Originally posted by SimonH Two that I'll keep persisting with, no matter how they fail to catch on, are:
Stevie - Nicks
Timmy - McVeigh*
* No-one said they had to be good taste.
And is it just me, or is #5 more often known as Rhino than Pebbles?
My mates and I in Bay 29 have been calling Nicks Stevie for years (as Bam Bam can attest!). So much so that my 5yo son thinks that's actually his name. Let's popularise it dammit!
FWIW, other names we use include:
Becks - Jude Bolton - for his use of 'product' and metrosexuality
Plugger - Ben Matthews
and several others already mentioned here. Stevie is a no-brainer for mine though!
Moron, idiotic, feral Collingwood supporters used to call Nick Davis " Nicky half steps " and Andrew Schauble " Slowballs " during there days at the Pies.
Well somebody told me, You had a boyfriend, Who looks like a girlfriend,That I had in February of last year, It's not confidential, I've got potential
