Name Abbreviations on DLF

Postby McCafsteez » Thu Jul 15, 2021 7:05 pm

Felt like starting a goofy thread about abbreviations/nicknames you’ve read on DLF for players’ names. I’ll start:

Nuk = Deandre Hopkins
CEH = Clyde Edwards Helaire
AJB = AJ Brown
DJM = DJ Moore

Bonus one I just thought of:

JaW = Javonte Williams :lol: :dance:

What abbreviations have you seen?

I like the abbreviations for guys that failed to launch/have long bleep names. AJ B. makes sense as does DJ M. Nuk is also at least his nickname.

Hendy/DaHen - Darrell Henderson
JJAW - JJ Arcega Whiteside
MVS - Marquez Valdes Scantling
ESB - Equanimeous St Brown
ASRB - Amon Ra St Brown

JJ for Justin Jefferson often confuses me at first look. Could also be Julio Jones, JJ Taylor, JuJu?, (hopefully not) James Jones…

A good idea is make an effort to have their abbreviations be at least 4 characters. Something like their name plus their number or add an special character like an exclamation point. (AJB11, AJB! or JJ18) This will make it easier to search the forums.

One of my pet peeves:

Would you trade Williams for Jones and a second?

I've always liked ODB for OBJ because it's technically wrong but continues to become greater and greater on so many levels!

ODB being used instead of OBJ irks me.
ARod being used instead of ARodge irks me. There’s no room for another ODB or ARod

I can see an abbreviation for certain dudes, but this notion that everyone has to have a cutesy nickname seems silly. Besides, how often is that guy's name going to come up anyway? :D
