Watching would I lie to you earlier. Bob Mortimer mentioned a mate Tony who was small. His nickname was “Shetland Tony”. Did make me chuckle.
We had a painter on side by the name of dai. We called him “Dai Exocet” on account if you saw him coming you couldn’t do f***k all about it.

There’s got to be more out there give us the name and reason why.
 
Worked with a guy named Dipper and he would only eat chicken nuggets and tomato sauce as a child.

An old workmate told us about the guy on the building site he worked on . He was called Nipper and he was always asked to nip out and pick stuff up .


Worked with another guy Ian who was called Little Plum , His dad was know as Plum as he liked Plum Duff pudding so they called Ian Little Plum .



We had a guy that collected Barr's that gave you money back when took them back to the shop , Archie was his name so he got called Archie the Bottle Merchant .

Ugger was a guy that used to shout Uggie Uggie Uggie where I used to live. His mate was know as Wogs though I cant recall why .
Both junkies and both dead now.
 
Haad a mate who,though dark swarthy and handsome,had badly broken teeth, Tony Booth, he got called bony tooth.
Another called fizz ped, never did know his birth name, rode a yamy fs1e, and had horrendous acne.
On our club gym wall was written " fizz ped is an illusion due to lack of Oxy ten".
 
We had quite a few through the years, Bungalow because he had nothing upstairs, Blob because he was on the large size, Everest because his glasses were the size of patio doors, 2 tone because he was always on the sunbed and numerous other ones that you couldn’t post on here, everyone had a nickname in those days, these days it would be classed as bullying and someone would be taking offence on their behalf
 
Another was one of our bosses. Simply couldn't think for himself, so how did he ever get into the position ?
He was quietly refered to as 'The Neep !' (As in 'Turnip' for you southerners).

His worst trait was being known as a 'By the book man'.

If it said in the book that you weren't allowed to do something then you definately couldn't do it - no matter what !
If it didn't say in the book that you weren't allowed to do something, but it also didn't say that you could - then you still couldn't do it !
 
"UFO" Unusual Fat Object.

Car number plates and forever called SLY and PEP

"Abbo" cos he looked like and Aussie aborigine

"Cutter" cos be cut you up on the pitch.

I was sometimes called "Eusébio of Cricket"
