I don't really have any nick names... Sometimes, my "friends" call me Tardbox.

Lucas.

His whole name was Josh Lucas.

So, yes, for a while I could say I'm dating Josh Lucas.

(Incidentally he DID look a bit like Josh Lucas the actor: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0524197/).

Rikki. Yes, spelled like a girl or the mongoose. Usually when people read my name before they see me, they assume I'm female because of the spelling. For some reason, it seems weird to people that it's not short for Richard. I guess I never thought about just Rikki being a weird name until people started asking.

I used to get all kinds of butt-hurt when I was younger if people misspelled my name or called me Rick. It really doesn't matter to me much anymore after having the mistakes for 30 years. At my current job, my name is spelled Ricky on my paychecks. As long as the bank cashes it, I really don't mind.

As far as nicknames, the only one that has stuck for any amount of time (going on 10 years, actually) is Rikki Krakk Whore. Yeah, I know, now you have the song going through your head using my name. It started when I was young. I started playing the original Soul Blade, and kept getting the crap kicked out of me. So I practiced for day and night, and got good enough that anyone I knew who played me could barely get a hit in. My cousin started saying that he hated playing Sueng Mina on "Rikki Krakk" and the name has stuck with close friends.

I like the name Rikki, spelling and all. It's cool and unique.

You've never pushed or been pushed to be called Rikki-O? (Like Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky).

Not really. I had one girlfriend who mentioned the movysie to me, which was cool because she wasn't a horror/splatter fan at all. Her parents used to own a video store, though, so she ended up watching it.

I really never petitioned for any nickname. Rikki has always been fine with me:)
