Nicknames!
Just been discussing this with a friend! Who on here has a nickname and what is it?
I kind of got two, never had any stupid nicknames at school, just when I joined the Motor Trade I was known as erm LOL Rita - Queen of Speed after they found out how I like to drive LOL! Also known as Porscha, i.e. Porsche pronounced correctly, I think that name would actually suit me down to the ground ...

"Hey you" usually gets my attention.

Technically wouldn't that be written as Porschuh. From what I remember an e on the end of a German word doesn't sound like an a but somewhere between an English a and an er sound (a shortened er?) sort of an 'uh' sound?
Maybe one of the German readers will wander by and enlighten us. In the meantime I think maybe you should be called Porschuh. |

Actually I don't think I would like to be called Porscha in real life, a bit too weird for a Porsche fan lol

EDIT: after some lengthy research .... (took me 3 mins) here is the first use of the Carlos Fandango nickname on e90post.com in July 2007: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...4&postcount=50 Clearly I was using my psychic skills without even realising because Fandango replied to say this: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...8&postcount=53 For those of you who have very boring jobs ... the entire thread is here: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...os+fandango%22 I also think Porscha may have been my suggestion after a glass or two at UK5. I think it's better than Shamzilla, which was the alternative |

It looks as if I have a previously unrecognised ability to think of a nickname for someone which turns out to be a nickname that they already have. Do you think there is any money to be made from this? |

As for 'Shamzilla', I thought I'd portray my thoughts as a picture: Nothing against you, Porscha, BTW- hope you like it. Viv |
