My nickname in highschool become my online persona. My freshman year, our JV football team had an awesome first game of the year. My self and a french foreign exchange student combined to score five total touch downs, my self having the last one. Now some how, he got the nick name crustacean. So he nick named us the conquerer and the crustacean. But his french accent sounded to us like zee conquerer and zee crustacean. Well, we had some injuries and we never had another win that year or another touchdown. I scored the last touch down. Crustacean (I no longer remember his real name!) equated the last touchdown with the last letter of the alphabet. I was then call Zee conquerer Z. So then since my first name starts with K, it combined and somehow got shorten to konquererz. Long way to get to its current evolution, but I think its usually that way. When I see my old highschool buddies, they mostly just call me Z.
Okay, my nickname is, among a select few, Major Tom. They call me this because I am ex-military, and I like David Bowie, and because my name is Tom. It hasn't gotten around to popular use yet, but if you call me Major Tom, I'll answer to it.
Like most people I have a huge variety of nicknames. For some reason most revolve around me being a bear. When I was younger like about 4 or 5, my sister called me Joe-joe bear, why I have no clue. Now in high school, a large portion of the kids either call me Big Bear or Alta Morko, which is elven for big bear. Then among a group of my fellow band members, I some how recieved the nickname Budha... I'm still trying to figure that one out.
TO that I have plenty of them. I am used to be call Gorilla as I jump and move quite quickly in basketball and other times I will be called panda.. As I am lazy like them don do much except when I am in baskbetbal. Or I would be Wasabi which is in jap = a kind of chili I think. I have no idea why they gave me that nicknames but after all it I stick with likydo my own created nick name =]
