A word or name used in place of using a person's name. The word or name can be a shortened version of a person's first name, or sometimes a shortened form of a person's last name. The word or name can also be a joke, or a description of a person's physical traits, or a description of some aspect of a person's personality. Commonly though the word or name is given to a person as a way to make fun of that person.
In my case, my nicknames were given to me as a way to make fun of me. When rumors and gossip started circulating about me
dating my mother, nicknames began forming. Later, after being caught a few times, it became established
truth that I, Ted Rimmel Jr, am truly in
love with and
dating my mother the nicknames stuck. My nicknames are
based around the Oedipus Complex (when a
guy is attracted to and in
love with his mother)...for obvious reasons.
Ted Rimmel Jr's nicknames are: Oedipus Complextreme, Oedipus Complexquisite, Oedipus Complexample, and Oedipus Complexed.
"I hear one of
Ted Rimmel Jr's nicknames is Oedipus Complexample."
"Did you hear about
Ted Rimmel Jr? Oh you did. I gave him the
new nickname Oedipus Complexed. No surprise the nickname stuck! Hahahaha."
