27 Strange Nicknames With Funny Backstories

The best and worst part about nicknames is that you don’t get to choose what yours is — there are creative people out there who will dub you with the least flattering moniker possible that you’ll eventually start responding to anyway. Like the guy who was nicknamed “Sidewalk” because he fell on the sidewalk and broke his arm, or the tall white girl with short guy friends who was dubbed “Snow White.”
Other Redditors have recalled the funniest nicknames that they know of with hilarious backstories to match, and it’s good to know people still take pride in this very particular artform.
