"Different" Nicknames

[tinylittlestars.livejournal.com]

Who do you know that has a nickname they are commonly known by that is in no way related to their name?

My friend Mark goes by "Juggs" or "Jugsy" which relates to an embarrassing story from when he was younger, and my best friend Raechel goes by "Reeko" which is a 'punk name' her younger brother and sister made up for her.

My cousin Chris is called Woody, although I don't remember the alleged reason for it (he has three brothers and they all swear it has some completely clean meaning, but would you believe them? I certainly don't). His brother Corey is sometimes called Pudge, cuz he was chubby for a while when he was younger.

My sister and I sometimes call each other Banana and Turtle, which are completely unrelated to our actual names.
