The neighbours opposite my parents are “The Parkers” because they have always been nosy Parkers.

one time they both came together to bring a parcel for us that had been delivered to their door. Cue my younger sibling shouting up the stairs “Mum, the Parkers are here!” And they hastily corrected saying “oh no, we are the Smiths or something one that”.

We are a crazy family of lots of adult kids and kids and grandkids, (my parents are foster carers), police have often rocked up, lots random parcels etc - so God knows what they call us. Probably the madhouse.

Baldy
Whatshername
Ladida (always singing (off key))
Spanielman (rude bloke, two dogs)
Silent H (never speaks, his name is Henry)
Mrs Bi fold (noisy building work and lots of bragging)
Mrs Pumpkin (grows veg in the front garden)

flightlessbrownbird · 27/05/2024 23:35

Not a neighbour in the traditional sense, but I live in a shared house with a guy I've dubbed "the Human Earthquake."

We had a real earthquake at 3AM a few months ago, something like a mag 5. I thought it was him doing his usual crash-bang routine, at least until my phone alerted me. Blush

Wulfeniii · 27/05/2024 23:36

We have Mr and Mrs Parking, The Pink Haired Bitch Across the Road, and The Miserable Fucker Opposite. Most of our neighbours are absolutely lovely so we call them by their first names.

nunsflipflop · 27/05/2024 23:37

We have the Clampits over the back of us.
Mrs Dressing gown (no matter what time of day you see her, she’s always wearing it.
Man of Many cars our next door neighbour, owns a cab firm and often has 4-5 cars on his front patio.

Thecatspjymas · 27/05/2024 23:37

We refer to the houses by the pets name usually

'What's going on over at Dave's house'

Dave is the cat

RosieBurdock · 27/05/2024 23:38

flossy888 · 27/05/2024 23:39

Wreck it Ralph and miss piggy 😅

TeenLifeMum · 27/05/2024 23:39

Grumpy pants

the alcoholic (but there’s two now so we have to specify at no2 or no9)

Mr pet toilet (shouted at us because there was dog poo on his door mat and wee up his door and he’s decided our dog did it despite him not seeing it and our dog never being outside without us… no one else gets dog poo on their doorstep but lots of dogs live here 🤷🏻‍♀️. I actually think it’s probably a fox)

YellowSunRays · 27/05/2024 23:40

We also have the Clampits, glad we're not the only ones - although wish we weren't 🙄Across the road is the Scumbag.
Otherwise, they're all OK and known by names.
I'm guessing now what they call us....

PC20 · 27/05/2024 23:42

When we moved in 20 years ago we named one couple Hyacinth & Victor.
When children were small we had to stop using those names...in case of consequences!
