Johnnygowalkabouts : you could see this dude anywhere in a 15 mile radius- he walks and when he's not walking he's waiting to walk some more. You could see him in 10 different locations throughout the day

Patfullofbull**** : Whatever you do, do not end up talking to this man. Seriously

KevinVonSpiel

Billy Bo//ocks: he's a pain in the.

Dirty Balls Dave: the hum off him is something else.

Dotty Dora: traces of acne from long ago.

I could go on.

When I was growing up, there was a few in my area;

Hag Bag / Hango - an old woman who, in hindsight, we must've driven mental as we had drawn a goalpost in chalk on the side of her house & constantly played 'penos' against it. She only got the nickname coz she never gave back any of the footballs that went over her side wall.

Mr. Wheelie Dog - an old dude whose dog had his hind legs missing, which he replaced with the two wheels & axle off the back of a shopping trolley (the ones that oul grannies used to use) & a bit of twine. The dog was happy out, but the old boy had to lift the dogs wheels up every time he came to a kerb (much to our amusement).

Psycho Billy - one of the local Gardai who used to threaten us with jail if he walked by & heard anyone swearing, to which everyone replied, "F*ck off Psycho Billy, ye mad c*nt", before legging it.

Thems were the days.

Remember that fella in Kilkenny who had a fox trained to sit on his head? I hadn't heard of him and was driving through Thomastown when I first saw him, nearly died laughing...

I'd love to know what names the cats came up with for him!

Smelly Nelly - Her name is Nelly and she smells really bad, fairly self-explanatory really.

m@cc@

There is a hippy looking bloke who is always either wearing sandals or no footwear at all. He's called Mr Softley and as a child, I could never work out why he was called that. As it turned out, his name actually is Mick Softley.

Pockets - Obvious, he never took those hand out of his pockets

The Scabs - A whole family lol a little like the burbs:D

Fatman with a golf club - Obvious, he once chased us with a golf club for stealing crab apples from a tree in a neighbours front garden, oh and he had a good beer gut on him.

No Cliams Bonus - a local police man who once nearly hit a frind of mine with his car and jumped out ranting about his "no claims bonus"

Xavi6

Gonzo - poor young fella had a horrible beak on him and looked like the character from The Muppets.

The Russian Spy - This lad was literally everywhere. Go to he football and he'd be there. Go to Spar and he'd be in the queue in front of you. And he actually was Russian.

The Washer Woman - Lived on a corner house right beside a main road yet had the highest washing line ever. Think tight rope in a circus height. Must've been about twelve foot high.

Slasher - Principal came over the school intercom one day to brief everyone on a wave of bike tyre slashings that had been going on. After the speech he then read outthe name of the quietest young fella in the class and asked him to come to the office. It was meant to be completely unrelated but the prinipal never broke stride so everyone assumed he was involved. We knew he wasn't but still gave him the nickname

AlmightyCushion

Back in second year of college I lived with this Spanish guy. He had this Spanish friend that would call over sometimes and she was on a crutch. We could never remember her name (I think it was some incomprehensible spanish name) so we just called her crutchy.

In third year of college we lived with two dickheads. We nicknamed them dickhead 1 and dickhead 2.

epgc3fyqirnbsx

We had a dyslexic mate called Conor in college.
We called him Ronoc.
The knacker dwarf needs no elaboration...

We had a girl at scholl nicknamed Chucky and the return of the finger, whcih you could also figure out

Eldel

There's a mechanic I've heard of down the country who specialises in spray painting. They call him Midnight Mickey cos he returns your car when it's dark and makes off with the cash b4 u see the dodgy job in the morning.

Also in a pub in Dublin there's barmen in there, all brothers called Stress, Tension, and I believe that Pressure is coming up the ranks. Their actual names are lost in the mists of time...

BollickyBill

How's about D---- Twomey's nickname? Socket. Socket Twomey - geddit?
Then there was Chew Tobacco, Rasher Donnelly, Bottles McKitterick, The Hedger, Huckleberry Flynn.

Jimmy the Hat (Any Karl Pilkington fans will know what I'm talkin about!)

CreepingDeath

One of my sisters knew a guy in Ballybrack whose brother was called "Hoover".

His family came home one afternoon to find him with his knob in the hoover, didn't know that's what one of those attachments was for.
Anyways, it's a nickname that will follow him to his grave.
And his brother couldn't wait to tell everyone he knew.

MaybeLogic

Side salad: Drug dealers sidekick.

We had a local alco named Marcus who used to wander about the place, ranting. Me and a mate were once passing the church on the way home from school and we heard all this shouting. We walked in to see Marcus standing on the altar, yelling at the statue of Jesus. It was kinda surreal.

pickarooney

Three Colours Beard - one of the most popular hobos in Marseille, who has a magnificent beard in gold, silver and bronze shades.

Fathead....he has a fat head

Rowley Birkin QC

Mikey the Pikey; I was at home last weekend and saw this guy driving down the street with a passenger holding a bit of rope out the side window. The rope was attached to a horse he was bringing for a walk.

Frankie the Bum; Just think of the spare change episode of South-Park, just with more shakes. Rumours abound of his supposed wealth from years of hoarding social welfare juxtaposed with his great desire for spare change. Has been known to chase a 10c coin down a hill.

One of our teachers was nicknamed Splinter because she looked like Splinter from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Camp - I think it started over him wearing a blue hoody once. Was a joke at the time but it's stuck now and his family probably call him it too.

RoboDrunk - totters around town at about .5mph carrying a 2l bottle of cider cradled in his arms like a baby.

Mental Denise - she's mental.

Skeletor - skinny lad.

Beardy twat - lad with a beard. He shaved it off and got renamed 'beardless twat'.

Bucklesman

Two litre Peter -- has at least two litres of booze on his person at all times.

Blitzkrieger

Best one I ever heard was told by Stephen Fry on QI. He once met a guy called Heinz.... or so he thought. For years he thought the guys name was Heinz and he must be related to "the" Heinz family but it turned out he was once caught **** with a can of beans over his knob. Nobody knew his real name....


We've a surpluss of Johns down here (doesn't everybody), so everybody has to have a title :
