Mine is pretty awesome, due to my hair my college teacher and classmates all call me Sideshow Bob. Either that or Felix the Cat, as my first name is Felix.

My first name is Dan, and at my previous college a few people would call me Danimal. I'm also a twin, and since I'm close with my brother (he's my best friend) we are often just referred to as the twins.

I have a teacher who's 1st name is stan (which is what we call him), and at one point we started calling him Stanimal
