A Quote by Rex Hunt

The nicknames - people say they couldn't understand it, but look, I have really enjoyed my time away from 3AW, and I have discovered one thing - that I am more than just a yelling fanatical football follower who makes up nicknames.

In the black culture, certain kids are given nicknames that they roll with forever; the nicknames outweigh their real names. I'm one of those scenarios.

Snoop Dogg

Astronauts cannot pick their nicknames and can only get their nicknames from other astronauts. Any astronaut who tries to give himself a cool nickname will regret it by getting just the opposite from his astronaut friends.

Michael J. Massimino

We became friends in Dublin through music and we had real names, Fionan Hanvey and Derek Rowan - what a dreadful name. And Paul Hewson. We gave each other nicknames just the way most kids do, but the nicknames had more to do with how we physically looked or our essence and I had quite square features as a young kid. I was called Wavin for awhile, but I'm a bit softer - I'm a little softer than a surge pipe so they changed that to Gavin. I didn't chose it, it was Bono and Guggi who gave it to me.

Gavin Friday

You did not just say that. I have a feeling we're on the verge of hugging and coming up with cute nicknames for each other.

Richelle Mead

Nicknames are the most essential in life, more valuable than names.

Chespirito

I like the Albino Rhino. That was kind of cool. Of all the other nicknames people give out, I thought it was really unique.

Peyton Hillis

I have a lot of nicknames. In high school and growing up it was Beaver. In college it was Gotti.

Stephen Gostkowski

Nicknames are fond names. We do not give them to people we dislike.

Edna Ferber

Nicknames are potent ways of cutting people down to size.

Doris Lessing

I love nicknames. It makes me feel loved. It makes me feel less alone in this world.

Elliot Page

Some people insist that hallowed professional teams should never change their nicknames.

George Vecsey

I don't have any nicknames.

Sally Ride

Titles are but nicknames, and every nickname is a title. The thing is perfectly harmless in itself, but it marks a sort of foppery in the human character, which degrades it.
