Do you have a nickname?

There is a group in the club known as the Mad Dogs. I'm not officially a Mad Dog but I do participate in the centuries they host throughout the season. Last seaon, shortly after my surgery to remove my hair filled dermoid cyst, when one the Mad Dogs inquired about my surgery. I explained what the doctors found and that my cyst was filled with hair. Upon arriving back our cars I was given the Mad Dog nickname of "Hairball." Each and every time I hear someone shout out "Hi Hairball" I can't help but smile and chuckle.

I turned my nickname into my legal name.

I have a nickname at the dojo, it's not oft used but it's

(insert legal name here) _____a'nator.

I showed up for a ride and introduced as "here's _____a'nator"

Some were shocked. I'm 5'1". BTW I did not get the nickname by being vicious, I got it from a simply horrific e-mail fauxe pas (sp?) of global proportions
