Al was well before my time but I love that a lot of our guys had badass nicknames. Any ideas for the members of our crew this season ? The last good n-name we had was "The Dancing Bear" for Davante. I hope by Dec we have some decent suggestions.
I have never seen nicknames abbreviated as n-names.
First for me as well.

Perhaps it's a nickname for nicknames.
Saves a whole 2 keystrokes. Odd abbreviation.
Uuhhh n-names???
Dancing bear? To much weed?
Fine. Nicknames?
" Over time, people referring to "an eke name" was eventually morphed into "a nekename," which is where we get the word nickname. In Chaucer's Middle English, "eke" is usually translated as "also", so it would've been an "also name". "
So there we have it. Any eke names or e-names by December?

Dancing bear? Wasn't Devante's nickname automatic?
Never heard dancing bear.
Hahaha what the unnatural carnal knowledge
hell no. Let Dodds do that. "Novakski" and "Fitznoggle?" hard pass.
Nicknames appear organically. Charley Finley forced nicknames.

Yeah, but it worked for Catfish Hunter.
And Blue Moon Odom.
Maybe we should call someone "T-Bone". That sounds like a good nickname.
Love that T-Bone.
beats the hell out of Coco the Monkey.

We know. You still can't believe that NCAA coaches didn't select him as a first-team All-American.
