Eric nickname


With regards to Heather's latest post, I think that this blog should put a high priority on reaching a consensus on a new nickname for Eric. The nickname needs to reflect an elusive, hard to catch quality, yet signal the ability to make the ladies swoon.

I propose "Smoke" but will consider alternate suggestions. Maybe "Smooth E" would work.

Eric is banned from proposing nicknames. You can't give yourself a nickname.

I'm still voting for trucker for Eric's nick name as it came from him giving his hat to a girl on a airplane.

Ryan said...

Trucker is tried and true. I'm just not sure it captures "the essence of Eric"

Maybe Eric could weigh in on this? We could give Eric veto power, even if he can't give himself a nickname.

I would be happy to veto anything that I don't like. I don't know if trucker really fits me but I'm used to it.

Heather said...

Smokey? That is terrible. Sorry Ryan but I vote against Smokey.

Matt said...

I say we go for Hansel. As in Derek Zoolander's arch nemesis.

Heather:

Not "Smokey", "Smoke".

Completely different.

Matt:

Hansel is not bad either.
