Most original nicknames for fellow cerocers

[Your wife]

Look, everybody does it!

When your dancing and the musics loud you just cant hear/remember their name you have to invent a better one for the after dance discussion/post mortem.

There are so many I cant remember all of them and some of them aint exactly PC but theyre meant effectionately eg:

Fred Estair
The Jockey
The Devil
The Hairy Monkey
PyschoPerve
Jack the Hat Mc Vittie
The Man Who Wont Dance With Me

can I risk saying the dodgier ones or will I get killed?

Anyone else got some gooduns?

In the the past I have used the following

The Jiggly One (when I FIRST went dancing never knew her name but she was like jelly in a cute human shaped bag!)
and
All teeth (Who's grin takes up their entire face)

[straycat]

Back when I started, my nickname was, I'm reliably informed, 'Shoulders'. No idea whether I have one now.

Oh - and a while back, I Used to Know A Girl(TM) who really didn't want her bf to find out her original nickname for him - which was 'Toffee Bum' (blame it on the wiggle)

[Twirly]

Oh boy - my friend whom I go with have lots of these, had to as we couldn't hear/remember anyone's names when we first started (some we now know their names, but somehow the nicknames are more evocative so they get used in conjunction).

Afraid that some of them aren't that nice! (I'm not a bitch I promise)

Braces
Mr Misery (who is actually more cheerful than his facial expression gives away and is quite charming)
The Cuddly Goth
Kaftan Man
The Demented Dwarf
The Coercer (doesn't lead, coerces you into a move)
Cute Teddy-Bear Guy

[Donna]

Stompin blond
Dominating Darren
Gangly man
Hilary-ious
Stompin Trev
The gruesome twosome
Peanuts (cuz he's small! )

er that's it so far. If I can remember anymore, will post them later.

[Dreadful Scathe]

I once had the nickname "Frog in a Blender" which was nice.

[TiggsTours]

• Neanderthal Man, Desperate Dan or Ug - all used for the same person.
• The General (marches you round the floor)
• Superman (purely down to his t-shirt)
• Twiggy Starry Skirt
• Bob (OK, so its actually his real name, but it suits his personality so well that it works as a nickname too! I don't mean that in a derogatory way, my Dad's called Bob)
• The scary woman
• John Travolta/Patrick Swayze

I know there's loads of others, but can't remember them right now!

[Dorothy]

Why was that?

I know, I've wondered if people have one for me, but then I very quickly put that thought out of my head for the sake of my sanity!

Trying to think what I could have been called over the years

Starting - Mr Apologetic - was forever saying sorry

In between Skippy - was never on the beat, kept getting it all over the place

Now probably Spin Boy - have started doing spins at the same time as my partner, but not all the time

or maybe Lady Boy as I have started to try and learn to follow

[Trish]

DDG (drop dead Gorgeous)
Halifax man (looks like Howard in the adverts)
Paul-with-the-shorts (always wears shorts, even in January)

Can't think of any more interesting ones of the top of my head, although I'm sure there are some.

[DavidB]

The Corpse is also known as Bruce Willis ("I see dead people")

[Lory]

The bigheaded man (not in the hotshot sense, he simply has a large head)

[Serendipity]

The dissolute jockey
Bouncy bouncy man
Mr Woodentop
Double or nothing
Gnomes and Gardens
Yes miss
Grumpy jiver
Wet mackeral

My partner in crime is better at names than me - she remembers real names.

The quiet storm (never says a word when dancing)
