Most Anglo Saxon nicknames are quite boring and are essentially shortened version of a persons name .examples :abs ,jazza,wazza,gazza,becks ,etc.occasiinally one may get a crearive nickname which is to do with a persons appearance or their their traits .

Somali nicknames are often more poignant ,sometimes offensive and non -pc.

See the article below from a fellow by the nickname of timacade.he brilliAntly captures the essence of Somali nicknames .

My predecessor in the president's office, another Brit, had a harelip. He was always known as Farurey, or Harelip.

:drakelaugh::russ::damn:
Faruuray faruuraha ku go.
That nickname always makes me laugh.

Somaali nicknames are the best hands down no competition.

I remember joining some olders/fobs in a game of football last time I was in Sweden, there was one dude who's nickname was: Siigeyste (Wanker)

My kili was gone, "Siigeeyste, waa cayartay"
