I had a rather unpleasant nickname at school
which I don't care to repeat here. Kids are cunts, rich ones even more so.
I also don't like the diminutive of my actual name despite it being what all of my family and most of my friends call me. I think I've only had one nickname which I liked, which I got from playing rugby at uni.

From what I've seen of women's rugby
it was probably either Eyegouger or Clungebuster

Mini B
I drove a Mini at the time and I'm also really short. I said I liked it, not that it was imaginative.

Whatever you say, Clungebuster

Was it 'hooker'?
To be honest, I always assumed berk was a sort of derivative of your real name.

It sort of is
it's also the little blue dude from 80s cartoon Trapdoor, and a northern name for a total prat.

I was wondering what the hell I'd said to upset you
it's taken me a good 5 minutes to work out what the hell you're on about. Yes, it's that as well.

Trapdoor was fucking ace!
I used to love watching that, even when I was frankly far too old to be doing so.

The idiot thing reminds me
My sister was playing that "name the counties of England" flash game Jeff linked to ages ago, and she had forgotten Berkshire. I suggested that she should think of a word for an idiot, beginning with B. Her eyes lit up "Buckinghamshire!" she cried. I have not yet stopped mocking her.
