Player Nicknames

[NotoriousHOP]

So we have player nicknames and player combo nicknames. Personally I like the combo names better.

These are two great ones
Wemby and Castle - Area 51
Wemby and Kornet - French Vanilla

But I thought, what about Wemby and Harper?
I like Blackjack (21) but that about 2-1-Oohhh! Especially after an alley oop? I'm going to do my best to speak that into existence.

Here are some of the player nicknames that I can recall off the top of my head.

Wemby - Alien, The Extraterrestrial
Keldon - Big Body
Barnes - Black Falcon
Olynyk - Lunch Lady
Sochan - Polish Prince
Fox - Swipa

What else you got? Known nicknames or nicknames you'd like to speak into existence.

 

[Guru of Nothing]

Don't forget the Maestro.

 

[absoloot66]

Don't forget the Maestro.

Mitch?

 

[Guru of Nothing]

Mitch?

Yep

 

[NASpurs]

What about Discount Kobe?

 

[NotoriousHOP]

I can think of a player that some people might want to call Temu Mamba.

 

[NotoriousHOP]

Apparently one of Harper's nicknames is Baby Harden. I don't like it. We'll have to work on something else

Bryant has been called Freak Nasty but I'll not sure how prevalent it is. Someone suggested Silent Assassin because of his ASL knowledge. Not sure how I feel about that one yet.

Castle has been called The Rook but I don't think everyone gets the rook being the castle in chess. I think most people see it as an abbreviation of Rookie.

Here are all of Korndog's known nicknames, some of them won't fly here:

The Green Kornet (this is the specific one that has no place with the Spurs)
Korndog (obviously)
The Block Godfather
UniKornet
The Moose
Lucy the Bucktooth Beaver

 

[NotoriousHOP]

Lucy the Bucktooth Beaver?? Now you're just projecting Scott!!

 

[Neuromancer]

Vassell - Main Character

 

[scott]

Lucy the Bucktooth Beaver?? Now you're just projecting Scott!!

Apparently this was his childhood nickname (per the interwebs)

 

[RC_Drunkford]

They call Carter Bryant „freak nasty“. I have no idea where it’s from, but read that a bunch of times

 

[WFO]

Lucy the Bucktooth Beaver. Just had to type that one out. I’ll roll with it.

With as many successful connections as Castle and KornDog have had, it feels like they need an Area 51 style nickname. So it's 5 7 or 7 5 but 5 7 seems more appropriate since that is the direction of the connection.

Ideas? The only things that immediately spring to me when I think of 5 7 are Heinz 57, which is too old of a reference and not that great of a steak sauce, or 57 Chevy which isn't that great either.

And now that I read the above word jumble, I think the best part about that is Steak Sauce but it's too obscure and not particularly good either.

Step up Bums and christen this couple!

White Castle

 

[NotoriousHOP]

White Castle

Nicely done!

Poor Luke. Every nickname is going to relate to him being white.

 

[ginobilized]

White Castle for the win!

Korn on the Lob was bandied about by some genius on here, too.

The Maestro and his Minions

Harper deserves a stellar nickname after we get to see more of him

 

[heyheymymy]

Wemby and Kornet - French Vanilla

Wemby and Kornet - Crop Circles

 

[heyheymymy]

haha I like UniKorn

 

[Seventyniner]

Which one is Harold and which one is Kumar?

 

[Guru of Nothing]

Wemby and Kornet - Crop Circles

My favorite so far.

 

[Valparaiso]

Dalai Yama and Unikornet are my favs so far.

 

[Valparaiso]

Korn and Castle sounds like a pub you'd find in Edinburgh or Dublin.

 

[brazil]

Champagnie - Blanc de blanc [Blanc de blanc smells like Champagne, looks like Champagne but is not champagne, it is sparkling wine produced following champagne method but cannot be called champagne because located outside champagne region]

more for French speakers but quite fitting... Champagnie looks like a 3&D but he ain't a real one

 

[absoloot66]

Korn on the Lob
