Um, because it's less confusing than calling him Legion?

While that is indeed true, that's not it.

I wonder how many of these nicknames would stick if a poster changed his or her display name. Reboot, for instance, used to be called "Sanity or Madness". His nick then was SoM. Now we call him "Boot". I think I was calling you IBby before it caught on. I remember SoM. I even adapted it to Sommy, and once he became Reboot, to "Booty."

Emily sometimes gets shorten to Em or Ems. Since it was used as my username at some point. I think Question Lad has a few nicknames. His real name is Sebastian so it gets shorten to Sebbie, Seabass, etc.

I think they could. The name did come organically. I'll take no further action giving hints, though.

I routinely get this thread mixed up in my mind with that thread about drag queens/kings.
Yeah, yeah. I'm sure it's just me. :rolleyes:

I think I shall go against the grain and call Legion Tracker "Trackie" from this moment forward! KEEP your infernal secrets, Trackie and Rocky!
Still "Lardy" to my friends!
