Nicknames...

29th March, 2015.

"I love you puchu". "And i love you babu "

well, these are some of the things I/we always hear in metro, or around the inner circle of c.p or India gate, or any other place  infested with love birds. I am talking about the nicknames.

Nicknames, as I know, are just the token of many PDA we see throughout our daily lives. It starts with our parents naming us at home, which sounds ridiculously funny, and is continued by our friends at school, then college, then, if we are lucky enough, the better halves take up the legacy and it presumably stops there. Yes, at times, it is continued by others too, but that is somewhat exceptional. Nicknames aren't used for shortening our names to ease up things, it used... well, no idea why they are used, but they are fun!

So, out of sheer compulsion of my brainworm, i took a paper and started jotting down the nicknames i got and i gave to people. IT. IS. RIDICULOUS! I have no idea why, but the night is long before i sleep, so here is the list. I did it on a chronological manner. Here goes.

Nicknames I got-

1. Pancham
2. Bhootnath (don't even dare to ask!)
3. Gonsha (dafaq that meant jethu?)
4. Haddock
5. Kelo (like gonsha wasn't enough)
6. Mahesh (school)
7. RDX (took explosive fire crackers to school, Rawat sir gave it)
8. Bhowmu
9. Mr. Holmes
10. Psyche
  that's it.

Nicknames I gave to people I can call friends or close to me or i can connect with, though in fairness, all of them were given in college years, so, not much.

1. Darwin (dishant)
2. Baniya (Shiv)
3. Old Sport (bhai, he had a nickname already)
4. Nastenka (well...)
5. Tilottoma (erm...)
6.Bohemian (hmm.)
7. Doc (well, you're good)
8. Narcissus (hah! can't forget this one!)
9. Lady Marion (still need to find the answer why this name?)

and that is it. well, 4,5,6 was for one singular personna.

Well, it is late in night, 1.54 am now, need to go now... Ta!

p. s well, i intended to post this, and finally got the time... now i need to get my meds and sleep like a horse. it was meaningless as a blog indeed!
