Ah, sarcasm makes everything better …
I’ve always had a problem with people who choose their own nickname.
Including my own.
So just calling yourself a “Maverick” doesn’t really make you one. Hmmmmm.
i gave myself one just because i’m not fond of my given name
You can call me, and Betty when you call me, you can call me Al.
Just don’t call me late for dinner!
In “Good As Gold” Joseph Heller (“Catch-22”) definitively states that NO ONE can give himself a nickname - one character in the book tries to do it. It went kind for him kind of like it did for Lucasclone here - NOWHERE!
I cook for a living, the nickname given me? Chef Jeff.
