Chika whoooooo!??!
One of the first questions that people ask me when they meet me is: “What does your nickname mean?!”
Well, it’s not that it doesn’t have a specific meaning bad it’s like a pet name – dala3! I am not sure myself the true sense of the nickname bas it’s Mexican - Spanish :) !! “Dady’s girl” kinda!! I don’t know.
Why I choose it?! Well, at the beginning I remember asking Rami to use my real name then I sat down thinking of options & the name just popped up. So that pretty much sums up the story..
I had a group of friends, we hung out together a lot, one of them used to suddenly look at me & say: “Chiiika pappiiiii”! in a hoarse kinda like mafia voice.. funny huh! I never thought of using an alias bas this one was kinda unique..
To those of you wondering, hope this gives you comfort… Chikapappi lives, Chikapappi’s crazy & no good.. Chikapappi rox!!
THIS IS A TAG!! Share with us the stories behind your nicknames :)

Well my mum and brother call me a certain dala3 name- which is moshtaq mn esmi il a9li, the story behind it is, that my brother when he was young couldn’t pronounce my whole name, and another funny/cute name came as a result, SO CUTE, they still call me by it.

In American slang (outdated) “Chick” is a hot young woman. An “i” on the end means diminuitive, so a small hot young woman would be Chicki! That’s how I imagine you; small, but inflammable.

Ooops! Flammable!

That’s a cool explanation - I like that name :D!
I went through various names and I guess, the last one pretty much explains itself ;)
Was here yesterday and wanted to leave some comments, but my connection was wonky and the whole thing got lost, second time I couldn’t load the page no more, ggrrr…

And thanks for answering my question again :)

My own name with a dash in between them(darn! domain names)
Spanish meaning of ‘Chika’ is anonymous to the English ‘Chick’!
Forgive me! I’m harmless :)

“Ray”-”boy” was formed when i was kid ,, back in Goa . People had tough time calling my real name. So they took the First part of the name “Ray” and added “Boy” coz i was a kid.
Somehow the name stuck over the years.. it went through college, my work and now even my clientele … So it makes me laugh when the GM of a multinational company calls on my cell and is like “Can i speak to Rayboy?” Rayboy has various variations though … i think its the language accent.
Some call me Raaaaaybouy, some call my Ryboy, Raybot … and it goes on.

My nickname came from my email: caffeine_queenie. But I decided to stick with the queenie part because it sounded fun, and one of my friends gave me a mug that said “Queen of Everything”. So I guess “queenie” is dala3 for “queen” :p
