    My mom used to call me Pûm or Pûm Pûm, almost like the Homestar Runner's PomPom.

    I have one question about nicks. When anyone refers to their significant other as "Booty" or "Boots", they are really referencing sex, right?

    Strangely, I have never in my life had a nickname. I just don't think I have the kind of personality that lends itself to that sort of easy familiarity. I did, however, manage to come up with a nickname ("Bobo") that my poor sister has been stuck with for the past 20+ years. :)

    Hard to imagine, but my prevailing nick is MEGGO.
    My dad calls me M or Meg and my mom calls me Meggers occasionally.

    Meggers? I'm suprised you haven't needed intense psychiatric therapy...I think there's a possible lawsuit, also...

    Most people use my last name, although my friends have started calling me J-RU, or Ru-tang. I don't really know how that started as I am not a big rap or wu-tang fan.

    In high school:

    Ashley Roachclip
    aka Roachclip
    aka RC
    aka Rick Hash (with a silent H)

    I was class of '77. Watch the movie "Dazed and Confused" to see what it was like back then and why I earned my nickname.

    I only had one person nickname me. A former boss nicknamed me "Speedy" after I got a speeding ticket on my way to work. Somehow, he morphed that into "Speed Bump" and then, eventually, it became "Bumper Dude." He owns a music store and I still occassionally buy gear from him. When I call out there, he still often refers to me as Bumper. Wierd.

    On occassion, people, in a nod I assume to SNL's Copy Guy, have called me "Jeffro".

    :D
