Calls is a nickname commonly utilized by those named Callum. Generally, as not the brightest of folks, this is a play on their inability to spell their own shortened name having attempted to write Cal. As a result of this, this nickname is used to:

a) shorten the name Callum
b) make fun of their crippling dyslexia or immense stupidity

Often the Callum will not even know they are being made fun of.
Me: 'Hey Calls'
Callum: 'Yup'
Me: Silent internal hysteria
