Does anyone else out there like to call their friends by names of anime characters? Or is that something unique to my odd small town and my circle of friends? If you have them, post them here. Wanna know mine?

Rosiel, Jakotsu, Kakei, Kadaj, Fred Luo, Harry, Ryuichi (na no da ^-^), Suzu, Mizuki (not really proud of that one...), Aoshi, Muraki, Belial, Hana-chan, Watari, Yzak, Dilandau, Shesta, Kimblee (not really proud of that one either...), Kurama, Lukia, uhhhhh...

Well that's all I can think of for now. I have them all written on my math binder and that's at school so I'll have to look later. ^-^

P.S. - Do you think I have enough? XD

Yes. My friends and I have been calling each other names from Love Hina. i.e. I am Keitaro because everyone loves to hit me, my "sister" is Su because of how ecentric she is, another girl is Naru because of how often she used to hit me, the most inocent person in the club we nicknamed Shinobu, one of the girls my friend likes is Sara because of how she seems to always being ploting something. That is all that I can remeber right now. I think you need at least three more. ;-)

My friend and I permanently call eachother names from anime and videogames....I can't remember the last time we used our real names. ^_^ My name is Iori(from KOF)/Yuki(from Gravi) and she is Rock Howard(from Garou)/ Shuichi(Gravi again) It's fun esp. when people look at us weird.

When I was in high school, and somewhat now, my friends used to call me 'Professor Tomoe'. ^^

My real name is Karin...
which... incidentally I didnt know was a Japanese name until I started reading "Bleach"

Yeah, i used to call my friend Aiaka (from tenchi) and her friend Ryoko. they fought sooo much but they were so close. Weird.

03-16-2006, 07:51 AM
My friends would call me Serena (Dub Sailor Moon), Ren (Trigun), and others that I can't really think of right now. We gave eachother many names but I can't remember them now. :p :o

My friends and I give each other nicknames all the time which sometimes are anime nicknames. I know that I've been called Hanajima (Furuba) before. But there aren't many I can remember right now.

The one I do remember is what I've nicknamed my baby brother. I like to call him 'Kyon-Kyon." I read him Furuba sometimes and when I say 'Kyon-Kyon,' he repeats it in this high-pitched, giggly baby voice and it's soooooo cute! He responds to it too... :p

I used to call my one friend Naru, because she always punches me (HARD!!) whenever I annoy her :p

Jon Tsuyo
03-16-2006, 08:13 AM
My friends and I use original character names from our own series. My name is Jon, but my friends call me Jon... Maybe I should explain, my real name is like John, and my character, Jon Tsuyo, his name is pronounced with a long 'o', like Joan. And I call my friend Pesty, short for Pestilence. I've also been known to be called Mr. Kim-Kims, from Azumanga Daioh!... SO CUTE! If you've never read/heard of it, find it, like now.

As a joke sometimes I'm called Captain Kawanakajima after the city of the same name in Japan because it's a mouthful.

Murasakivie
03-16-2006, 08:24 AM
I named my first cat after Momiji from Fruits Basket. Haha, irony!

My friends and I don't really call each other nicknames from anime/manga, but we'll spend hours on end figuring out with anime/manga character we're like.

kariuchiha
03-16-2006, 08:26 AM
yes i do.. thats all me and my friends call each other... i go by kari (digimon) i know thats really old.. but i think it will always be one of my favorites ^_^

AshuriiDiru
03-16-2006, 03:21 PM
Hehe I have my math folder now so I'll be able to put the rest up. ^-^ K here we go:

Karasu, Ristu, Jizabel, and then my others that I get called most often, Ashmo and Ashurii, after my real name ^-^

Oh and sometimes Miss Manson but that's not anime related...

Kairi
03-16-2006, 03:36 PM
The anime nicknames i've had are Momo (Xenosaga), Lumiere (Kiddy Grade), Rika (Digimon XD), uh, Rikku (Final Fantasy X, X-2), Ren (DearS), Marlene and Aerith (Final Fantasy; Advent Children) and, Kairi! Which is the nickname I use now, which is from Kingdom Hearts ^_^. Most of my nicknames were from the anime (or game for that matter ^_^) that I liked at the time O_O; X3

We call one girl at school Kenshin because, well, she looks like Kenshin with her red hair and all.

03-16-2006, 04:03 PM
I sort of gave myself my nickname and my friends call me it. My nick is Akira, my friends are Panda and Taiga, and then there is Nee-chan ^^

03-16-2006, 04:08 PM
No offense to anyone who do do this, but my friends and I think it's ridiculous to take a character's name .. especially when you try to imitate that character (by saying their signature phrase or whatever). That's just how we think.

Keitaro
03-16-2006, 05:10 PM
My friends use to call me Tenchi from Tenchi Muyo! cause I was a nice hard working guy.... And Iroically I still am.

MewKotoni
03-16-2006, 05:31 PM
Not really. Sometimes I'll come op with a random name for one of my friends, like once I called one of my Internet friends "Sasuke-kun" for no real reason at all.

PurutoChan
03-16-2006, 05:49 PM
I got nicknamed Puruto (Pluto in English)...

(insert long explaination: Sailor Pluto, the planet, incidents with the number of sisters i have and where I am placed in the family line, Pluto in Armitage III, etc.)

Then they started calling me P-chan... which happens to be a pig in an anime that I can't stand and wish to gouge my eyes out everytime I see it. No offense to Rumiko Takahashi fans. :o

~Puruto-chan<3

Saikyo
03-16-2006, 07:58 PM
My friend occasionally calls me Aoshi and I call him Saito. We also happen to call each other nicknames from many other shows...

blackmoon07
03-16-2006, 08:08 PM
I wish i had some kind of anime nickname... but i haven't found one yet that will suite me... *tears tears* But my friend has a cool name (Hoshu) Its something different... ( I name my cat BOB(not really a fancy name) from Hyper Police) I luv u BOB

Ichigotsu
03-16-2006, 08:30 PM
Ocassionally i'll call someone by an anime name, but it never sticks. This is a cute idea though, so maybe i'll try and make it work^-^

FlyingBunny
03-16-2006, 08:49 PM
I like 2 call my bff Princess Tutu cuz her name means dukky^^!

My sis does she has Tokyo mew Mew names! Lol! I used to with sailor moon! every one wanted to be her! I likes Venus!

Mistress of Darkness
03-16-2006, 09:21 PM
ME and my friends dont call each other by the names of anime chars. we make up our own Japanese names, like mine is Chibara, and my friend Ash is Ryuuchi. . ., but I think were just weird, lol

Kychan
03-16-2006, 09:25 PM
Well, I have a broad nickname at school with the older students, they call me "Manga Girl" hehe.

Kychan
03-16-2006, 09:27 PM
Yeah and like Mistress of Darkness said, we make up our own. Like the two I've used a lot are Kyume (Ky, hence Kychan) and Leiako (Leia) and my friends are Misuki (actually that was from Angelic Layer), Sanura (actually it's Egyptian but I think it sounds Japanese x3), and Yukii.

DarkFlare
03-16-2006, 09:28 PM
Mmm, my friend and I also have a habit of calling each other by video game character names, ranging from characters from games like Suikoden, Soul Calibur to Street fighter.... Not so much anime names though... *thinks*Nope, can't think of any right now T___T

kitsunemiko18
03-16-2006, 09:32 PM
I call all my friends by anime names!!! I love it! There's Rikku, Kagome, Penguin-sama, Tatara,and I cant rmemeber the rest right now....:p

everyday_dream
03-21-2006, 09:52 PM
My friends and I never really got into that kind of thing, but for a short while one friend would occasionally call me "Tira" and I'd call her "Chocolate". Our guy friends were "Carrot" and "Gateau". Can you tell we were reading Sorceror Hunters at the time?

This same friend did have one anime nickname that stuck for some time. She was called "Ed" because of her short red hair.

03-21-2006, 09:56 PM
I call my friend Tsume because she love him so much. And I call my dog Momo,even though his name is Cloud. <(' '<) *dance kirby, dance!*

Menstrual Cramps
03-21-2006, 10:14 PM
Only name I get called from time to time is Sakaki.
One of my favorites by far so it doesn't bother me. [x
Other than that, MC is a nickname while it's not Anime Related. xD~

baka101
03-21-2006, 10:27 PM
Well, my freinds and I have anime-related names that we use on forums and when we talk to eachother in real life. All my freinds call me Baka.

MomoxD
03-22-2006, 12:33 AM
"Tsu-chan." It's long story. As there is no way to spell out my Asian name in English, it sounds like "wing" and my friend was like "Wing = Tsubasa." He then shortened it to "Tsu" lol, so I'm "Tsu-chan"

Vicious
03-22-2006, 12:42 AM
Yeah Leon-kun or just Leon (FFVIII + Resident Evil)

Not really Anime but yeah T_T

One of my friends call me poop or stuper. T_T

Miaka_28
03-22-2006, 06:51 AM
my friends sometimes call me "Miaka" because i had been using this nick since highschool! And so, if ever someone mentions Miaka, they know it is me..^_^'

Mitzuki
03-22-2006, 07:32 AM
My name Sounds like an anime name already XD so it cant be nick'd doh my friends call me Mitz (mitzuki in short cuz thats my name) or Aya XD cuz i have the same personality as Aya from furuba

Aratos
03-22-2006, 07:36 AM
I've been called keitaro before. Something to do with the horrible glaring similarities between myself and Urashima. And for some unknown reason i used to get called psyduck back when I was at primary school.

Shuragawa
03-22-2006, 07:37 AM
i call my friend sango and she calls me by my rp name which is shi shuragawa

lord_neko_fuffy
03-22-2006, 08:03 AM

LadyTanyata
03-22-2006, 08:50 AM
My friends sometimes call me Hatori from Friuts Basket and two of them are called Shigure and Aya.

Miako
03-22-2006, 08:54 AM
My name Sounds like an anime name already XD so it cant be nick'd doh my friends call me Mitz (mitzuki in short cuz thats my name) or Aya XD cuz i have the same personality as Aya from furuba

This is the same for me. My name already sounds like an anime name and there is really no way to cut it shorter. Pls, I like my name. ^_^ Except...when people mess it up after I say it 50 times. :(

Mitzuki
03-22-2006, 08:58 AM
XD i sometime's call ya mia when i type

Miako
03-22-2006, 09:03 AM
Correction. ^_^ Sometimes Mitzuki-chan calls me Mia!!! Sometimes Kurama does too now that I think about it...and we are related haha.

AnimeDudde
03-22-2006, 01:54 PM

well we do call each other japanese words like OKYAN (manly woman) and BAKA-KA (stupid a-hole) since most ppl and all the teachers in my school have no idea what we are saying.

kakashi
05-11-2006, 03:27 PM
People call me Orochimaru because I like to bite people...No, JK!

xxenchantingxx
05-11-2006, 04:02 PM
Uhm...I use to be called Kagome but then I was like "SHUT UP MY NAME IS JENN, NOT KAGOME, YOUR DRIVING ME CRAZY *screams and runs away*" ...yea bad experiences...Neway after that people started calling me meroko (the hothead in Fullmoon sagashite), but people call me winry now.

Yuuki
05-19-2006, 06:00 PM

05-19-2006, 09:09 PM
My friend started calling me Major from Ghost in the Shell because I made paper cranes one week when I was bored in class.

Shizu-san
05-19-2006, 10:18 PM
Heh, the majority of my group has Saiyuki nicknames. For example, I'm known as Hakkai. Which makes for some interesting conversations, since sometimes we use the wrong pronouns for each other. One gets weird stares in public when that happens, one does.

My friends also think I have rather evil tendencies (I have no clue what they're talking about, really) so sometimes they refer to me as Kira. I take that as a compliment. :P

Gookie
05-20-2006, 12:10 PM
My nickname is Momo, not from any anime, just Momo
most of my friends call me Momo
and one of my friend's nickname is Yuki
the one's from Fruits Basket
how wonderful

Kurama's fire miko
05-20-2006, 03:49 PM
Yeah, Shuichi from Gravitation. Miaka from Fushigi Yugi I realy don't know why some people call me that I'm nothing like her. Ummm Kagome from Inuyasha, and Sakura from Naruto (I get that from the way I fight over guys)lol

feder
05-20-2006, 09:30 PM
I'm Aya Fujimiya, Aya-kun, or just Aya. Heck, I refer to myself more as Aya than I do my real name.
The kun actually isn't really correct, but since Omi from Weiss calls everyone ~kun (I.E. Ken-kun, Aya-kun, etc), and my one friend is supposed to be Omi, I often get called Aya-kun by her.

I'm also: Tezuka-buchou, or just buchou.
I have a few more, like Hikaru from MKR, but we don't really use them.

AmeNoAki
05-20-2006, 10:05 PM
Me? I don't have any one refer to me as an anime anme at all, but my best friends from middle school and I have Japanese names...We were the four seasons...I was Aki(Autumn)....Then there's Natsu, Haru, and Fuyu...^_^

That's really cool! Another Momo ^^ Mine doesn't come from an anime either and my friends call me Momo as well. Hehe. :p

kariuchiha
05-21-2006, 10:33 AM

Ashton_Anchors

To my friends I am known as: Akira, Kurai and Kaze. My friend, whom shares the same name as I do, is Panda and our other friend is Taiga

DigiDigi
05-24-2006, 03:50 PM
Everyone i know calls me Digi because i love digimon, and since I started calling my brother Taro (like in FLCL) everyone calls him that now.

kakashi
05-24-2006, 04:19 PM
People call me Kaka...

SaSuNaRu
05-24-2006, 04:39 PM
People call me Kaka...


which is spanish for a slang word for poop...

(I don't find it funny, but I wear a Kakashi hoodie and my parents spent hours laughing about it.... Stupid adults... )

Hm... My nicknames are Karin-chan... *real name, with chan.... cuz it's japanese*

Ino...


Temari (b/c I'm mean, and my b/f is three years younger than me.... I'm always compared to the POSSIBLE relationship(?) of Shika/Tema)

and... Mimi... digimon.. XD

kakashi
05-24-2006, 04:46 PM
Yeah, poop...why? LOL

Khestrel
05-25-2006, 03:42 PM
None of my friends are anime or manga fans, so if I gave them a nickname from one, they'd have no clue. XD

I do call my fourteen year old sister To-chan, short for Toshiko, but that's because that's really her name. We're half Japanese, so we have Japanese names aside from our English ones. Whenever I see someone called To-chan in anime or manga, I have to make her watch or read it. ^^

Nekochii
05-25-2006, 08:33 PM
I've never had an anime nickname, and don't really want one. I'm quite fond of the name my mother gave me. It's not Japanese and dosen't end with chan or san but it will do.

HackerEd
05-25-2006, 09:02 PM
I became Ed in 8th grade (cowboy bebop ed, not FMA ed. Altho I'm like him too sometimes, minus the height issues) and my friend became Miaka because of her obsession with food.

KaYoKitten
05-25-2006, 09:12 PM
^-^ Of course! LOL, I've got Japanese nicknames, nicknames from my stories that my friends tell me I'm JUST LIKE, ZOMG (I'm being sarcastic >_>), and just a couple from manga/anime.

Lesse. I'm Koneko-kun (because I act like a guy more than a girl, hence the -kun, which is used on me a LOT), baka-onna, baka-koneko, Hina or Hina-kun for Japanese names. (My real name, Sarah, means "princess" in hebrew, hence hina)

Hmm...they call me Bri sometimes because I act like her. Also Angel, which was Bri's original name (I don't enjoy that). Mishu. Jirkle. Donald (don't ask, you reeeeeally don't wanna know).

And from manga/anime...
Kurama--YYH
Tohru-kun--Furuba
Fai--Tsubasa
Raenef--Demon Diary
Hisoka--Yami no Matsuei
Merle--Escaflowne
Shippou--InuYasha
Rini--Sailor Moon
Bi-Wal--Angel Diary

So, yeah, more than a few...just for kicks, I'll throw in some of my family's nicknames for me, too. >_> These aren't so funny. Piggy, Chewie, Wookie, Herb, Fred, Cupid's Folly, Stupidity Herself, Monkee Wench, and a few more nasty ones that I don't care to post. I'm not fond of nicknames.

Rem Akimichi
05-26-2006, 01:08 AM
^_^ I used to have Japanese nicknames (my favorite was Arisa, like Uotani Arisa) but my friends stopped calling me anything but my real name for a while. Then I started being called Rem, and now everyone calls me Rem. Although I didn't get it from Trigun, when I found out Vashs "mom"(figure) was called Rem it made me very happy ^_^ I even had her theem some playing on my journal for a while, but I took it down and then lost the file ;_;

Sango28
05-26-2006, 09:17 AM
XD This topic is fun! Some of my friends in school call me Sango 'cause I'm like a really huge Sango fan and stuff. Actually, they call me that because my aol screename is Sango with the number 28..but they have no idea about the show InuYasha.. o.0 xD

Foreordained99
05-26-2006, 10:14 AM
Kazumi doesnt really come from anywhere. I kinda put it together myself from the name Kasumi meaning mist, and then used the Z to make it like Kaze meaning wind. But then i discovered that the name does exist! Someone in FullMoon was called that...and someone in DetectiveConan^^

Kaoru
05-26-2006, 11:15 AM
Someone trys to give me an anime nickname in real-life I'll break their teeth. Really. It'd just seem weird getting called some weird Japanese name. I like my real name and that's all I'll respond to.

nikitia
06-29-2006, 02:53 PM
i don't think i've ever had a nickname, i had matrix nickname in highschool though... one of the girl's i knew called me Trinity, cause i wore a treanchcoat...actually a few ppl started to call me that when they heard it, never really caught on though.

Cura
06-30-2006, 04:08 AM
The only one I ever had was Yasha, short for Inuyasha. On account of how many pictures I had of the show. But that was about, 2 years ago. I liked the nickname though.

Whoa, lol.

Fighterspledge
06-30-2006, 08:57 AM
It's just kinda funny because the -chan, -kun, -sama honorifics seem to be the biggest part of the nicknames that come up with anime fans. It's also something that most people wouldn't pick up on unless they were in the know. You know? I'd get sempai alot cause I would carry myself with an, "older brother personality" It's kinda flattering really.

Momochi
06-30-2006, 09:12 AM
Hmm...interesting thred haha well i actually started out with two different nick names Momo(from all my rpging friends and anime friends) cause when i first cut and dyed my hair i looked like Momo from Xenosaga XD (not so much now that its a little longer) haha and Chi from my anime/j-rock friends (they said i act like chi from chobits alot which still puzzles me cause i think i'm alot like Bou from the j-rock band 'An Cafe' O.o) at school. Well it was getting hard to tespond to thoes two sepertly (i also have the nick name smane but dont ask on that one heh) so i figured i would just combine them and came up with Momochi which works very well for me ^^ only recently did i find out that Momo ment peach haha so i guess i'm 'peach blood' haha i gave the nickname 'Plumb' to one of my best friends she reminds me of the chobits plumb alot.

yeah my nickname history :p
