¿Is your name ruined forever?

my name is Dane. I really like my name because I've only met about 4 or so other people named Dane
But as a kid I was always Dane the Pain. its totally retarded now but I hated it growing up.
Then it was Dane the pain the boogerbrain. And just about anything else that rhymed with Dane which turns out to be a whole lot of things.

Other nicknames that I had were danish, daniak, and danal

Yep Cuncuna, here it was also broadcasted and the translation was "Nick El Pico".

I understand why it wasn't translated like that in Chile being that this word is harmless in Perú but I believe not in Chile.

Yeah, it has happened to me several times... my friends called me usually Memo ... and with it looots of jokes:

    I'm not comfortable with this, but in order to explain the aim of this thread, I must reveal some personal information. My first name is "Nicolás". People call me "Nico" (Nee - koh), wich is the short commonly used. And there was a very popular movie featuring a very young Tom Hanks in wich a character (male stripper) is named "Nico, el rico" (I'm not sure about how to translate it, but it is meant to be understood as something slightly obscene). This haunted me every year during highschool. After that, some idiot invented a rime as a joke on TV; "Nicolás, hasta atrás" (something like "Nick, balls deep"). After some time, they used only the name (Nicolás), and the laughing started spontaneously. My name, wich I like, ruined forever, since that joke is remembered until this day, not so much as in that time, but still. ¿Anyone else?
