In high school my friends started calling me Juan because I spoke spanish all the time and they didn’t know how to say Jonathan in spanish. They also called me Ribeye. Now most people think Juan is my real name and a few friends from college call me Wanton, like the soup.
One of my favorite nicknames is Clicks.
I’ve also been called:
Smiles
Odomiter
Speedometer
Miles-O-Wiles
Every measurement in the books
and Big Friendly Giant whare my name came from.
My older siblings used to call me “Bra” (my first name is Barbara), but they stopped once I started wearing one. 
Well would you believe my nickname in university was Odie…which explains my user name. When I was a kid I used to despise being called Sasquatch…
Keith
People around the office call me Space Goat.
Now days I’m called Bear, a diminutive of my name, or Papa Bear, but in college I had a girlfriend who called me Big Nasty.
the only one you need to know, to get me moving - BB King.
my girlfriend and I have called each other that for 20 years
and occasionally we use chick-a-BEE (strong southern accent like Jodie Foster in the movie Nell). ok, sorry, guess that
was two names, not one.
My nicknames weren’t, and still aren’t very orignal or cool:
Clu
Clu Clu
Clo Clo
Cakey
Rose (doesnt sound bad, but when everyone calls you that and it is NOT your name, trust me, it is)
Claaaraa (said in an annoying, low, british accent)
Quadzilla - I’m short, and I played quads in high school… it came from a sarcastic freshman.
Linz for my first name, abbreviated.
Cookie, which is the standard mode of address for my fellow res-life staffers. And what they called me in elementary school - unfortunately, one of the local companies had the following jingle: “Lookie, lookie, lookie/Here comes Cookie/Cook’s Pest Control.”
I am currently known as “Oswald”. I got named that up here, and figure it’s pretty apre-po. So, because I get called that so often, I introduce myself to people as “Oswald”.
Other’s I’ve gone by:
Mosquito (Grade School)
Biff (Grade School)
Baran (Middle and High School)
Robbo (High School, College)
Oswald is by far the best. If someone introduced themself, would you remember “Rob” first, or “Oswald”?
