I got "Doc" in my old company, because I was the only one that went on and did more than the mininum amount of training!

I would say it's more of an epithet than a nick name. :p

Hoop ....

My chief calls me "Hoop" and I have no idea what it means.

Any enlightenment on the nickname?

I got tagged with McMedic or McRib, because back in the old days I did a fair amount of commercial voice over. Yep. I did a few McDonalds commercials and the word got out. It could be worse...

I have been termed "Monkey" after the trunk monkey commercial where he jumped out with the AED. Most have just shortened it to "Monk" though.

Almost every person calls me it, and a few nurses had no idea what my actual name was to the longest time. :p

Alright...I'm actually Tony Shalloub. Probably spelled that wrong, but I'm less than concerned at 416 this morning.

Robby Awesome. My best friend's mom gave it to me in HS. She called her son "Hot Shot" so we were Hot Shot and Robby Awesome haha. Everyone calls me Robby, it's what I've always gone by but at work I'm Rob, I've found patients are more receptive to me while wearing my glasses and introducing myself as Rob rather than wearing contacts and introducing my baby-faced self as Robby. Co-workers and ER staff still call me Robby though.

I tried to get them to put it on my uniform but they weren't having it :( Although I still have been known to introduce myself as Robby Awesome in the right situation with the right type of patient but generally it's just Rob.

My childhood nickname was Critter, started when my mom was pregnant with me. They didn't want to know if I was a boy or girl, so my dad kept referring to me as 'the little critter'. He still calls me his little critter 32 years later. And when I became a veterinary technician, he said it fit because now I'm a critter nurse.
