What nicknames do you call your killers?

Greetings DbD players, it's time for a new question!

If I see a Hag in my game, I'd be like "It's Haggy". What about you? Do you have nicknames for your killers? Feel free to share.

    Me and my friends have a couple of names for some of the killers:

    Hag = Hagitha 🤣

    Nurse = Nursula (as in Ursula with an n in front of it)

    Hillbilly = Billy

    Plague = Vommy Mommy

    Victor = Smeagul / The Bebe

    Trapper = Le Trapper (usually in a French accent, dunno why lol)

    Freddy = Frederick

    Pig/Amanda = Piggy

    Demogorgon = Demo


    For survivors, we sometimes joke around whenever a surv queues up in the lobby with us/we play as a specific surv:

    Meg = Megan / Megara

    Dwight = Dwighty-poo

    Jake = Parkman

    Nea = we just pronounce Nea weird the whole time, we pronounce it differently than the way everybody else does, we don't pronounce it as "Nee-a", we pronounce it as "Ney-a" for some reason, think I started pronouncing it that way by accident and the rest followed suit (although they got me into the game, although I knew about it from the launch from Youtubers playing it together - my friends played the game a bit before me and then I joined them).

    Claudette = Claudetty / De-tjie (in Afrikaans, so a lot may not understand that one)

    Bill = Billiam

    David = We pronounce it like Moira pronounces David in Schitt's Creek, just because we find it funny

    Tapp = Tepp

    Jeff = My friend always makes the "my name is Jeff" joke

    Yui - Yoohooooi

    Steve = Schteve / Stephen

    Zarina = Used to call her Jasmine cause the one cosmetic looks a lot like Princess Jasmine's outfit from Aladdin


    We also have a couple of things we say when we see on which map we load into:

    The Game = "You wanna play a game?" / "Let's play a game, shall we?"

    Dead dawg saloon = The Wild West

    Macmillan = Mackie-millan

    Backwater swamp = "Get outta my swamp" (reference from Shrek)

    Lerys Memorial = Leryyyys (again in a French accent...apparently we think we can speak French a lot of the time🤣)

    Haddonfield = "Ughhhh, okay, here we go guys" 🤣

    We also have a nickname for Coldwind Farm, but it might upset some people, so not gonna repeat it here. Some may find it in poor taste.


    My one friend played against Nem for the first time last night and called the zombies zoomer boomers (they took a particular liking to him, they only seemed to target him 😂)

    I like to change my name to BootyBabyBubba sometimes when I use Bubba.

    Otherwise as survivor when I see these killers:

    Bubba = Boobiss

    Huntress = Beach Ball Bi---

    Pig = Piglet

    Billy = Silly Billy

    Demo = Demogorgiss

    Hag = Hagatha

    Legion = Leg-E-On

    and that's about it, everyone else I call them by their actual names for the most part.

    Vommy mommy for plague is classic


    I tend to call survivors by one of their perks. Example Adam will always be Deliverance. David is Dead Hard, Jeff is Breakdown, Meg is SB, you get the picture 😂

    I don't have any nicknames for killers...

    I think the closest one I've ever had was when I saw a Legion and sighed "it's pain in my [BAD WORD]"

  • worriedfeng03
    worriedfeng03 Member Posts: 82

    I sometimes refer to Pig as piggy or oinkers, and then I like to call Trickster "Flopster" and say to him in my head that his album tanked.

    Then there are the usual swears I like to call them in my head.

    Demopuppy would have to be the best nickname for Demo.

    I think I'm in the minority when I call Bubba Leatherface. I guess, being from Wisconsin and hearing all the references to Ed Gein in relation to the film, I never saw him as "Bubba". On a similar note I also call The Pig Amanda. I was a big fan of the Saw movies a decade before this game was released, I can't picture Shawnee Smith under the costume and think "Oh hey look who's chasing me, it's Pig".

    I also call The Doctor Doc.

    ...I guess that's it. I'm not very imaginative, am I?

  • Surginou
