A nickname is the heaviest stone that the devil can throw at a man. It is a bugbear to the imagination, and, though we do not believe in it, it still haunts our apprehensions.

Did you ever notice that guys always get nicknames that stick. Especially in high school, and if they dont get a nickname theyre usually called by their last names. Girls never get nicknames like MRS..., BIG...., some alteration of their name... etc.

The people who are called by their last names isnt so bad, however those that are titles can be detrimental. Its can be easy if you are given a title and then you live up to that name. You become your nickname, or always have to be that nickname. As time goes on that can be bad because it holds you to that title and prevents you from changing into who you really are supposed to be.

To be honest my gf's have given me nicknames before just between us and I only have about one that sticks. At first I was a little envious that guys always get these cool names but I dont know why guys do it so maybe its better girls dont adopt that trend!
