This is a big chart, but thought you'd like to see it, Tom. It's a good reference.

Fun chart.
The nicknames are always fun to see. Everyone in Brooklyn had a nickname growing up. Mine wasn’t that great, “Tommy Nip”...you know, Japanese. You don’t get to pick your own nickname, guys I grew up with still call me that shit when I see them. Some of the names of people I grew up with; Vavoom, Patty Duh, Woo Wooo Stubs, Hawk, Eagle Beak, Babette, Mikey Boom, Canned Goods, Roast Beef, Stinky, Joe Black, Rabbit...I could go on and on. My father-in-law is Joey Bags. I call him that sometimes to break his balls, hilarious

Any of you have a nickname growing up?

I didn’t. I had one.
Number one is why the boys gave it to me.

There are more but of the cuff these are the ones I know from here;
“Soda Pop”
“Rome”
“Chrissy”
“The Hammer”
“Fix It”
“Joe Bananas”
“Pumkin Latte”
“Tofu”
“Honeycomb”
“Old Man”
“Elephant”
“Russian Mike”
“TJ”

All have been overheard and occasionally used by me. I did not come up with any of them. Some are obvious but can you match each of the nicknames to the men? :?

Yeah, I know half of those.

I'm surprised you didn't put one up there for me.

"Ike" was when Mike was President and you were Vice President; "Mike & Ike". You know, to distinguish between the two of you. Without "Mike" there is no "Ike" so that name is only used when both of you are in the conversation. Then I still have to say "Ike" if I'm talking about you.

Here's a little gift;
