Apparently...

People also used to like to use rhyming names; thus, someone who was nicknamed Rich might further be nicknamed Hitch. Thus, Richard -> Ric -> Rick gave rise to nicknames like Dick and Hick around the early 13th century.

Sometimes people shorten my name to Claud, but I don't think of it as a nickname.

I'm trying to encourage people to call me Your Excellence... but I've been mystifyingly unsuccessful so far.

If you think about it, playing second fiddle to the X Factor means you're more musically talented than anyone actually on the X Factor. Two whole fiddles! Get you.

I have loads of nicknames. I don't know where to begin :laugh:
