Nicknames due to being an Aspie?

Post Reply New Topic

I was wondering if anyone has any nicknames that come from the fact that they are an aspie? My least favorite one is "The Masturbator" because I have a habit of rocking back and forth in my chair in class.

My school is the magnet for special ed students... with all the down syndrome kids coming into the class every day to collect the trash, nobody really notices that I'm an aspie... just incredibly funny...

I usually don't pay much attention to others thoughts and opinions. When I attended elementary school though, I used to have a niack-name or two due to my otherwise wierd behaviour. This has become less frequent, although I now am bothered with the fact that people go on about the way I run and how I'm not able to catch a ball in PE class. For some reason people think that I am afraid of the ball.

I have never had a knick name in school but my son is sometimes called, "Robot".
Some of the kids call him this because if his stiff movements and monotone voice but they don't seem to mean any harm by it. They treat him pretty well, actually.

The kids in your school must be a bunch of jerks! That's ridiculous.

i used to be called "The Freak" just for being weird, in general. it still makes me feel really nervous when i hear someone say the word "freak," even though i left school nine years ago.

People usually call me "Yao Ming" because I'm tall and I'm asian (although people mistake me as Chinese). But I've never gotten any nicknames related to AS, most people aren't aware I have AS, though they might be aware of some of my weird traits.

weirdy
weirdo
That shy girl
That girl that never talks
That girl without a tongue
(The above three were primary school names)
SNU

and proabbly a whole lot of others behind my back

Let's see... freak, weirdo, loser, geek, nerd, nigel (apparently means someone with no friends)... the list is endless.

Doc (because of an unusually intelligent friend who decided I sounded like her father, a Ph.D.)

Dex (chosen pseudonym that caught on after articles were published in the school paper)

Freak, Geek, Weirdo, Idiot

The Quiet Kid in the Corner

The Shy Kid

Klutz

L Squared (for having "two left feet," whatever that means.):roll:

Marian (the Librarian) (for always reading)

Ref (for referee, for always insisting that rules be followed and getting very upset when they weren't.)

ah, and ret*d

Rocky Raccoon was one for my temper.
I could wear that one no problem. I was kind of proud of that label. I was even thinking of using it as my username.

But not these, the ones I hated were Silly Sully or Sillivan, they brought the Rocky Racoon out of me.

Other nicknames which had nothing to do with aspergers four eyes or geeky eyes because I wore glass, or spider eyes for my hairy eyelashes

mainly i was called twitch because i have mild territs syndrome.
there was Rocky. i got into a fight because this new guy was picking on a musslium girl in high school and i got a sweet black eye.
then there was Molbarrow man because i wore brown jeans and a white t-shits to school. they were comfortable! so sue me!
then Moby dick. we were at a pool for sixth grade graduation and i was swimming and some dude said i looked like Moby Dick, the name just stuck.
there were more but those are the ones i can remember

I was also called many bad things. I was hurt by it then, years later I felt sorry for them, these days I just see it as yet another example of how the world is not as it should be.

Cockney
Limey
Scouser
Beatle
Guttersnipe
Nerd
Stoner
That Passive Girl Stuck in the Late 60's. I was called that a lot, in Grade 11.
Hippie, in Highschool
Little Langley Mod, after Highschool.
