Character Nicknames

Post by borpii » Wed Jun 15, 2005 3:47 pm

Let me start by saying I am a ditz. I forget things. That's where this idea came from! :idea:

I've gotten into a surplus of 60+ different titles. For those of you who don't think that's alot, I keep up with most of them on a semi-regular basis. None slip from my mind- A GREAT FEAT FOR ME!!! :throws confetti:

Anyway, to the point.
How many of you have forgotten an anime character's name so many times you just say "Screw it!" and gave them a nickname? I've done it several times, some times by accident...

My sister and I got so tired of saying Goku and Gohan and Goten- especially in public; this was a time when people thought DBZ was for boys only. :roll: We looked at Goku and tried to give him a good nickname.
We gave up and started calling him the Black-Dotted-Eyes Guy... don't ask. He was Black-Dotted-Eyes Guy, Gohan became Chibi-Black-Dotted-Eyes Guy (Chibi-Dot for short), and Goten became plain old Chibi-Chibi (Chibi-Chibi-Black-Dotted-Eyes Guy is waaaay too much).

Now I know at least half of you have called Sesshomaru "Fluffy" at least once- and you didn't stop there, did you? Got any more anime nicknames?

I confess to just calling Megumi Haya... (the voice actress; would have to look up the spelling) "Lina." So much easier to say, and spell especially :-D

I also wind up calling anime characters random things like "whats-her-name" , "blue-haired girl", etc. But those aren't really nicknames.

I don't have much trouble remembering anime characters' names, so I usually give nicknames because I like them, or because they're quicker to say. For instance, Kurama from YYH became 'fox' just because it's two syllables shorter to say.

A few characters I gave nicknames before I found out what their names were (I've memorized them since then):

Shigure (YYH) - Ugly Guy
Mukuro - Bio-bitch (I really hated her at the time ^_^; )
Shishiwakamaru - Bishie
Eriol (CCS) - Clow clone
Hitome (Escaflowne) - Mary Sue
Relena (GW) - Barbie
Dorothy - Devil-brow
Shun (Here is Greenwood) - Girl-boy
Rosiel (Angel Sanctuary) - That Thing
Freiza (DBZ) - Freakshow

Madoka has her own canon nickname:

"The Pick"

She can throw guitar picks like throwing stars and do some serious damage. She's also pretty good at using playing cards.

Son Goku - Bitch-on-a-stick
Son Gohan - Son of Bitch-on-a-Stick

*dies* OHM, that's just too great! And AUGH!! IT'S FREAKIN' SESSHOMARU, NOT FLUFFY! Does anyone else feel that it's wrong to give such a sissy, pussy ass nickname to a great character?! I hate it when fangirls do that!!

Anyway, yeah, we have nicknames:
Dornkirk: Geezer
That Purple Haired Girl from Utena (Amthy?): Amfreak
Allen Schezaer: Damn Womanizer
Kamui: Kam-chan (chan like Jackie Chan)
Sally Po: Crussant Lady
Zarbon: The Queen

And just 'cause Mr. Smith is just that cool, we always refer to him as the Secret Agent Elf King dressed in Drag

Megumi Hayashibara? Just call her "everybody". 'Cause that's who she portrayed. Everybody!
Probably too busy to be here right now.
