closest of my friends were dub'd "the fruit group" each had a fruit-y nickIt actually started because of the SNL "Mango" skits. My one Sag Sun bestie and me were always doing our own improv to match the actual skit/characters
She was "Mango"
but, somehow I became...
Kiwi Oo;
A short while later there was a charity walk/marathon where you could group up and a local business or whatnot would contribute to the charity for your participation/place in the walk. We needed a name. Since we already had three fruit (our Scorpy bestie had always been called "Cherry/Apples" by our classmates), we went with "Fruit Group" and each of us took a different fruit, the original 5.
Mango
Kiwi
(Cherry/Apples) -> (Chiquita) Banana
Coco(nut) (aka : Evil Lime)
Tangy(erine)
By the end of high school there were 13 of us total. In all of the group activities that we could do together - we were all known as fruit (group).
We still use those nicknames today. ^^;
some of our other nicknames for each other wouldn't be PC for the board. Most of mine... um... bad behavior.
I was/am always called Thumbelina, Littlefoot, Tails, and Shorty too.
> but I had those prior to high school <
Worst non-malicious nickname I was ever given...
toss up between motor/metal mouth.
