To have nicknames for my neighbours and ask what yours are for yours?

[Cantheowneroftheredcorsapleasemovetheircar]

Apparently most people in the UK have nicknames for their neighbours that they use within their household.

Mine are -
Their names - J & M (next door)
Next door not J & M (I actually know their names but still call them this)
Barky dog people
Penguin people
Policeman's family
Old boy

What are yours, and perhaps more interestingly... what do you think your neighbours call you?

Hordor, because the husband looks like Hordor from GOT.

We also have Shouty and That Horrible Man, because they are always shouting and screaming at each other and she always tells to him "you're a horrible, HORRIBLE man!"

Most of them are referred to by name, but we do have:

The Posh Toffs (bought a very fancy new build across the road, and have never deigned to speak to us)
The Mad Professor
The Special Christmas House Family
Chris the Carpenter

Linda next door is in danger of being nicknamed That Cowbag Linda, or Buddleia Linda.

There used to be an old lady who was universally known as Drunken Pat.

There's a very nice (but LOUD) woman who is a local councillor and does loads of good work. She also inserts herself into every single village event, usually brandishing a megaphone. Not sure why, because she has a big enough gob as it is. I call her the Town Crier.

They probably call me the Village Idiot! Or the Music Teacher. Or That Crazy Ginger Woman.

My upstairs neighbour is friendly, helpful, and built like a shed.

He's the Honey Monster.

Blaster man.
Weird Sam.

Not neighbours, but we do for parents on the school run.

I really like my next door neighbours and know their names but the ones next to them are:

Cat wanker
Mrs cat wanker

Guy upstairs is the Serial Killer

Shamboosy or Shaba - neighbour

Puff daddy - he still looks and dresses like P-Diddy

Perv - for obvious reasons

Aroma man - used used to walk past our house a few times a day and his perfume used to linger forever

Apple man - he had an apple tree in his garden

Candle - the kid’s name is Camrul, but our num used to call him Candle and the name stuck. It’s been 15 years and we still call him candle.

Hoo - my mum and our (late) neighbour of 30 years would call each other in the back garden by making noises. One would say hooo, the other would hooo back like owls and then they would meet in the back garden. She died last year and mums not hooo’d since.

The curry’s - the man’s name is Kari, but we call his family the Curry’s.

Shirley next door is proper next door. The ones the other side are the noisy ones (we're not sure how many of them actually live there, but loads in and out and they make a proper racket)
Previous other side was gobomatic because she never shut up and we could hear her wherever we were in the house. I've never seen anyone happier when the Bailiff arrived to evict her (my husband)

we have:
Leslie Ash (obvious reasons)
KeithKen - I keep forgetting which one is actually his name
Shameless
Juice - dead ringer for Juice off Sons of Anarchy
Evel Knievel
Leatherface
caravan creep
house of a million kids

At our old house we had Pink Skirt Lady because she wore the same pink skirt EVERY DAY. Eventually became shortened to PSL.

We also had Dog Walking John because he was called John and religiously walked his dog at the exact same time each day.

We have an Irish friend who came over once and was asking “what’s your man at number 8 up to” and it stuck so pretty much everyone else gets called “your man” or “your one” if they’re a woman, followed by their house number. Eg. I saw your one from number 12 earlier, I think she must have a dog now. Or “your man and your one from next door are getting divorced”

The Funny Family
Keeping Up Appearances
Gormo
The Chavs
The Scratters
Wanker with all the cars
The Hobbits
The Tarts
The Fat Family
Just a few of our neighbours over the years.

I've got
"man bun"
"rupert trousers" and "the parking witch"
plus a few others that I know by name, but just for specificity we say John, from up the street.

We use the actual names of all our neighbours except one set, who go by various names depending on what mood we're in:
The Oracle
Them next door
Him next door
Her next door
The Wessie
Neighbourhood watch

I dread to think what they call us 😂

Some on our street are:
Fatty Mcgee/ Bitchface (not a nice lady!)

The goths (because they always dress in black)
Benefit dodgers (walks his dog and pretends to pick the sh@@ up but this isn’t the main reason )
The pikies

awful really
However…
The ones we do like are by their actual names.

Ann's bitch
Fanny balls number 1
fanny balls number 2
Bitchface

My mum had a neighbour across the road, he was there the whole time I was growing up and for over a decade after I left home. She used to call him "the slug" and the way she pronounced it with such disgust and contempt in her Geordie accent was hilarious.

He really was slug like. He kind of reminded me of the slug-like "I don't want to see any paperwork on this" monster from monsters Inc. He was slow and slimy and really unpleasant and collected classic cars which he parked up and down the entire street.

Captain Flashheart
The Mad Hacker
Bloody Sally
Catman
Brian (his name is not Brian)

we know the names of most people on our street so try will be called by their actual names but in addition we have:
Posh house
shouty family
fake Pat
Tomato Man
Mr Yappy’s owners
Cherry booze family
new neighbours (not that new now!)
Courgette John (there is another John too so have to differentiate!)

Mr & Mrs Busybody
Mrs Brushup (she's always brushing her path)
The walking man
The miserable sods
The policeman

Builder who lives around the corner - we called him Fred West because unfortunately he looks like Fred West! Noisy annoying neighbours at the end of our garden we call The Munsters because they're ugly and rude!

Shitbox Steve, Angry Dad, John and Yoko, and 2 lots by their actual names. Oooh what might we be called good question! I'd like to think "lovely dog couple" but more realistically "middle aged chubbers"

Abusive Cunt - fortunately he died last year. Our street is a much calmer place now.

We also have a penguin, I can't believe someone else uses it!

We have "the rev", footballer's wife, and the name of a politician someone reminds us of.

I can't imagine what names people have for us.
I always worry people will assume I'm an alcoholic as I'm often still in pajamas all day due to chronic illness, but when I'm dressed with hair and makeup done I don't look like there's anything wrong with me.

I hope it's a name linked to our beautiful dog who died last year. He was 16 and walked at least once a day every day especially by DH so I bet someone in the street calls him something dog related.

Mrs Gungha Din (iconic Indian matriarch)

Mrs Manager (told me how she had a very important job as an area manger)

Batwoman - has a t shirt with the batman symbol on it.

My neighbours possible think I am a vampire as I seldom go out and mostly after dusk so I dont encounter any of them.

We have Smoky Joe next door cos he is always smoking in his garden (sometimes weed) and we can smell it

Next door to Smoky Joe are the Party Folk - when they first moved in they had a late/loud housewarming party, we were walking home from somewhere and one of the neighbours was in her front garden and said to us "oh dear, I see we've got some party folk moved in" and it kinda stuck 😁 The Party Folk have never made a peep since 😂

The other side of us are a lovely Australian family who we mostly call by their names but occasionally they are "The Aussies" (obvs)

There's also Creepy House but we don't know who lives there
