I'm sure we've all been called amazons and so forth, but what nicknames do you like or not like?
My sister calls me Tess, short for giantess haha but I love it.

I hate when my family calls me BigFoot....... they constantly make fun of the fact that I have huge feet...and I am the tallest woman in the family.0

A friend in highschool once nicknamed me Stretch. She still calls me that to this day and that was over 10 years ago.
I hate Amazon! I also hate it when people ask if I play basketball...0 -
I was told most of my elementary years "You should totally play basketball in high school!" Little did they know I wasn't into sports...
I've been called Bigfoot and I'm okay with that.
When I was in middle school I experienced my first bullies and they called me The Beast on account of me being the tallest and heaviest girl in school... I hate that HATE IT!!! I'm a loving person, rarely hate things or people, and I still to this day HATE those bullies that called me that in middle school. When I see them working dead end jobs it makes me happy, but the funnest thing is I now have glasses and look a little different than I looked in middle school so they never recognize me now!!! I can hate them right in front of them and they never know...0 -
Yeah, I always got the "act your age, not your shoesize" when I was 9 and 10 because they were the same. size 8 in 3rd grade. really tho, sasquatch or bigfoot were in there.....0

I was 5'9.5" in junior high. I had so many nicknames I stopped counting at 40, I remember getting called Amazon which I didn't mind, I thought it was funny.:laugh: I got called Mother when someone saw me in the grocery store with my mother and I was taller than she was. That was hurtful, because of the way it was said. I guess because I usually laughed at what people called me none of the nicknames stuck and I don't remember most of them.0

I'm only 5ft9 (This group makes me feel tiny! ), but addicted to platform stilettos (and short skirts) so I get called Legs on a regular basis. I can't say I mind too much, lol. Definitely better than my nickname when I was heavy, which was white rhino... I still am not sure why, ha.0

I was called "North" in high school. Been called Amazon and hate that.

in HS i was called Olive Oyle I hated it because i am 5'9" and then 120 lbs with no curves!!!! I was a straight stick back then!0

jolly green giant. Been called this by numerous people over the years... I try to be jolly, and I always wear green... so it's fitting! (It's amusing how many people think they're being original with this nickname, though)0
-
I remember being called "daddy long legs" in elementary school, and I'm a GIRL! I also have been asked, "how's the weather up there?" hmphh!0
-
In High School a friend of mine called me Shorty, and I loved it, lol! (6ft)0
-
I got called Jumanji in the 8th grade LOL I totally forgot about it until a few weeks ago actually and when I thought about it I cracked up..... I hated it tho laughed it off so I didn't let it really bother me and now find it pretty damn funny...0

I also hate it when people ask if I play basketball...
Let's see... amazon, sasquatch and... big bird? IDK, I guess b/c I'm blond (kind of yellow, like big bird from Sesame St?).0 -

I'm gonna have to start using that mini golf line, TOO FUNNY!!0 -
Throughout junior high i was called ogre behind my back ( kids are so cruel ). Now its names such as jolly green giant and stretch.0
-
I've been mostly call Amazon Woman or in grade school Carol the Barrel (fat & tall) ... But I prefer my new nicknames: My husband calls me Bug and my youngest granddaughter calls me Nana (she is the only one that does)0
-
Oh, god. I was Jolly Green Giant on and off. Then, in junior high, once I started getting fat, this obnoxious boy singled me out and christened me 'Cherdan Grand Canyon.' (My last name is Grant-Johnson... too easy, right?)
Then, as the fatness progressed, it apparently superceded my height, and I just became known as "monsta."0 -
My dad always called me Big Foot...totally didn't bother me! In high school I was always called "the Kauz" or "Kauz" (part of my last name). I think it was a sports thing! I have inherited it from my dad now! All his softball friends that I grew up around call me Kauz, doesn't bother me at all!0
-
I'm just over 5ft 9" and at the age of 15 had a fixed brace on my teeth so I regularly got called 'lurch' (from the adams family) and 'jaws' (from the james bond films)....quite traumatic for an impressionable teenager but I now have really nice straight teeth which have always drawn nice compliments so I guess eventually I had the last laugh.0
-
My mom calls me sasquach, lol. -__- She knows I hate it, but still regularly calls me it. It's so annoying.
Also, since i'm overweight and tall and have pretty big boobs, my friends in highschool used to call me Boobree. (My name is aubree haha)
I moved, and still to this day they call me boobree. Not sure how I feel about that one.0
