If your name is Pete it is obligatory for the people around you to give you a nickname And it...

I have a friend called Pete and he is six foot six, so one of the nicknames I gave him was two meter Peter.

My friend Pete.

We call PIT, because our friend from Argentina had difficulty saying Peet..

I apologize for not following the formula, but I hope you will find it in your heart to allow this nickname to stick as all my friends love it..... Except for PIT that is.

Actually, I had a friend named Peter...and we brought his dad, George, into his nickname.....George's little Peter.

The trick is to never have a nickname that features your best attribute. That’s a sure way to get an ironic injury.
Eagle Eye Joe? Went blind.
Swift Thomas? Lost his legs.
Me? I’m having everyone call me Appendix Pete.

Hmm…I feel like there must be exceptions to this. For example, there’s a certain Pete who’s in a fairly prominent position that if I just say Drinky Pete, we all know exactly who it references. Just sayin’ 🤷‍♂

Not in the UK.
Then you have a mate named Paul who has no direction in life - like when he punched a waiter at TGI Fridays for dropping his bannofee tart.
