My name is Michael, but everyone calls me Mikey.

This is a totally natural and not in any way photoshopped picture of me. I'm Mikey. (canva)

In fact, nobody ever called me Mikey until I started working on the radio 10 years ago. Before that it was either Michael, Mike, or "that one fat kid who smells like soup and can't stop talking about Star Wars."

I'm kinda glad I grew out of that last one.

But having a nickname is a great way to sound a lot cooler than you actually are. For example, Let's say your name is Eugene. You would be quite a step up if everybody started calling you THUNDERSTUD, SUPERPIMP or E DAWG.

See how much of a difference a cool nickname can make?

Okay fair warning, not all of them are complementary. But hey, I didn't say that I would tell you only cool things. Consider it my journalistic integrity to tell you the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
