So has anyone else received a nickname from their fireteam to shorten or mess with your gamertag? What are they? Howd ya get them?
Example: Most People call me Slinger or V.Z online (my gamertag is same is destiny forum name) To shorten it but an odd one ive been called in a VoG raid was Verizon, because i guy in the team couldnt figure it out during the raid (i dropped in at templar fight and he was pre occupied lol) and saw the vz, it stuck for the whole raid and anytime i was needed they called me Verizon.
I hope i get some good and funny stories guardians, so let me hear em.
Edit one:thank you for the replies and keep them coming, you've kept a house husband busy today (got sniped twice by hobgoblins during daily reading responses lol) and ive had some major lolz everyone read these responses because these guardians have been in similar or worse and it resulted in some hilarious nicknames.
Edit2: thanks for all the responses again, sorry i quit replying got caught up putting up a roof and now i dont think ill ever catch up lol

People just call me "kuro" for short(Kurama isn't my psn). I don't mind it, people always mispronounce my name, haha. I also get asked so many times what it means. XD
-
Snappy and nasty are some common ones lol
-
My name is pretty good. I remember I was playing with some Brits doing Vog and one of them called my name blaming legendary lol. Mostly people call me "Fuzzy" only some people call me "Fuzzycrocs". Lol

Guess

It's funny when people try to shorten mine to "entre". I have heard at least 12 pronunciations that I never knew existed. "Path" is usually a little better.
-
Look above.
-
I usually just get called Spork. But it's funny when people pronounce my first name "Ragging" instead of raging. And they aren't joking.
-
Most people call me Beard or Glory but one guy called me gloryhole for an entire VoG raid once. It was magical
-
Im also friends wit a dude whos name is big black clits
-
Major by friends, Martian by strangers Then some people who try to hard think my name is Martin without the "a" and they are 100% wrong yet insist on calling me that.
-
Any gamer tag that is a reference to anything in destiny gets tea bagged whenever I see them die. I'm just saying.
-
They called me cow :(
-
Shinny or AC.
-
Some fools can't seem to get a grip that my name is Minimal without vowels, so they call me Gamer

Edited by Phoenix_71: 4/20/2015 3:26:00 AMI know this is supposed to be about gamertag nicknames, but I have to take a second to profess my appreciation for my two favs: UncleBlazer and hp_hatecraft I find myself wondering if UncleBlazer is as much fun IRL as he sounds, I'm assuming as much. Hp_hatecraft just really stands out as a clever riff on a sci-fi relevant name. I wish I had thought of it lol.

Edited by Promethean241: 4/20/2015 3:20:48 AMMy name is Promethean241 online an people call me Promethean. So there. [spoiler]During my first raid I was with a bunch of Brits and I was eating chicken nuggets, so now I'm apparently nugget.[/spoiler]

I think everyone I know gets lost all the time. Here we go again...
-
The team calls me justice, however I don't really belong to any clans.
-
Bilbo Teabaggins
-
People can't seem to piece together my name and actually try to pronounce it lol.
-
Always Eggo to people I don't know. Fiance's gamertag is Jieicho and people usually just say Jericho. I giggle more about that for some reason.
-
Funniest one I seen was "Iwreckfatchicks". Also ran into a guy named "Bilbo Baggins". Lastly I raided with a guy named "OiFakie", my friend kept calling him Oil Field. BTW this is one of, if not, the funniest post I've ever read in the forums.
-
I usually get called rez. That would be really ironic if I used sunsinger, but I actually dislike the self rez play style so... the reason I have that shortening is cause when I made the account some 7 years ago I was uncreative and just used my first two initials and my last name and suffix. Lost the account then made a new one with the same name last year...

Sushiwrangler is best I ever saw, but not Destiny.
-
My gamer tag is Dir T nalgas. Stands for dirty butt cheeks in Spanish. People usually just call me dirty though
