Killer Nicknames

What sort of nicknames do y'all like to give to the killers? I know there are a few that are well known throughout the community, but I'm curious if anyone has some unique names.

I'll start with a few of mine

Hillbilly = Billy boi

Dredge = Dreg (think Greg)

Demogorgon = Demogargle

    In spanish community we have some funny nicknames for them (some of the nicknames are know for almost everyone in the community).


    Wraith = Patitas

    Nurse = Nurse (but pronouncing Nurse in spanish instead saying Enfermera which is her spanish name)

    Pig = Piggy

    Leatherface = Pelopolla (you better don't search for the meaning)

    Demogorgon = Demo or Demochocho

    Pyramid Head = Cabeza Dorito


    The rest of the killers are called by their spanish names or the english names.

    Never gave it some thought, but I may have a couple or so…let me think:


    Clown: Fat boy

    Yea, that was my only one unfortunately. Everyone else I just use an abbreviation of some sort like “Meyers” for MM, or “Demo” for Demogorgon. Nothing original. When I used to play in SWF that’s how I would call out Clown to my friends if I spotted him first: “It’s fat boy.” They would all get a chuckle out of that one, lol.

    I use Bubba, Billy, Slinger, PHead, Nemmy and Demo regularly. Sadako instead of Onryo, Myers instead of Shape, of course. Guess I like the shorter nicknames.

    Oni is Fat Ass or Gordo to me. He reminds of a former manager at my employer who had those nicknames. The former boss had the same presence and was just as noisy as the Oni.
