Not sure when the Ibby nick caught on, though. 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." The childhood friend Exnihil never had.
