe/Joh". Thus i was Joe-Blake for 8 years. Many of my colleagues thought it was my real name.
For the younger generation Joe comes from Joh Bjelke Peterson and ryhming slang for Snake

Others I worked with were

Well what a shock.

I come into here to tell the story of an aboriginal guy i knew in Charters Towers called "Norris Wayne Kerr". We hear the joke all the time, but this guy and his obvious nickname were real all of 30 years ago.


Anyway, due to what i just read i'll expand. He used to try pick on everyone when we were at the local PYC on Friday nights. We were all of about 14. One night he hit a skinny mate of mine and we had a fair old brawl before adult supervisors broke it up.

A year or so later he came thru my high school with a special education group. Apparently he'd wagged that much school and given so much difficulty he ended up with this mob. Anyway passing thru with his mob he gave a few of us some lip and we had a great old laugh at him. An hour later i get called in and interrogated by the principal. Good old "wanker" had told his teacher i had threatened him and called him racist names LOL. Utter BS of course.

Last time i saw the guy he was getting drunk at 15, coming into the skating rink picking fights and getting absolutely belted by the guy running the show.

Anyway the reason i expanded is because while googling his name i just found out he is an accused murderer and will stand trial soon enough. The actual story is freakier than fiction, he was attacked with a knife by his GF's uncle, she fought the uncle off and saved his life - 5 months later he murdered her.

It has to be him. Correct Age, race, and lets be honest how many Norris Wayne Kerr's can there be in the Charters Towers/Townsville region regardless.

hahaha had to be the most fun I've ever had working. The name rings a bell though. First name of Brenton? or i might be mixing him up with another guy.....

Other funny ones we had:
Cheese - the bloke ate 1kg block of Kraft cheese for a bet. the name stuck.
Rocky - the bloke could never ever stand still when talking to customers. he got so nervous he would rock back and forwards.
Handy Andy - thats a long story that may get told shortly.

Guy at work called cyclone, cause he's a slow moving depression.


We had a cyclone at work too. Years later his son was put on as an apprentice and he was aptly named "whirlwind".

Everyone would have come across a "Figgy", affectionate for FIGJAM. We have one at work, used to be off about 4 or 5 at golf too. He could have been anything at anything, just ask him!

Handy Andy:

Happened to be at the warehouse for R and J first thing on a monday morning to pick up some stock for the store. Got talking to one of the boys there about how the weekend went etc. This guy now actually plays for West Coast (AFL).

Anyways, spring in the valley had been on over the weekend, asked him how he fared (I happened to see him on the saturday with his mate having a fair old crack at this bird...) and so got the full story.

Both he and his mate went home with this chick, who was apparently blind drunk and was keen for 3. they start getting into it, and this chick is going off apparently. H.A looks over and notices his mate is having a bit of trouble (if you catch my drift), and so H.A then reaches over to (in his words) "give his mate a hand".

For some reason, he thought this was a story that would impress all the boys at the warehouse... :smt102

oh, you're obviously a bit young.

Nugget is the man that is entrenched in the Australian cricket dressing room and has been for 30+ years. He used to work at Rowe & Jarman as a boy.

I know this guy on the PGA Tour who is called "Snake" because he holes a lot of long, snaking putts.

Dude, Where's my Par?

when I was in High school, I worked at Rowe and Jarman (sports store). One of the blokes spent so much time looking the mirror and telling anyone who would listen how good he was he gained the name tickets.

Funny thing is, the name stuck and 10yrs later, the bloke still goes by the name Tickets, and i can't for the life of me remember his first name.

Trying to think of the bay player that worked there around 86/87, was it Scotty Salisbury??

Maybe it was his way of letting you know he didn't mind a bit of man on man action Rubes.

in all fairness to the bloke - he's a bit tapped in the head.

One of those WTF moments Rubin. Similar to a situation where onetime when I was having a drink with the boys & then one of group (bit of a knob) decides to reminisce about the time his mates played a joke on him by p*ssing in his beer glass. The goose promptly admitted to drinking a glass full of p*ss & tried to explain it away as one of those things that "everyone" has happen to them. Err ... no it's not.

One of those WTF moments Rubin.Yeah, you've gotta love that stuff. My girlfriend tells me that there was a guy in her hometown who was not one of the sharpest tools around and had a little trouble with the ladies. One night down at the pub he casually slipped out that he'd gone to visit a "working girl". The boys give him a bit of stick and ask him what sort of stuff he got up to. This bloke then proceeds to divulge in very graphical detail how he'd gone down on her for such a long time and how much she was loving it.Sounds like money well spent. ;-)

As most know we call Ferrins "The Ferret". I don't know when it started, but I do remember playing with him at Pacific one day and him telling me about his then GF. She was an Italian and her nick was apparently "Thumper" (something to do with a tat I think?!), still smile about that.;)
