nicknames for neighbours

[TheCreamCaker]

Do any of you have nicknames for friends and/or neighbours? Over the years, we've had:

The Lottery Queen (she once won a few thousand and bragged about it for years)
Internet King (used to sit on his PC in the window - with no shirt on)
Father Ted (got a mass of white hair)
Roman Helmet (hair in that shape which is plastered to her head)
Mr Muscle (very petite and short man)
Honey Monster (huge woman with a moustache)
Big 'tache Slipper Man (no description needed)
The Mole (neighbourhood watch lady)
Barry the Bag (always shopping)

Not neighbours but we have a small access road which me and dh call blow job alley due to the fact we saw a young lad receiving one in it once

There's a couple a few doors down with a swimming pool who are known as the skinny dippers. We overheard the man and his mates comparing knob lengths once.
The Invisibles live opposite - been there over two years and we've never seen them.
There's The Weeds, who had their house extended and zuzzhed up but who's front garden is thigh deep in weeds.

My inlaws call the woman upstairs romeo cos she's always shouting to people from the balcony, I belly laughed at that one 😂

We combine the neighbours names into one, so for example (false names)
Jill and Andy next door are Jandy.
Sarah and Jamie are Samie and
Scott and Pam are Scam.

My parents live diagonally opposite 'The Criminal'.
Endless speculation about what nefarious acts he might be up to and where he might be going if he leaves the house.

Bitch tits and cock waffle. They hate my trees. Trying to get them cut down. I’ve been here 14yrs. They’ve been full height for 14yrs and it’s only in the last 4 they’ve become a problem. Early Retirement clearly turns sane people into absolute arses.

Oh god, yes.

Firework Twat (any excuse and they’re out)
The Kids (probably about 30 but moved into a much older road)
Tree Bastards (cut down most of a beautiful tree straight after moving in)
Mr Man (nice guy whose name we can’t ask after speaking to him already for three years)
That Lot Opposite (new and not very nice neighbours)
Weird Dave (self explanatory)
Van Dave (as opposed to Weird Dave)
Auntie Pat (no relation, don’t know her, but she passes a lot and looks like she must be someone’s auntie)
Exhaust Boy (has ridiculously noisy car)
Brian on the End

@Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiivf every day I'm hoovering'
(Said/sang to the tune of Everyday I'm shuffling) our next door neighbour literally spends hours upon hours hoovering all weekend, every weekend.

So funny.

Laughs much at all.these nicknames.
Brilliant thread

• laughing so much

We have a frosty face !! Never smiled a day in her life. A real pop the ball.

Beside us we have:
“Frizzy Lizzy”
“Zig a zig ah”
“Rubber necker”
“Shifty”
“Them with the 2 retrievers”

We have the ‘Australian knob’ across the way from us. He wasn’t Australian but went there once years ago and still crowbarred it into nearly every conversation.

‘The sisters’ live next door on one side. ‘The gobbies’ live the other side. ‘Porsche man’ lives a few doors down.

This thread makes me wonder what our nickname is

We have

Them over the road
Pot john

Alfonse for annoying neighbour who likes to make out he is posher than he is. Also called “lord of the manor’.

Shrek and Fiona.
"Our little activist" and her partner "Comrade Malcolm".

We used to have The Boswells*, a couple with one older teenage son who owned seven cars and parked one in the garage that was always being tinkered with, three on the drive and three on the road.

Watching them getting the cars lined up on the drive was a wonder to behold as they (and we) only lived in an average semi but they always got them all lined up in a row (I’m very spatially challenged!) They then used to shuffle the cars in and out and up and down the street according to whichever one they were using that day. It was like watching a military manoeuvre. They never, of course, actually parked outside their own house as they ‘didn’t want to obstruct the view’ (of my garden across the road!) and anyone who tried to park outside their house was given very short shrift. Not very neighbourly in an area where parking was at a premium.

*You have to be of a certain age to remember The Boswells from Bread!

Gary - no idea what his name was but he looked like a Gary.

When we first moved into our previous house, our next door neighbours introduced themselves. The trouble is we could only remember Brian's name. So we referred to them as Brian and Thingy next door. Finally Christmas came around and we were relieved to get a card from them. We opened it together and both said out loud "Oh yeah, Carol!"

Hot Couple - couple in their 40s who work out a lot nearly actually put my foot in it calling them this to their face once
Gaz - man about town who washes his car on a seemingly daily basis
Frank Spencer - harmless fellow who is always building and fixing things noisily and had the best house on the street now looks like a workshop
The Snobs - couple who have noisy conversations about all the work they have done to their house and how much It cost
I always thought it was just us who did the nickname thing !

Happy man…..he’s really not,

Zero Dark Thirty…..ex army vet

Nemesis….because DH hates him

My Dad used to work in a factory….used to make me laugh with his names for people. Best was mr Pastry who was always buying cakes for the managers.

The Screamer

Yes!

Among our neighbours, we have:

• Dirty Mike: thus named as he is an awfy young man for his hole (his name isnt Mike 🤣 nicknamed from The Other Guys).
• Stauner McGregor: double of his name sake.
• Charlotte the harlot: had an affair with Dirty Mike, is now shacked up with Stauner McGregor.
• Spanner: works night shifts off shore, struggles to sleep, so is fond of re-arranging his garage (randomly, has an entire wall of spanners in said garage) at 2am.

The knobheads.

The Man with the Giant Skull (he has a giant skull on a shelf in his front room).
Later joined by the Woman with the Giant Skull, the Baby with the Giant Skull, and the Cat with the Giant Skull.

We have Mr & Mrs Fussy - he cleans and polishes his car every few days while she bleaches the garage floor at 8 am. They usually put at least 3 x 1L empty containers in the recycling every week.
Born again Christian - plays religious songs at full volume all the time.
Tom - as in peeping tom, stands in his greenhouse looking up at a teenager's bedroom in the morning, if my dad goes out he tells him he's checking on the thermometer.
