What nicknames did you have for your school teachers?

[reecejackox]

If any

We called one of our teachers brownie because her name was Mrs brown.

 

[low-key]

I cant think of any in School for the teachers but in the Navy the LT Commander in charge of us, had a huge birth mark on one side of his face, we called him spot

 

[verleniahall]

None, but one of the section managers when I worked at Dillard’s was HORRIBLE and his name was Rick - so everyone called him Rick the *ick or Rick the prick - even the other section managers

If any

We called one of our teachers brownie because her name was Mrs brown.

Oh my, I cringe now, but one of my English teachers had a habit of blinking his eyes real fast when he got agitated at the class, and of course we loved it and instigated it. We called him Blinky, and no one used his name - somehow he knew it too, which made it more hilarious.

But, he actually was nice, is still living, and went to our 50th class reunion. Guess he forgave us!! Yes, I'm from old school!!!

Never to their face, but one of my teachers had been known as "hose nose" to students for many years.
My wife had a teacher that was known to students as "fish lips".

Mr Debolt was Mr. Dead Bolt. He taught science and his class was sooo boring. As an adult I now realized he was insanely smart and was having a hard time bring science down to a Jr. High level. High Schoolers loved him. He was a really nice guy. We called our PE teacher a not nice name. I do feel bad about it as an adult. Jr High kids are awful.

Nicknames were big for teachers and students. The faculty ones I can recall at the moment are Mrs T, Sweaty Vetty, OD, Shaky Head Ed, Eddie the Eye, Bing Bing Bing (Ricochet Rabbit), Lucy, Mr Fleabrain, Jolly Wally, Mr Moose, The Hoc, Mrs DD, Troy Boy, Bosto, Sarge, Olive Oil, Mrs Weird, Mr Um, T.H.E. Mole and The Skull. Most were takeoffs on names, some based on physical attributes.

Only one I knew of was Psycho Sayak for Mr. Sayak in grade 5. He had a bunch of jars in a storage closet that had pig fetuses and hearts and stuff.

Father "Jar Head". An ex WW II Marine who became a priest.
Sister Mary Frankenstein. She was tall, hulking, and carried a metal ruler like a Roman Gladius .

 

[LongLiveRafiki]

I can't remember more than maybe 2 of my teachers real names let alone their nicknames. I do remember a teacher though who told a story about how when someone says or does something rude around her, instead of throwing an insult/rude comment back, she responds, "nice head." She said it was because it couldn't be taken negatively and people wouldn't know how to respond. Of course, saying that around a bunch of teens, they all had other interpretations of her response and I do recall there were some inappropriate nicknames for her after that, though I don't remember specifically what they were.

Father "Jar Head". An ex WW II Marine who became a priest.
Sister Mary Frankenstein. She was tall, hulking, and carried a metal ruler like a Roman Gladius .

Sister Rosalie. Nicknamed Crackling Rosie (the Neil Diamond song) because she would crack the wooden ruler across your knuckles if you misbehaved.

Sister Mary Idalyia. (Eye-dall-ya) She too was a tall hulk of a woman. We were learning about Attila the Hun and some boy called her Idalyia the Ton.

Later in high school. Mr. Moussard He was kind of a jerk so someone came up with the name Mean Mister Mustard (Beatles song)

 

[elphaba91]

We called our drama teacher Mr Wentford ‘Wenny’ and one of our choir teachers ‘JT’ as they were her initials (some of us were in a choir she conducted outside of school so it was good to have a name that worked for both settings!).

 

[Snowflakey]

My DD (25) is a 3rd grade teacher. The kids call her Miss Megan. She's pregnant now so some call her Miss Momma

 

[elgerber]

I can only remember one, but I can't type it here. Let's just say she was not well liked.

 

[J'aime Paris]

Had a high school Algebra 2 teacher that the class nicknamed "Grape Ape"
She was a large woman that wore the same purple outfit about 2-3 times each week.
Looking back...not very nice of us kids...

 

[luvnwdwgal]

None that I would be able to post here.

 

[apirateslifeforme]

My junior year American history teacher was NOT a nice woman...clearly had her (few) favorites and treated everyone else like garbage. She even slapped kids. She was known as the Red-Headed Nazi Troll (and another name, a play on her actual name, that is not DIS-friendly).

The planetarium teacher, Mr. Yankee, was known as Mr. Yank Me and Mr. Rogers. He looked and spoke just like Mr. Rogers and back in the day, he was mocked by students. I feel badly about that now (although I did not join in)...I see now how much he enjoyed his job and he really was a good teacher and all around nice gentleman.

Similar to Brownie, two of my teacher's had shortened last name nicknames. One is too identifying to post, but the other was "Andy" short for Mr. Anderson. I still think of those teachers by the nickname if I think of them 40 years later. I've kept in some contact with one of them over the years since he was friends with my parents. I love that the nicknames were truly because we loved those teachers and didn't diminish respect for them at all.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I remember having a teacher named "Mrs. Dunn"... sometimes we called her "Mrs. Dumb". We were not too creative.

 

[DisneyHardin]

My 11th grade English teachers first name was Gigi. We all referred to her as Geeg
