Awful and cruel but isnt that really the Irish sense of humour? No matter how sad a story is, the Irish will always find a way to make a joke out of it, like my friend who we call meanie sees the funny side to it and goes along with it.

My OH used to know a girl called Helen who had a really large chin and she was nicknamed hell of a chin. Very cruel.

'Cancer fist' really shocked me. Then I got the giggles.

A friend of mine from around Navan told me of a fella who used to have a terrible smell off him altogether that used to drink in their local.

They christened him McGillicuddy.:)

Another lad down Wexford way had been engaged five times but never made to the altar with any of them. He became known as Lord of the Rings.:pac:

We used to call a girl in the year behind us Bumface. It got to the stage that even years after we have left school we still call her that and it takes me a moment or 2 to remember what her real name is.

My friend knows a lad called Gongy (slang for a condom). Apparently it's because "his Da should have ****in' worn one!"

Steff · 20-06-2011 08:18PM

Oh, and not a nickname, but worth a mention - I actually know a lad named Peter Foyle.

What were his parents thinking...

There's a girl who's best mates with my cousin, she has a chin that's honestly about 4 inches long. My uncle calls her Chin Laden to her face.

Washington Irving · 20-06-2011 08:32PM

Know this guy who can do this really ghey dance with a sweeping brush, everyone calls him 'Scuab'

Mickjg · 20-06-2011 08:44PM

Guy in school who **** himself at a party became known as Mush.

The principle's last name was MacDonagh. His nickname was "The Knack". It goes back 30+ years. Apparently he does a pretty good impression of one!

One of the teachers was called "Screech", after the character in Saved By The Bell. He looked a little like him. Pasty white with curly brown hair. Absolute legend though. Looked a little nerdy alright, but he had big biceps under his baggy shirt sleeves, which he rolled up when he got enthusiastic over WW2. He also married a drop dead gorgeous woman. We're pretty sure he's Superman. Honestly the nicest, coolest guy.

Tampon :eek: .... cos she was a stuck up C***.... I feel sorta bad now

CorsetIsTight · 20-06-2011 10:16PM

Knew a man who was a regular in his local, which had personalised glasses for their most valued customers.

He got married and his going-out nights were put to an end by herself.

His glass languished unused on the shelf in the pub, and he gained a new nickname...Dusty.

Mr_Andy · 20-06-2011 11:16PM

got the name after he told everyone what a girl did to him down on the beach one night.

This thread has reminded me of some of the nicknames of teachers from secondary school:

The Principal was an albino and was known as bunny eye.

The careers development teacher was in a wheelchair so was known as hot wheels.
