Big Mike- Dont move to Jersey, you'll hate it0

I had the nickname "Little Bit" for years. I hated it. How am I supposed to be intimidating with a name like that?0

Hmm. I have an uncle and a cousin both named Paul My uncle was always referred to as Big Paul. His son, little Paul. By age 16, Little Paul, was taller and broader then Big Paul. They are still referred to in this manner today.
But, I can see your point.0 -
It's never my friends that call me big mike. It's random strangers. These people don't know me from Adam. They only know my name because it's printed on my shirt If anything I just don't understand it. I'd never call someone I don't know short or skinny in the chance that they're sensitive to those parts of themselves.0

But calling you m00tmike is legit? Seems perfectly logical...0 -

I can see where that would get annoying. Those who don't know my name usually say "big man" or "big guy".
And I'll agree - if you don't know a person, don't give them any sort of nickname. Big, little, whatever. You show some basic civility and respect before you assume familiarity. My wife is 4'10", and we joke about her being a "hobbit". But if you don't know her personally, you call her by her real name. (I think my family made one "Mutt and Jeff" joke and then left it at that )0 -

Actually yeah. I chose my username. It wasn't chosen by a random stranger. See how those are different? I don't call myself big mike. I also don't call old people old or walk up to a stranger and say "hi black person"0 -
Are you tall too?
Hubby got called Hoss at Starbucks, he just laughed.0 -
I don't mind "Big Jimmy"....
.....ok ladies? ;-)
To me this just seems like you're looking for some big Jimmy and need a bit of help from the ladies finding it.0 -
There's a guy at my church.... he probably tips the scales easily at 290+ .... he calls me "Big Sexy"..... kinda' scares me..........0

On the other hand, people could be calling you Tiny. A huge guy I knew in middle school was nicknamed Tiny. Great guy, and never seemed to mind.0
