Here... are we owning up to our own nicknames? I will... ;D Bagpuss... due to dark eyes and always yawning... "bags" see... Christ they REALLY were sharp at the Deanery(!) "The storyteller" - I was alway talking and coming out with shit! "Nipper" - I still get called that off 'Scouser' on Wigan Market when I see him! "Chewbaxter" - still use that. And... now this is true... "Columbo" off the folk at work... apparently I do the 'One More Thing' trick and leave a room and re-enter... and I often have me hand on me forehead! Spooky - "art imitating life" sort of thing! ;D N. I didn't have that many. Just short arse, tefal yed, and what would now be considered very un PC, 'Chink'. Then there was the usual 'just use one from your name' GAZ! (yawn!!!) and WINNY (derived from my surname!) Very dull, but there y'are!  |

In fact mister... you have the same surname as me Uncle Joe and Auntie Maud - the latter being the lady who came out with the "Bessie Bacon" statement in the 'Mad dreams' thread.
No relation?

I don't think so... There's a lot of us about. I've never met half of 'em! My dad was one of 10 kids, so they've all gone on and multiplied, so I've lost track! |

I recall loads from my Schooldays - I reckon kids can be really cruel but then lose it as they mature... well, some do - others go on to write for the newspapers and retain the bile and venom!
Here are some examples:
Craphand Craig (had a birthmark... yep you've guessed it - on his hand).
Big Howard and Fat Bulpitt (the latter being only about a few pounds heavier than me... but I already had the 'Bagpuss' nickname.
Big Nose (he had a big nose).
Chinny (who had a pronounced... ah, work it out).
Gibbon Lip (a lad who's bottom lip stuck out... "Like a gibbon", which is something I never attributed to this particular primate).
Chip Barm a.k.a. "Bap" (only the lad's cousin called him this... he appeared to have dwarfism, so his cousin said "He's got hands like a chip barmcake).
;D

We had a similar one at school with a lad who had a triangle shaped head. His name... TRIANGLE There was a another one who never had his hair cut, and had holes in his jumper... WORZEL GUMMIDGE |

;D There was also "Rathbone's Head" - a lad who worked on the Metro and had a head shaped like a loaf! ;D He also made the mistake of confiding in me... "Me last job" he said "was at Camelot Theme Park. I was a Jester. I had to wear the hat with bells on - and curly shes with bells on the toes - don't tell anyone". Of course, this was the days before I felt confidentiality was an issue.  ;D N. |

Sorry it's been a while replying to this, but I've been busy with my latest addiction......namely Ratchet and Clank. As for the nickname Reynolds Wrap, well in case you aren't aware it is a brand name of cling film. For some reason, known only to her, my Mom just attached it to me. Perhaps because the first part of Reynolds sounds like Ren. I don't really know. I just know she loves to call me that in public and it really is annoying.  Fact is my Dad called me Renee because he said that no one could make a nickname out of that and he hated nicknames. Funny thing is Mom said the first time he came in to see her after I was born she asked him "Have you seen the little Wren yet?" Dad was not pleased, but I've always found the story funny. ;D ;D |
